What stands out
Bloomberg’s morning briefing captured a clear split on AI: Ken Griffin warned of a bubble while Larry Fink argued for continued investment, and multiple guests debated whether companies are overbuilding compute and data-center capacity. The show also aired Elon Musk’s speculative $3.5 trillion SpaceX‑Tesla tie‑up talk, United’s warning on rising fuel costs, and several segments on Netflix’s slowing growth and potential strategic pivots. Those competing views, bubble versus build, cost pressure versus pricing power, dominated the conversation.
