Global #Trends by BBVA: AI and Semiconductors; Boom, Bubble or Supercycle?

The spotlight on artificial intelligence and semiconductors has never been brighter. But does this dazzling surge signal mere hype, or a structural shift reshaping the global economy?


Hyperscalers are set to deploy USD 500 billion into AI through 2027, fueling a supercycle that especially benefits the sector’s key players: the “Brains” (chip designers), the “Builders” (manufacturers), and the indispensable “Enablers” powering the global supply chain.

Watch the full video to discover why we believe the AI–semiconductor supercycle is only at its early stages, and how to position strategically heading into 2026.
