Hyperscaler capital expenditure by fiscal year

How it's computed: Cash paid for property & equipment from each company's 10-K (XBRL tag PaymentsToAcquirePropertyPlantAndEquipment; Amazon falls back to PaymentsToAcquireProductiveAssets where needed). Fiscal years differ: Microsoft ends June, Oracle ends May. Excludes finance leases, so understates total spend for Microsoft/Amazon. Latest year may be missing for firms that have not yet filed. Values exactly as published by the source (rounded).
