Question
Nvidia Reaffirms $3-4T 2030 Data Center Capex Outlook as 2026 Run-Rate Nears $800B
Direct answer
Nvidia management reiterated expectations for global data center capital expenditures to scale toward $3-4 trillion annually by 2030. In 2026, aggregate hyperscaler capex across the top five operators is pacing near $800 billion, supporting sustained hardware order pipelines. The infrastructure expansion is generating multi-fold revenue growth across the memory and networking supply chain, with Micron reporting Q2 2026 revenues of $41.5 billion, representing a 432% increase over two years.
