Terry — Citi Global TMT readout: NAND TAM $50B to $500B by 2027, AMD CPU TAM $60B to $220B, optical testing capacity about 100x short

One conference readout that touches three live theses at once: SanDisk's contract structure (half of shipments now, two-thirds by 2028, gross margin near 80% at a floor price) is the memory pricing-discipline mechanism, and the CPO testing-capacity figure reframes the optical bottleneck as a test-and-qualification problem rather than a photonics one. Second-hand conference notes; treat the TAM figures as the speaker's, not reported results.

Citi 全球 TMT 刚开完。昨夜三大指数连跌,存储逆势炸,海力士新高、闪迪美光跟涨,Meta 推个人 AI 智能体也暴拉。盘面是结果,会上讲的才是锚点,做个总结: 闪迪:存储在改成公用事业。NBM 四件套 ——

Why it's worth your time
