Alphabet and other major hyperscalers are under close watch as their Q2 earnings reports reveal how well they manage capital expenditures (capex) against returns on investment (ROI). Capex for hyperscalers is expected to hit around $750 billion by 2026, which is pressuring free cash flow to multi-year lows and leading to increased equity and debt financing. However, market sentiment is improving as these companies hint at more disciplined capex strategies, with expectations that free cash flow will grow again by 2027-2028. This has led to a bullish outlook on hyperscalers and semiconductor sectors, with the S&P 500 seen as attractive due to strong forward earnings growth prospects.
