OpenAI, Oracle rethink Texas expansion, though Stargate buildout continues

What happened

OpenAI and Oracle have canceled a planned expansion at their Texas AI campus, indicating a shift towards more flexible deployment of compute capacity rather than a full-scale retreat from megaprojects. This reflects a reassessment of AI infrastructure economics and technology cycles. Neutral: This signals a potential moderation in the pace of hyperscale AI infrastructure buildout, which could temper near-term demand forecasts for high-end AI chips and memory, but the core Stargate project continues.
