Chinese investment crashed yet again in November, the second straight month of bigtime declines. Only this time FAI was joined by consumer spending.

IBM’s CEO said there is “no way” that the massive spending on AI and data centers will ever pay off. For the first time in this bubble cycle people are finally wondering if maybe he is right. It couldn’t have come at a more critical time in light of Oracle’s shocking results. And then Broadcom failed to live up to the hype.
