AI Infrastructure Analytics Portfolio

Data-driven business analysis on AI infrastructure companies, using public financial data, company filings, and market indicators.

In development

A personal analytics portfolio for business analytics preparation: framing questions, structuring public inputs, and planning visuals for AI infrastructure companies. The first company profile collects NVIDIA filing figures on a dedicated page; cross-company comparison remains in development.

Overview

How this fits CM Terminal

Three lanes—same site, different deliverables.

Research

Long-form notes and frameworks.Systems context and falsifiable written tests of ideas.

Tools

Interactive valuation and finance tooling.Hands-on reverse framing and consistency checks.

Analytics

Structured business analytics projects.Datasets, methodology notes, dashboards, and case studies.

Core project

AI Infrastructure Company Comparison Dashboard

Compares selected names across growth, profitability, R&D intensity, CapEx intensity, and supply-chain positioning—once annual metrics are collected and reconciled from public sources.

Metric framework

Planned metrics

Definitions for the broader comparison framework. Collected company profiles will align metrics under this rule set before cross-company views.

Revenue

Reported top-line sales for the fiscal period.

Revenue Growth

Year-over-year change in revenue with aligned fiscal periods.

Gross Margin

Gross profit divided by revenue from the same statements.

Operating Margin

Operating income divided by revenue before non-operating noise.

R&D Intensity

R&D expense divided by revenue using reported line items.

CapEx Intensity

Capital expenditure divided by revenue under a single documented rule set.

Methodology note

How work will be done

Company selection

Names span silicon, equipment, memory, networking, and facility-level roles for comparison design—not for ranking or recommendations.

Metric selection

Focus on growth, profitability, and reinvestment from commonly disclosed statement lines, with one documented rule set before any numbers ship.

Company classification

Categories and chain roles live in the universe table and follow how each issuer describes its business in public materials.

Limitations

Work will draw on public financial data, company filings, and disclosures. Fiscal calendars, restatements, and segment definitions differ by issuer, so comparisons need explicit reconciliation and may stay approximate. AI exposure classification is qualitative from public business descriptions and must not be read as a precise quantitative score.
