Serenity: The AI Supply Chain Boom Is Far From Over, With Storage, Packaging, and Power Sectors Poised for Long-Term Demand Surge

Odaily News "White-Haired Stock God" Serenity shared insights on the AI industry chain on the X platform, noting that AI infrastructure demand is driving multiple sectors—including storage, advanced packaging, computing power financing, optical communications, power supply, and electronic components—into a long-term expansion cycle. The AI supply chain remains in a phase of rapid growth.

In the storage sector, Serenity cited UBS forecasts indicating that traditional DRAM manufacturers (such as Micron) could see gross margins reach an unprecedented 95% by 2027, potentially even surpassing the gross margin levels of HBM products. Additionally, SanDisk's long-term agreements already cover approximately two-thirds of its 2028 production capacity, with minimum contracted revenue reaching $93 billion. Given its current market cap of around $239 billion, this suggests its future revenue targets could persist for years, making it difficult to simply classify the company as a traditional cyclical stock.

On the cloud computing infrastructure front, CoreWeave has signed agreements to use Nvidia A100 GPUs through 2029. This is a positive development for emerging cloud computing companies such as Nebius and Iren, and it also weakens some investors' bearish thesis centered on the rapid depreciation of older GPUs.

AI model companies are also continuing to grow at a pace that exceeds expectations. Frontier AI labs are still maintaining extremely rapid growth rates, and a slowdown in growth would actually be a cause for concern. The market projects that Anthropic's 2028 revenue could reach $190 billion to $200 billion.

However, advanced packaging and semiconductor infrastructure remain core bottlenecks. The head of advanced packaging at TSMC has stated that in the coming years, the industry may face not only memory shortages but also tight supply of ABF substrates.

Serenity concluded that the AI infrastructure supply chain is continuously expanding. From GPUs, storage, and advanced packaging to power, optical communications, and electronic components, every segment is showing a long-term demand growth trend. The AI supply chain is still in a high-speed development stage.
