Investor read: concentration fear outran confirmed damage. Google's Marvell deal is material, but no Broadcom project cancellation has been disclosed. Broadcom's $10.8 billion quarterly AI-chip revenue grew 143%, and management guided to $16 billion next quarter. The near-term test is Marvell earnings on August 27, followed by Broadcom on September 2. Main risks are supplier-share loss and financing exposure; the offset is a rapidly expanding AI-compute market.

Investor read: the rally improves Strategy's funding economics, but price beta is not the same as Bitcoin-per-share growth. Last week it sold $333.7m of MSTR, bought no Bitcoin and lifted its dollar reserve to $4.8bn.
