AI stocks slide premarket as Oracle lines up $50 billion raise and Nvidia-OpenAI deal doubts linger
Oracle shares fell 2.6% premarket after announcing plans to raise up to $50 billion this year for AI cloud infrastructure, splitting funding between debt and equity. The move follows a bondholder lawsuit and rising credit-default swap costs. Nvidia, Microsoft, Meta, and AMD also traded lower before the open. Nasdaq 100 futures slipped 0.9% amid a broader selloff in gold and silver and news of Kevin Warsh’s Fed nomination.
