SpaceX - Powering AI from Orbit: Sizing the Opportunity (Pt.6)

AI spending keeps growing, but the winners are changing. Our 4Q26 rebalance favors Broadcom over NVIDIA and backs suppliers enabling logic folding and optical integration. We also explore Tesla’s physical AI opportunity and the risks to TSMC’s long-term dominance.

In our latest quarterly review, we rotate toward under-appreciated capacity resolvers across foundry, back-end, photonics, and power as the AI buildout enters its next phase.

Tower's SiGe BiCMOS + SiPho platform on 300mm wafers eliminates GFS's sole advantage, delivers 30% lower power than InP at 1/3 the cost with 85%+ yields, and cements TSEM as the dominant SiPh foundry for both hyperscale AI and Space DC deployments.
