"For every dollar spent by the US Hyperscalers, we think approximately 40 to 50% of that is coming directly into the Asia supply chain." The AI datacenter buildout is still in its "mid-cycle." The massive CapEx from US tech giants directly benefits Asian semiconductor foundries and hardware manufacturers, making any price correction in these equities a buying opportunity.
