In the 1800s, railroads became the infrastructure that businesses depended on. Once the tracks were laid, every additional customer, shipment and service created recurring revenue with attractive economics. Today, Microsoft, Amazon and Google are building the digital equivalent. They are spending hundreds of billions on data centers, AI chips, networking, power infrastructure and software platforms. Once these "tracks" are in place, businesses will increasingly build their operations on top of them: ๐Ÿš‚ AI agents ๐Ÿš‚ AI copilots ๐Ÿš‚ AI-powered customer service ๐Ÿš‚ AI software development ๐Ÿš‚ AI analytics and automation Just as companies once paid railroads to move goods, future businesses may pay cloud providers every month to move intelligence. This is why I believe these companies are evolving from traditional SaaS models into something potentially even more powerful... Infrastructure platforms with massive recurring revenue streams, high switching costs and strong returns on incremental capital. ๐€๐ง๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž๐ง ๐ญ๐ก๐ž๐ซ๐ž ๐ข๐ฌ $ASML (ASML Holding NV). Every railroad needed suppliers that sold the picks, shovels and maintenance equipment. ASML is positioned to benefit from the continued expansion of AI infrastructure through its installed base of advanced lithography systems. ๐˜–๐˜ท๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ ๐˜ต๐˜ช๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ, ๐˜ด๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ท๐˜ช๐˜ค๐˜ฆ, ๐˜ฎ๐˜ข๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ค๐˜ฆ, ๐˜ถ๐˜ฑ๐˜จ๐˜ณ๐˜ข๐˜ฅ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ด๐˜ถ๐˜ฑ๐˜ฑ๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ๐˜ต ๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ญ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ฃ๐˜ฆ๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜ค๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ด๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จ๐˜ญ๐˜บ ๐˜ท๐˜ข๐˜ญ๐˜ถ๐˜ข๐˜ฃ๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ค๐˜ถ๐˜ณ๐˜ณ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จ ๐˜ค๐˜ฐ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฑ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ต ๐˜ฐ๐˜ง ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ฃ๐˜ถ๐˜ด๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด๐˜ด. The AI race isn't about building smarter models. It's about building the infrastructure that the world's future businesses will depend on.
