Bloomberg described the $40 billion off‑balance‑sheet debt as snarled by AI turmoil, while MarketWatch warned that financing SpaceX’s AI projects constitutes a major risk. Seeking Alpha reported that the debt sale is approaching completion and that borrowing costs are expected to rise.
Yahoo Finance noted that AI cloud stocks such as Nebius and CoreWeave rose 3% and that Oracle edged higher after Musk labeled overcapacity talk ‘ridiculous.’ Semafor’s exclusive story connected the increasing price of the deal to the spread of AI fears across investors. The reports diverge in tone: Seoul Economic Daily emphasizes a profit surge, whereas Bloomberg, MarketWatch and Seeking Alpha focus on financial risk and higher costs.
Yahoo Finance’s market rally contrasts with those risk warnings. No outlet has provided a definitive resolution, but all indicate the debt package is near finalisation, with investors facing higher borrowing expenses linked to AI‑related concerns.
