Gurley states Mag Seven companies formerly generated approximately $3.4 trillion in cash flow before CapEx shift.
“I will tell you, I have a couple different answers to this, which I think are quite interesting. First of all, the Mag seven formerly were creating, I don't know, $3,400,000,000,000 in cash flow.”
Gurley says he wouldn't have believed Mag Seven would turn $50-100B annual free cash flow to zero via CapEx.
“If you told me five years ago that these, mag seven would become worth $3,000,000,000,000 and then turn around and take their free cash flow from 50 to a 100,000,000,000 a year down near zero because they were gonna spend it all on CapEx, I'd have been like, no way. Like, I wouldn't have believed it.”
