Gate Milestones

Growth is gated by milestones. Cost step-changes and capability unlocks are tied to specific milestones.

2027
Y1
vera rubin ship
Vera Rubin NVL72 ships H2 2026; 10x inference cost reduction
Unlocks: Closes inference TCO gap with ASICs; unlocks enterprise inference demand
NVIDIA GTC 2026: 3.6 EFLOPS, 260TB/s bandwidth, 1/10 cost per million tokens
2029
Y3
feynman ship
Feynman architecture ships 2028; consumes 60% TSMC CoWoS
Unlocks: Next-gen product cycle maintains performance leadership
NVIDIA roadmap: annual cadence Blackwell → Vera Rubin → Feynman
2031
Y5
enterprise ai scale
Enterprise + sovereign AI exceed 50% of DC revenue
Unlocks: Revenue diversification reduces hyperscaler concentration risk
Sovereign AI already $30B (14%); agentic AI inflection per Jensen Huang
2028
Y2
capex downcycle
Hyperscaler capex cut 20-30% as AI ROI disappoints
Unlocks: Demand destruction; pricing pressure; inventory build
NVIDIA 10-K cyclicality risk; Cisco dot-com precedent
2031
Y5
trough
Revenue troughs as AI capex stabilizes at lower level
Unlocks: Growth resumes at inflationary rate only
Historical semiconductor cycle: 2-3 year downturns typical
