OpenAI looms over earnings from tech hyperscalers

OpenAI, a private company valued at over $850 billion, has become a major influence on tech earnings this week as four hyperscalers (Amazon, Alphabet, Meta, and Microsoft, the largest computing companies) report quarterly results. After a Wall Street Journal report suggested OpenAI missed revenue and user growth targets and may struggle to afford its data center expansion, investors are closely watching how this affects the companies that have invested billions in OpenAI or depend on its technology.
