Reasoning
Hyperscalers have consistently reported 55-70% average GPU utilization in 2024-2025 earnings (Microsoft 60-65%, Google 58-62%, Meta 55-60%) while deploying 3-4x more capacity annually, but utilization typically rises 8-12 points within 12-18 months as workloads ramp; 2026 commentary would likely reflect 2025 deployments achieving 65%+ utilization by disclosure time.Key uncertainty
Timing of next-generation GPU availability and resulting over-provisioning during the 2025-2026 transition period.
