Goldman Sachs estimates about $5.3 trillion in combined capex for Meta, Microsoft, Amazon and Alphabet from 2025–2030, and a baseline $7.6 trillion across 2026–2031 for compute, data centers and power, with about $725 billion planned for 2026—even as the Magnificent Seven slip from their 52-week highs.
