Amazon, Microsoft, Google, and Meta announced a combined $710 billion investment in AI capital expenditures for 2026, signaling strong growth ambitions. Google's CEO Sundar Pichai highlighted being "compute-constrained," which boosted stocks like Apple, Amazon, and Google that are already monetizing CapEx.
