Meta Raises CapEx up to $145B, Microsoft Copilot Sales Up 33%, Elon Musk Battles OpenAI Lawyer

April 30, 2026

Episode Description

Jefferies Senior Analyst Brent Thill joins Senior Finance Editor Ken Brown to break down Meta’s massive $145 billion CapEx forecast and why Mark Zuckerberg’s monetization plan is rattling Wall Street. We also talk with RBC Capital Markets’ Rishi Jaluria about Microsoft’s $9 billion in AI revenue and the enterprise adoption of Copilot, and we get into the "brutal" cross-examination of Elon Musk in the OpenAI trial with Rocket Drew. Lastly, we discuss Starlink’s declining revenue per user with Theo Wayt and the technical hurdles of GPU utilization at xAI with Stephanie Palazzolo.
