    "summary": "Reported actuals and management guidance retain each issuer's accounting definition and fiscal period. The ten-company future series is a modeled calendar-year investment envelope using explicit company scenarios, not a reconciled cash PP&E total or an AI-only market-size estimate.",
    "guidance": "Guidance is the company's expectation as of its source date, not consensus. Where first-party call text was inaccessible, a clearly identified reproduced issuer transcript, syndicated issuer presentation or newswire account is linked. No 2027–29 street consensus was available and none is fabricated.",
    "houseView": "These numeric forecasts were newly drafted for this site on September 13, 2026. They extend the original Ideas' demand-to-memory-to-equipment and power-constraint reasoning; they are not historical published Alex Chen forecasts. Base, downside and upside have no assigned probabilities.",
    "calendarAlignment": "Microsoft's $175bn guide is explicitly CY2026. Oracle's $90–95bn guide is FY2027 ending May 31; its CY2026 house estimate uses a separately explained quarterly bridge. Alibaba's March-end fiscal actuals remain separate from its calendar house estimates. All other modeled years run January–December.",
    "fx": "CNY house projections use a constant 6.7851 CNY per USD, the June 30, 2026 convenience translation rate cited in Baidu's release. This is a scenario assumption for future years, not an FX forecast. Historical actuals stay in original currency.",
    "aggregation": "Only houseForecast values are summed for the annual envelope. Differences in gross/net, cash/accrual, finance leases and construction-in-progress definitions remain. Intercompany leases or shared projects may represent overlapping underlying assets, so this is a budget monitoring sum, not an audited or deduplicated economic-investment total. Changes reflect the stated model assumptions.",
    "doubleCounting": "Cloud procurement commitments, customer prepayments, financing announcements, supplier revenues, foundry capital budgets and landlords' spend are not added to the buyer total. A supplier's sale may already include memory or components bought from another supplier.",
    "relationships": "Paths show operational transmission and relevant companies. Only sourced relationships are labeled disclosed; no inferred supplier allocation dollars are published. Supplier membership is not a buy recommendation.",
    "excluded": "Private-company spending without comparable published financials—including OpenAI, Anthropic, xAI and ByteDance—is not assigned a numeric contribution. Their workload demand is visible in the software layer. Multi-year pledges are not treated as one-year expenditure."
