Oracle stock slips after UBS says junk-rating fears look overdone as AI debt grows

New York, January 7, 2026, 17:38 EST — After-hours Oracle (ORCL.N) shares edged lower in after-hours trading on Wednesday as investors weighed a UBS view that the software maker is unlikely to be cut to junk credit status despite a big debt load tied to its AI data-center buildout.
