Brookfield is pooling money with Apollo, Blackstone and KKR in a $500 billion Nvidia-arranged consortium, alongside its own $100 billion Nvidia venture. Fully raised, the two would cover under a tenth of the $7 trillion Brookfield expects the AI buildout to cost over the next decade.

Chevron says Gov. Greg Abbott's moratorium on new data center permits could delay the investment decision on its nearly 3-gigawatt Kilby project until 2027. For one of the largest new US data center projects, the date now depends mainly on a state permit.

Goldman Sachs expects the five biggest US hyperscalers to spend about $1.2 trillion on AI infrastructure in 2027, 50% more than in 2026. The forecast is $100 billion above consensus, and the bank lists power, labor and memory chips as the limits on building it.

Columbia's Stijn Van Nieuwerburgh estimates the US AI build at $10.3 trillion through 2032, needing $3.7 trillion a year in revenue to pay off. The bar is 37 times the roughly $100 billion OpenAI and Anthropic book today, a gap the model gives about seven years to close.

Oracle invoked force majeure on Project Jupiter, a New Mexico AI campus for OpenAI now expected to run about a year late. The delay postpones the higher post-completion return on Blue Owl's roughly $3 billion of equity.

A column on en.sedaily.com puts four US hyperscalers at as much as $760 billion of capital spending this year, up from $412.5 billion between them in 2025. It takes the dot-com burst as evidence the hardware outlives the money.
