Author categorizes Mag 7 into AI Burners, Receivers, and Storytellers, arguing AI monetizers like Alphabet and Nvidia should outperform capex-heavy Burners and hype-driven Storytellers into 2026, and discloses long GOOGL plus a small NVDA position.
GOOGL — LONG Author calls Alphabet the underrated AI 'Receiver' and states a long GOOGL position. The mechanism is that YouTube AI ads and Cloud are already monetizing AI, and Alphabet is building its own TPU chips (5M units projected by 2027) so it avoids paying the 'Nvidia tax.' The author expects the Burners vs Receivers gap to define winners and losers in 2026, with Alphabet already up 65% in 2025. Main stated risk: the broader 4:1 AI spend-to-earn ratio cannot last forever, though the author frames Alphabet as a receiver.
Alphabet — This one's underrated. Up 65% in 2025, best in the Mag 7. Building their own TPU chips (5M units projected by 2027), so they're not paying the "Nvidia tax." YouTube AI ads and Cloud are actually monetizing. Just hit $4 trillion market cap.
NVDA — LONG Author classifies Nvidia as an AI 'Receiver' and says he holds a small NVDA position. The mechanism is that Nvidia sells the infrastructure for the AI gold rush, and every Burner's capex check goes into its pocket, with 78% margins. The main stated risk is margin compression toward the mid-70s. The author frames the Burners vs Receivers gap as defining winners and losers in 2026.
Nvidia — Obviously. Selling shovels in a gold rush. 78% margins (though compressing toward mid-70s). Every Burner's capex check goes into Jensen's pocket.
