Market Performance - Overseas computing power recovery led to a rise of over 4% in the Communication ETF (515880) and the ChiNext AI ETF (159388) during trading today [1] Factors Driving the Increase - Recent US earnings reports indicate several key points: - Capital expenditures are accelerating, with Google projecting 2026 capital spending between $175 billion and $185 billion, nearly doubling year-on-year; Meta's full-year capital expenditure guidance is $115 billion to $135 billion, a 73% year-on-year increase; Amazon's guidance is $200 billion, a 53% increase year-on-year [2] - Microsoft did not provide full-year guidance but noted a seasonal quarter-on-quarter decline, likely due to factors like financing leases. The market previously expected a 42% growth in North American CSP capital expenditures for 2026, but recent earnings reports show capital expenditure growth significantly exceeding expectations [2] CPO Penetration and Market Sentiment - CPO penetration is exceeding expectations, but attention is needed on scale-up and scale-out dynamics. The consensus is that scale-up will dominate CPO, while scale-out remains led by pluggable optical modules. The domestic optical module leaders may secure some orders in the scale-up segment, indicating that CPO penetration in scale-up represents incremental growth rather than a replacement [3] - Market sentiment has rebounded from previous lows, with US markets recovering last Friday, influencing A-shares today. Both markets have faced issues related to funding and sentiment, with A-shares experiencing declining trading volumes since late January [3] Future Outlook - US earnings reports reaffirm the certainty of AI, with ongoing shortages in computing power. Google reported that Gemini 3.0 is the fastest model in its history, with over 750 million monthly active users for Gemini applications. Google also announced a partnership with Apple to develop the next-generation Apple foundational model. The management indicated that investments in AI infrastructure will gradually increase throughout the year, with a continued tight supply of computing power expected [4] - The focus remains on core segments like optical modules and servers, which are positioned at the heart of the global AI industry chain. With capital expenditures for 2026 significantly exceeding expectations, the outlook for optical modules and servers is strengthening, making Communication ETF (515880) and ChiNext AI ETF (159388) attractive for interested investors [4]
