据外媒报道,尽管 AI 主题对冲基金 Situational Awareness 上月大幅处置公开市场持仓,但仍在继续押注 AI 芯片方向。该基金本周向芯片初创公司 Source Foundry 投资 4 亿美元,使其对这家公司的累计投资升至 5 亿美元。

累计投资增至5亿美元

Source Foundry 由斯坦福研究人员创立,目标是提升芯片制造效率并压低生产成本。报道援引《华尔街日报》称,这笔最新投资发生在本周,是 Situational Awareness 对该公司的再次加码。

从已披露信息看,这笔交易延续了市场对 AI 芯片与算力基础设施的关注。与模型公司相比,围绕芯片设计、制造和供应链效率的项目,仍在吸引大额资金进入。

基金近期经历大幅回撤

Situational Awareness 由前 OpenAI 研究员 Leopold Aschenbrenner 于 2024 年创立。报道提到,他创办这只基金时年纪尚轻,此前并无交易经验。基金早期回报一度较强,但近几个月随着 AI 基础设施股票回落,业绩承受较大压力。

7 月底,Situational Awareness 将其大部分公开市场投资组合出售给 Ken Griffin 旗下 Citadel。报道同时称,该基金管理资产规模已从 200 亿美元降至 100 亿美元。

  • 本周新投金额:4 亿美元
  • 对 Source Foundry 累计投资:5 亿美元
  • 管理资产规模据报从 200 亿降至 100 亿美元

资金仍在流向芯片制造环节

这笔投资显示,即便部分 AI 主题资金在二级市场遭遇波动,一级市场对芯片制造相关项目的兴趣并未明显减弱。尤其是在训练算力需求持续扩张的背景下,提升制造速度和降低成本,仍是芯片产业链中的重要方向。

对 Source Foundry 而言,新资金有助于推进其制造技术与产能布局。对 Situational Awareness 而言,这也表明其在公开市场收缩后,仍选择继续加码更长期的 AI 基础设施项目。
