description: "Just some notes from $Nebius(NBIS.US) fireside chat at Goldman Sachs Tech Conference:TLDR: Yep, it's bullish.1. Order book extends into H1 2028 which is 2 quarters further out than at Q2 ER.Arkady said "people are demanding tens of thousands of vGPUs and GPUs now. So we see demand today as unlimited."Bro...what?!!At Q2, they said that all of 2027 could be sold today. But Nebius having visibility ~1.5 years away massively de-risks their ~5GW contracted power target and their ~$25B of FY26 capex.On demand, Arkady also said that demand visibility now extends to 24+ months (vs. 18 months previously).This is HUGE because demand duration is a huge crux for neocloud bears (kinda makes sense why). Even $Coreweave(CRWV.US) CEO said at the GS Conference that they are "struggling to meet demand everyday."2. "We do not pre-sell much. We are focusing on free capacity, which we will be selling later"I think two things are happening here with NebiusFirst - this is the opposite of $Coreweave(CRWV.US)'s model where their ~$104B backlog is take/pay dynamics. Nebius are instead choosing to sit on uncontracted 2027 capacity so they can sell into rising prices, kinda like how $Micron Tech(MU.US) and co. were doing pre-LTAs. Second - keeping some spare capacity keeps room for longer-term strategic partners arriving into 2027 (which will be extremely supply-constrained). I.e. enterprise names coming via the $Palantir Tech(PLTR.US) partnership. I think both reasons make sense, I'm fairly confident that 2027 pricing will be higher. 3. "We actually have a list of new customers that are looking for any of the older generation chips that come available." This lines up with $Coreweave(CRWV.US) disclosing at Q2 an A100 contract priced out to 2029 and completely guts the residual-value thesis bears like Burry lean on. 4. $Shopify (SHOP.US) "used open-weight models, trained it with their own data repetitively, and they achieved the quality which is higher than they had with GPT-5 and 6."Feels like that's the whole enterprise adoption thesis summarized....narrow domain, pvt data, repeated loop, open weights > fronteir, at a fraction of the cost. Probably also why the token factor and the Tavily acq. matter.So yeah, Nebius' entire infrastructure goes kinda crazy. More than just GPU rental.5. Contract mix Marc: 3-6 month short-term deals go out "at a multiple of the ARR per megawatt" of the core. 1-3 year medium-term deals are "the lion's share" and 5+ year hyperscaler deals were done "with the explicit intent that we are looking for the capitalization benefit."- So the longer duration $Microsoft(MSFT.US) + $Meta Platforms(META.US) contracts are lower risk collateral for financing the build- the opportunistic short-duration surge contracts at materially higher pricing are the top-ups.- and the 1-3 year book with AI natives and enterprises (priced above hyperscaler deals + prepaid) are the core + fastest growing segment.Just for a summary of the points I found most interesting / different from Q2 earnings.Cool to also see the "the vision that Arkady has is us becoming a hyperscaler." I've been sharing the same vision for some time now, and is why Nebius ultimately deserve to trade multiples higher than Coreweave for example."
