AI's $3 Trillion Buildout Spurs Debt Boom
Bloomberg Technology· 2026-02-02 18:40
How much are they leaning on public bond markets or indeed the rest of the debt system. So the best way to think about this is they are tapping all done markets. So we have obviously the typical on balance sheet corporate borrowing, which you see like with the Oracle deal today.That can be an investment grade bond, a high yield bond or a leveraged loan or even a private credit direct loan. But there's a lot of off balance sheet borrowing happening as well. I know that sounds a little bit scary when you firs ...

SpaceX Said to Consider Merger With Tesla or xAI
Bloomberg Technology· 2026-01-30 19:53
What we know. Two distinct proposed ideas scenarios, transactions. My understanding from from sources is that Space X investors are particularly pushing this idea of a combination with Tesla.Either way, highly unusual because we thought that Space X was on track for an IPO mid-year. What do we need to know. Well, they still may IPO this year.It's you know, this seems to be a lot of ideas kicking around at the corporate table. It's certainly faster to do a combination between an existing public company than ...

Apple has had the best tasting chain in the world for four years. They ...

Sources tell us that SpaceX and Tesla have considered some sort of merger between those two. And you see Tesla push higher in the after hours after we broke that story. They've also looked at a merger or combination between SpaceX X and x x.I my understanding is that there is a group of investors that are pushing very much on the Tesla idea, but nothing is final know.
