Despite the broader tech selloff, the underlying AI infrastructure narrative remains robust, anchored by TSMC's record performance and the 'fierce' competition among hyperscalers for advanced chip capacity. Germany's announcement of a partnership with Nvidia for automation and Danaher's integration of Nvidia AI labs signal deepening institutional adoption. However, the scarcity of capacity highlights the bottleneck nature of the supply chain, benefiting foundries and equipment makers while pressuring customers who cannot secure allocation, creating a divergence between AI enablers and AI adopters.
