Pricing the AI buildout
Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon, Meta, and Oracle are spending on AI infrastructure at a pace with no precedent. Set the growth, margin, capex, and discount-rate assumptions below and see the per-share value they imply. Whether those assumptions are right is for you to decide.

How to read this. Under the assumptions you pick, the model returns a fair value per share. It deliberately shows no market price and takes no view on whether any stock is cheap, dear, or worth owning — that judgment is yours. This is an educational tool for exploring how assumptions drive value, not a prediction and not investment advice.
