For most of the past two years, investors concentrated almost exclusively on the companies designing AI chips or building the large language models consuming them. Now, according to Wells Fargo equity strategist Ohsung Kwon, the investment opportunity is beginning to spread much further through the economy. In a note reported by Bloomberg this week, Kwon argued that spending on artificial intelligence infrastructure is now “trickling down to the broader economy,” making capital-goods companies the “biggest AI-adjacent” beneficiaries of the current investment cycle. The timing of that call could hardly have been better. Just hours later, AMD reported one of the…
The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has scrapped the seven-day waiting period that sat between the publication of an approved IPO prospectus and the release of connected research, a rule that has added at least a week to every major UK listing since 2018. The change took effect on publication of the FCA’s policy statement, PS26/16, on 5 August. The stated goal is competitiveness. UK IPO activity has fallen sharply in recent years as companies chose New York and other venues. London raised just £2.1 billion from IPOs in 2025, against £16.8 billion at its 2021 peak, a collapse that has left…

Mastercard’s acquisition of stablecoin infrastructure provider BVNK has also become a landmark exit for European venture capital firm Concentric, whose investment in the company dates back to a time when stablecoins were still viewed largely as a cryptocurrency experiment rather than a foundation for global payments. Concentric announced that it first backed BVNK’s founders in 2018 and led the company’s first two funding rounds, investing at a €4 million valuation before increasing its position three years later at an €80 million valuation. The firm said it participated in every subsequent financing round and retained its entire shareholding through to Mastercard’s…

The Federal Reserve left its policy rate unchanged last week, but financial conditions tightened anyway. The 30-year Treasury yield finished July at 5.27%, its highest level in 19 years, while the 10-year reached 4.75%, its highest since January 2025. Yields eased on Monday as oil prices fell, taking the 30-year back toward 5.23% and the 10-year to approximately 4.69%, but that retreat did not reverse the broader repricing. The long end is telling investors that the inflation problem may outlast the current policy setting. At the same time, futures traders have moved from debating rate cuts to assigning roughly 63%…

CoreWeave spent July absorbing two different catastrophes, and the market has not yet separated them. The first was fundamental: on July 17, Meta announced Meta Compute — the biggest AI capex spender turning compute vendor — and struck directly at the GPU-cloud business model. The second was mechanical: CoreWeave was a $697 million position in Leopold Aschenbrenner’s 4x-levered Situational Awareness fund, whose margin-call liquidation flushed CRWV to $60.82 on July 29 before the book moved to Citadel and the stock snapped back to $73.90. One of those events changes CoreWeave’s future; the other only changed its July. Separating them is…
