科技巨头今年计划大幅增加资本支出，这几乎会让亚马逊、谷歌和元宇宙平台的自由现金流消耗殆尽。 这将迫使其中部分企业做出艰难抉择，比如是否终止股票回购，或是进行更多举债。 好消息是，这些科技巨头均具备进一步举债数千亿美元的能力，远超其当前的负债规模。 近年来，多数科技巨头开始通过分红和股票回购的方式向股东返还现金，谷歌和元宇宙平台便是双管齐 下的代表。但今年这一举措或难以为继 —— 为扩大人工智能算力而产生的资本支出，几乎会吞噬企业 经营活动产生的全部现金。 谷歌和元宇宙平台已开始缩减股票回购规模。不过，取消分红一事却棘手得多，因为两家企业均在 2024 年才首次推出分红政策，而这一政策此前显著提升了其股票对投资者的吸引力。 亚马逊则无需面临这一难题：该公司自 2022 年起便未进行过股票回购，且从未实施过分红。但据标普 全球市场情报数据显示，亚马逊今年计划资本支出达 2000 亿美元，高于分析师预估的 1780 亿美元经营 活动现金流，这意味着与其他两家企业不同，亚马逊今年必然会出现现金消耗。 去年 11 月，亚马逊发行了 150 亿美元债券以充实现金储备，截至 12 月 31 日，其手持现金达 1230 亿美 ...

Core Viewpoint - Google is reportedly planning to replace Chrome OS with a new operating system called "Aluminium OS," which is based on Android, raising concerns about the potential loss of Chrome OS's advantages as a cloud-based system [6][10]. Group 1: Chrome OS Characteristics - Chrome OS is fundamentally different from traditional PC operating systems, focusing on being a "cloud computer" that primarily runs web applications [3]. - The advantages of Chrome OS include low hardware requirements, allowing it to run on devices with lower specifications than mainstream smartphones, thus keeping device prices low [3]. - Its cloud-based nature makes Chrome OS ideal for educational and office environments, as it allows institutions to restrict access to specific online applications and limit local data storage [5]. Group 2: Concerns About Aluminium OS - The transition to Aluminium OS, which is based on Android, may compromise the cloud computing attributes of Chrome OS, as Android typically requires higher hardware performance [8]. - The new system aims to support more local applications, potentially enhancing productivity for tasks that require local processing, such as video editing and AI training [8]. - However, the shift to a more local storage-oriented system could lead to decreased security and manageability, raising concerns for existing Chrome OS users [10].
