Capital flow drill-down
Money in, revenue out: the full breakdown.
Issue 14 · Week 30 of 2026.
The four-category capital scorecard expanded with named transactions, burn-to-revenue context, and per-category trends across recent issues. Each row corresponds to a row in the summary table on the issue page.
Capital flow scorecard

The read
The capital position did not change, but the obligation did. Camellia turns the abstract infrastructure plan into a utility-backed schedule with full infrastructure-cost recovery and up to 1 GW of curtailment; runway analysis that ignores contracted infrastructure commitments is increasingly incomplete.

The read
The ratio moved the wrong way for near-term returns but the utility structure is more mature: OpenAI pays the infrastructure cost and offers dispatchable load. Expect large campuses to be financed and permitted as grid partnerships rather than ordinary commercial-load connections.

The read
A credible AMD rack can reduce both supply concentration and equipment financing risk, but only after deliveries exist. Neoclouds should negotiate Helios options now while keeping revenue commitments tied to measured availability and customer demand, not vendor performance projections.

The read
The facility envelope is now part of accelerator procurement. Private-cluster buyers should compare complete rack power, cooling, fabric, support, and software maturity across Helios and Rubin; component-level benchmark wins are not enough to underwrite a 246 kW deployment.
