Chinese AI company Zhipu AI saw its shares drop nearly 23% on February 23, erasing over HK$70 billion (US$9 billion) in market value amid concerns over its computing resources.

The drop followed the company’s public appeal for global partnerships with inference-compute providers, as user complaints about response delays and rate limits persisted despite recent investor interest.

Zhipu is known as Z.ai internationally.

NVDA stock is back to flat, erasing all of its post earnings gains, after what some attribute as a lackluster conference call. Specifically, according to Bloomberg, the company "hasn’t offered many details on the outlook provided that Blackwell and Rubin revenue would exceed $500 billion".

Takeaways by Bloomberg AI​

A 20% slide in Baidu Inc.’s shares over the past month serves as a crucial reminder for companies in China’s rapidly intensifying artificial intelligence race: investors are demanding tangible results.

The search engine specialist kicks off December-quarter earnings for China’s Big Tech on Thursday, amid growing concern that its AI investments are not translating into a meaningful growth driver quickly enough. Despite strength in the cloud business, analysts predict both revenue and profit to fall year on year, hurt by continued weakness in the core advertising business that’s closely tied to the broader economy.

LONDON - Blue Owl Capital’s co-chief executive reeled off all the times he had seen this type of fear before: Covid-19, Silicon Valley Bank’s collapse, Liberation Day.

Mr Marc Lipschultz was addressing analysts on the 11th straight day of losses for the firm’s shares, the worst streak since Blue Owl went public almost five years ago.

Just weeks earlier, investors yanked more than 15 per cent of net assets from one of the money manager’s tech-focused funds.

Takeaways by Bloomberg AI​

The risk of AI disruption upending private credit poses little threat to the wider financial system or the global economy, according to Brookfield Corp.’s Chief Executive Officer Bruce Flatt.

While markets have been roiled by concerns about private credit exposure to software businesses that could be vulnerable to new technology, fear that could spread to a wider financial crisis are overblown, Flatt said in a Bloomberg Television interview Wednesday.

LONDON, Dec 12 : As AI fever has propelled global stocks to record highs, the data centres needed to power the technology are increasingly being financed with debt, adding to concerns about the risks.

A UBS report last month said AI data centre and project financing deals surged to $125 billion so far this year, from $15 billion in the same period in 2024, with more supply from the sector expected to be pivotal for credit markets in 2026.

"Public and private credit seems to have become a major source of funding for AI investments, and its rapid growth raised some concerns," said Anton Dombrovskiy, fixed income portfolio specialist at T. Rowe Price.

"Although up until now an increase in supply has been met with relatively healthy demand, this is the area to watch especially taking into account large financing needs estimates," Dombrovskiy added.



The Bank of England warned last week that the growing role of debt in the AI infrastructure boom could heighten potential financial stability risks if valuations correct.

Christopher Kramer, portfolio manager and senior trader on the investment grade credit team at Neuberger told Reuters that the market has seen a structural shift as the largest technology companies finance their AI infrastructure ambitions.

"They really haven't been focal points in our market from a debt issuance standpoint, and that's obviously shifting really dramatically ... anytime you have that, it creates a lot of opportunity," he said on November 28.

"We're excited just from the standpoint that the market's changing. You're going to have a different dynamic, it creates an opportunity to take risks and create value for our investors," Kramer added.

JPMorgan Chase (JPM) CEO Jamie Dimon said Monday that the financial world looks a lot like the heyday in the years ahead of the global financial crisis.

“Unfortunately, we did see this in '05, '06, '07, almost the same thing," Dimon said at the firm's annual investor day in New York on Monday. "The rising tide lifting all boats, everyone was making a lot of money, people leveraging to the hilt. The sky was the limit.”

FS KKR Private Credit Fund Cuts Dividend Amid Rise in Bad Loans​

A private credit fund jointly managed by Future Standard and KKR & Co. cut its dividend to 48 cents a share from 70 cents after earnings fell amid declining interest rates and losses tied to struggling investments.

FS KKR Capital Corp., a business development company that makes direct loans, said about 3.4% of the portfolio, or roughly $440 million, was on non-accrual at year-end, meaning the fund no longer expects to collect interest on those investments, up from 2.9% three months earlier.
