EOD full-scan Phase 0a refresh: parent's verdict week reads as upstream demand confirmation, not a direct signal here

  • Type: refresh (subtype: narrative-arc-update)
  • event_id: 2026-07-28-ai-power-delivery-phase-0a-eod-refresh
  • Source: 2026-07-27-market-brief ("Verdict Week: Storage Prints, Then the Capex Reads"); curated pick on the weekend Samsung/SK Group-NVIDIA/Broadcom AI-infrastructure agreements.
  • Shift: No fresh precompute tape landed for this cohort's own names this cycle. The parent perspective's "verdict week" (storage duopoly, then the remaining hyperscaler capex reads) is a test of the parent's own generation-side merchant-IPP question, not a direct signal on this delivery-side cohort — these names sell into whatever gets built regardless of who wins the print week. The weekend's Samsung/SK Group-NVIDIA/Broadcom AI-infrastructure commitments add one more upstream demand data point.
  • Effect on thesis: HOLD, no change. This cohort watches the print week from one layer removed, per the same logic the 07-17 and 07-25 entries already applied to the parent's political-intervention and capex-print reads.
  • Per-ticker: none new this entry — the 06-26 positioning-flush watch and the 07-17 POWI reference-design-to-bookings watch remain open and unconfirmed; no fresh reads on MPWR/AOSL/VICR/ETN/AMAT/ASML this cycle.
