WEBVTT

00:00:00.009 --> 00:00:02.119
And Dan, we just heard from our colleague Ed

00:00:02.129 --> 00:00:05.038
Ludlow there saying that at least over the CEO of

00:00:05.049 --> 00:00:07.009
Qualcomm, he seems to think that we could see

00:00:07.019 --> 00:00:09.500
some meaningful substance behind this as soon as next year

00:00:10.429 --> 00:00:12.489
. Look in my view, it is in 1995

00:00:12.500 --> 00:00:14.140
moment. Uh you know, in terms of what

00:00:14.148 --> 00:00:16.478
we saw with the internet, I think there's 1/4

00:00:16.489 --> 00:00:19.309
industrial revolution that's playing out and they look some will

00:00:19.318 --> 00:00:21.370
call it hype. I didn't think it was just

00:00:21.379 --> 00:00:23.469
starting. I mean, if I look at NVIDIA

00:00:23.478 --> 00:00:26.318
, you look at Microsoft Google, we're in the

00:00:26.329 --> 00:00:29.109
early days of what I view as an$800 billion

00:00:29.120 --> 00:00:32.340
incremental market opportunity, which is why I think right

00:00:32.348 --> 00:00:34.978
now this is the way of focus of every tech

00:00:34.990 --> 00:00:37.279
investor. It's interesting you, you kind of make

00:00:37.289 --> 00:00:40.130
that reference to of course, 99 which we all

00:00:40.139 --> 00:00:42.509
know sort of ended up being the big bubble bursting

00:00:42.668 --> 00:00:44.048
. But then of course, saying that this is

00:00:44.060 --> 00:00:46.618
more like 95. I, I think it's interesting

00:00:46.630 --> 00:00:48.490
too to see the types of companies because we've been

00:00:48.500 --> 00:00:50.029
having this discussion on the air for the last few

00:00:50.039 --> 00:00:52.340
weeks about just how much garbage was out there back

00:00:52.348 --> 00:00:54.209
in the nineties when it came to dot com.

00:00:54.219 --> 00:00:56.380
Companies and everybody put dot com on its name.

00:00:56.389 --> 00:00:58.209
I know we've seen some of that here with A

00:00:58.219 --> 00:01:00.700
I but it does seem like most of the companies

00:01:00.709 --> 00:01:03.298
that are at the center of this are well established

00:01:03.310 --> 00:01:04.079
. Uh They have a track record of revenue growth

00:01:04.088 --> 00:01:07.069
. They have strong balance sheets and more importantly,

00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:10.269
they have a certain trust with investors. Well,

00:01:10.278 --> 00:01:11.359
that's the difference. And I think what you see

00:01:11.370 --> 00:01:15.400
, it's not just the Microsoft, the Googles,

00:01:15.409 --> 00:01:15.859
the Metas and others. I can tell you,

00:01:15.870 --> 00:01:19.260
I mean, traveling the globe the last few months

00:01:19.519 --> 00:01:22.120
, it's just real. The theme and I'll talk

00:01:22.129 --> 00:01:26.540
, it's a 95 internet moment, a 2007 iphone

00:01:26.549 --> 00:01:29.168
moment. I mean, those, that's really what

00:01:29.180 --> 00:01:32.239
we're seeing here sort of play out because what this

00:01:32.250 --> 00:01:34.733
is doing is that for every dollar of clouds spend

00:01:34.742 --> 00:01:38.953
, we think 35 to 40 cents of every dollar

00:01:38.962 --> 00:01:42.582
now incrementally, you could have A I opportunities and

00:01:42.593 --> 00:01:45.302
growth and there's a lot of 2nd, 3rd,

00:01:45.313 --> 00:01:47.611
4th derivatives. I think we're just in the early

00:01:47.623 --> 00:01:49.123
days of playing on. That's right. Right now

00:01:49.132 --> 00:01:51.733
, investors, they're, they're looking far through the

00:01:51.742 --> 00:01:53.361
trees. It's on this, like fed speak and

00:01:53.373 --> 00:01:57.802
yields. I think everyone's looking through to see what

00:01:57.813 --> 00:02:00.605
this transformational growth theme that I've used something we haven't

00:02:00.614 --> 00:02:02.754
seen in 30 years. I want to talk about

00:02:02.765 --> 00:02:06.275
some of the specific names here, we've mentioned some

00:02:06.286 --> 00:02:07.094
of them already. Of course, you have Microsoft

00:02:07.105 --> 00:02:12.094
and NVIDIA feels like Microsoft in particular has emerged as

00:02:12.105 --> 00:02:15.784
the clear leader here in the A I arms race

00:02:15.795 --> 00:02:16.915
as you call it in your notes. But Dan

00:02:16.996 --> 00:02:20.075
, it's really early when you think of some of

00:02:20.085 --> 00:02:22.105
the other big heavy weights out there, some of

00:02:22.115 --> 00:02:23.145
the big mega cap tech names, I mean,

00:02:23.156 --> 00:02:25.969
what will that catch up look like? Yeah,

00:02:25.979 --> 00:02:29.558
and Katie, this is not a zero sum game

00:02:29.569 --> 00:02:30.308
, but in other words, OK, it's Microsoft

00:02:30.319 --> 00:02:32.569
. But when you look at what Google is doing

00:02:32.580 --> 00:02:36.550
in terms of the opportunity, not just on search

00:02:36.558 --> 00:02:38.689
but also on cloud, you look what meta is

00:02:38.699 --> 00:02:40.210
doing on the consumer side. You know, ultimately

00:02:40.219 --> 00:02:43.118
, I believe this is really to start from a

00:02:43.129 --> 00:02:45.849
cloud perspective when I look at names like sales force

00:02:45.860 --> 00:02:47.439
dot com and tier, you know, as well

00:02:47.449 --> 00:02:51.308
as a handful of names like Mango DB and others

00:02:51.319 --> 00:02:52.899
. And I think what you're really starting to see

00:02:52.909 --> 00:02:53.528
is a, is a rereading. Now, some

00:02:53.538 --> 00:02:55.838
will say that that's froth and hype. But I

00:02:55.849 --> 00:02:59.819
disagree. I think we're really now just starting to

00:02:59.830 --> 00:03:00.899
do what I view as an A I gold rush

00:03:00.909 --> 00:03:05.008
playing out in this Game of Thrones. That's happened

00:03:05.020 --> 00:03:05.899
among big tech.
