Wells Fargo and Goldman Sachs executives have flagged significant risks in the current AI infrastructure boom, citing upward pressure on prices, supply chain constraints, and the heavy leverage required to finance buildouts. While Goldman Sachs reported a surge in equities revenue, its CEO noted that rising financing costs could impact project viability. This creates a nuanced outlook for tech hardware buyers and infrastructure developers. Marvell Technologies announced new high-speed interconnect chips targeting AI data center scaling, supporting the hardware narrative. Microsoft is set to report its first record revenue since October 2025, while Pivotal Research upgraded Meta Platforms to Buy with a $930 price target. These developments contrast with broader macro warnings, highlighting strength in specific mega-cap tech fundamentals.
