Intelligent Alpha has taken a position in Marvell, moving into the custom silicon space as part of a shift in hardware focus. This investment reflects a view that custom silicon offers more exciting growth opportunities compared to other areas. Long due to new exposure and potential upside in the expanding custom silicon market. If Marvell fails to execute or market demand for custom silicon disappoints.

"We own companies like a ServiceNow. I do think some of those really big enterprise deployments are going to be harder for AI to displace." While AI threatens generic SaaS, "System of Record" companies like ServiceNow are too deeply integrated into enterprise workflows to be easily ripped out by AI agents. They are the defensive play in software. Long Quality/Defensive SaaS. General rotation out of software if AI capex crowds out software budgets.

Hyperscalers (Google, Amazon) raised CapEx guidance by nearly 50%. Nvidia is currently generating the vast majority of free cash flow among the "Mag 7" (excluding Apple). The increased CapEx budgets from big tech flow directly into Nvidia's top line. The setup into earnings is strong because the demand signal (CapEx spend) has already been confirmed by the customers. LONG. High expectations bar; potential geopolitical restrictions on sales to China.
