Daily Briefing — Nov 12, 2026
AI's financial plumbing was tested from every direction. Anthropic opened its IPO roadshow at a valuation well below where investors were pricing it a few months ago, and Nvidia's board met late Wednesday to weigh the future of CEO Jensen Huang. Underneath the headlines, the demand signal held: CoreWeave raised its guidance, memory makers rallied on long-term supply commitments, and TSMC reported October revenue up nearly 60% from a year earlier. Power and connectivity kept moving to the front of the line, with Anthropic buying 1.7 GW of its own gas generation, Google underwriting new clean power in Malaysia, and carriers lighting fiber to new GPU markets. Sentiment is fragile, but the physical build-out is still being contracted.
