Oracle's Financial Concerns - Concerns regarding AI investments have escalated, particularly with Oracle's significant stock drop, which highlights the high valuations of tech stocks and the risks associated with massive debt financing and rapidly increasing AI capital expenditures. Oracle's stock rebounded slightly, closing up 2.44%, but it has cumulatively dropped 6.85% for the week [5][6]. - Oracle's stock has fallen nearly 30% in the past month, erasing over $250 billion in market value since its partnership announcement with OpenAI. Barclays downgraded Oracle's debt rating to "underweight," warning that its credit rating could be downgraded to BBB-, just one step above junk status. The report also indicated that Oracle's interest-bearing debt has doubled over the past decade to $111.6 billion, with a debt-to-equity ratio of 500%, significantly higher than Amazon's 50% and Microsoft's 30% [5][6]. Federal Reserve Interest Rate Outlook - Expectations for a rate cut by the Federal Reserve in December have decreased significantly, with the probability of a 25 basis point cut dropping from 67% to below 50%. Kansas City Fed President Jeff Schmieding expressed concerns that further rate cuts could entrench high inflation rather than support the labor market [8]. Gold and Oil Market Movements - International gold prices fell over 2%, with COMEX gold futures down 2.62% at $4084.4 per ounce, while silver futures dropped 5.21% at $50.4 per ounce. The decline in gold prices is attributed to the market's cooling expectations for a Fed rate cut, as rising interest rates diminish the appeal of non-yielding assets like gold [10]. - Crude oil prices saw an increase, with the main contract for U.S. oil rising 2.15% to $59.95 per barrel, and Brent crude rising 1.97% to $64.25 per barrel, influenced by geopolitical tensions such as attacks on oil ports and the seizure of a tanker by Iran [11].
