Jitters build over AI debt as tech giants ramp up borrowing for capex

Jitters build over AI debt as tech giants ramp up borrowing for capex
Concerns are mounting that major technology companies are accumulating significant debt to finance aggressive AI-related capital expenditure, as analysts caution that spending growth may outstrip near-term profitability. 
Firms such as Nvidia are increasingly turning to bond markets to support large-scale generative AI infrastructure, raising fears of stretched balance sheets. With global AI capex projected to accelerate, market participants are questioning whether the rapid expansion could prove unsustainable if revenue monetisation fails to scale in tandem.

Wall Street rallies on rate-cut hopes but ends week lower

Wall Street rallies on rate-cut hopes but ends week lower
U.S. stocks surged after renewed expectations that the Federal Reserve could cut interest rates in December, following dovish remarks from New York Fed President John Williams. All three major indexes posted strong gains on Friday, briefly lifting investor sentiment. 
However, the relief rally was not enough to offset earlier declines, and markets still closed the week in negative territory amid concerns over stretched tech valuations and weakening momentum in AI-linked stocks.

Africa panel proposes G20-backed debt refinancing fund for low-income countries

Africa panel proposes G20-backed debt refinancing fund for low-income countries
An expert panel in Johannesburg has proposed a new G20-led initiative to refinance — rather than reschedule — debt for the world’s poorest nations. The plan suggests using IMF Special Drawing Rights (SDRs) and gold to capitalise a refinancing facility, easing pressure on countries facing unsustainable repayment obligations. Supporters argue the mechanism would enhance financial resilience across the Global South, providing vulnerable economies with fiscal breathing space while reducing the risk of disorderly defaults.

Banking Regulator Calls for Rethink on Crypto Capital Rules

Banking Regulator Calls for Rethink on Crypto Capital Rules
Erik Thedéen, chair of the Basel Committee, has urged global regulators to revisit rules that force banks to hold extreme amounts of capital against crypto. The rules mandate a hefty 1,250% risk weighting for volatile assets like bitcoin and stablecoins.
Thedéen argues the framework is overly punitive and detached from current crypto realities, especially as stablecoin usage surges globally and institutional adoption grows.

Nvidia Value Swings $1 Trillion in Just Two Days Amid AI Fervour

Nvidia Value Swings $1 Trillion in Just Two Days Amid AI Fervour
Nvidia’s market cap swung a jaw-dropping $1 trillion in just 54 hours, after its blowout earnings were followed by a rapid profit-taking sell-off. The chipmaker initially gained around $450 billion as AI demand fueled investor optimism, but then slumped, shedding $600 billion as sentiment cooled. 
The gyrations have reignited concerns of an AI valuation bubble, even as Nvidia’s fundamentals remain strong.

Wall Street IPO Activity Slumps to November Lows

Wall Street IPO Activity Slumps to November Lows
The US IPO market is cooling dramatically, with November on track to be its slowest month in 2025. Investor caution and a backlog of SEC registration statements are delaying many big-tech listings, pushing their debut into 2026. 
This slowdown reflects rising risk aversion and regulatory frictions, dampening momentum for companies that had hoped to tap public markets before year-end.

India’s Alternative Investments Soar to ₹23 Lakh Crore as PMS & AIFs Expand

India’s Alternative Investments Soar to ₹23 Lakh Crore as PMS & AIFs Expand
India’s alternate‐investment sector has surpassed ₹23.43 lakh crore (≈US$283 billion) in combined assets under management of Portfolio Management Services (PMS) and Alternative Investment Funds (AIFs). Over the past decade PMS assets have grown seven-fold, while AIF commitments have risen nearly 50 % per annum on average. Institutional investors and high-net-worth individuals are increasingly favouring high-conviction strategies amid market uncertainty. 
Analysts say this shift signals that professionalised wealth-management is becoming mainstream in India’s evolving financial ecosystem.

Indian Equities Slip as Weak Global Cues and Jobs Data Spook Markets

Indian Equities Slip as Weak Global Cues and Jobs Data Spook Markets
Indian equity markets snapped a two-day rally as global risk aversion intensified, sending the Nifty below the 26,100 mark. Persistent uncertainty around U.S. jobs data has unsettled investors, reigniting rate-cut doubts. 
Sectoral weakness was broad based: metals, public-sector banks, and realty underperformed sharply, while only consumer-staples showed relative resilience. The pullback highlights how fragile sentiment remains amid macro crosscurrents and unclear policy direction.

India’s Export Exposure Diversifies as US Share Falls to 15 % Amid Tariffs
Merchandise exports from India in the first half of FY26 reached US$220 billion, showing a 2.9 % increase year-on-year. Meanwhile the share of exports to the United States has dropped to 15 % as India pivots to alternative markets amid rising US tariffs.

Bitcoin Plunges Under 82000 As Crypto Market Faces Risk Off

Bitcoin Plunges Under 82000 As Crypto Market Faces Risk Off
Bitcoin has tumbled to around US$81,668, its lowest in months, amid a broad sell-off in the crypto market. The drop is being driven by a retreat from speculative and high-beta assets, as investors grow wary of stretched technology valuations and reduced expectations of imminent rate cuts. 
Crypto markets have shed over US$1.2 trillion in value in recent weeks. Analysts warn that if key support breaks, further downside could follow amid weakening investor sentiment.

US Stocks Rally on Fed Pause Hopes; Tech Still Under Pressure
US major indices surged as markets increasingly priced in a possible rate cut by the Federal Reserve, with the S&P 500 and Dow finishing up close to 1%. However, tech-heavy Nasdaq remains under pressure amid valuation concerns and renewed talk of an AI bubble. 
The move signals investor pivot toward macro relief while questions persist about earnings momentum in growth sectors. Rising hopes for easing monetary policy come against a backdrop of residual risk from weak global growth and stretched valuations.

US IPO Market Slows as SEC Backlog and Tech Slump Bite
The US initial public offering market has cooled sharply as regulatory delays at the Securities and Exchange Commission and a tech-sector pull-back weigh on new listings. Firms that launched recently are seeing muted gains, and many listings originally slated for late-2025 are now being deferred into 2026 due to holiday season inertia and elevated valuation concerns. 
 According to market participants, hundreds of registration statements remain unresolved, eroding investor sentiment and spotlighting the timing risk for companies hoping to tap public markets this year.

Deeptech To Drive Up To One Third Of VC Funding In India Says Accel

Deeptech To Drive Up To One Third Of VC Funding In India Says Accel
Accel’s Prashanth Prakash projects that deeptech startups - including AI, robotics, quantum tech, and space - could receive as much as one-third of India’s overall venture capital funding in the near future. 
The rise is due to stronger conviction among investors about innovation driven by hard-tech, and a growing ecosystem of research-led companies. This shift may alter how capital is allocated in Indian VC, pushing it beyond consumer and fintech models.

While markets had priced in a third Fed cut for 2025, this ambiguous labour report is forcing investors to reassess their expectations and recalibrate positions ahead of the December policy meeting.

In addition, SEBI aims to replace the “abridged prospectus” with a streamlined summary of key disclosures — making IPOs more transparent and investor-friendly.

India’s AI Startup Ecosystem Accelerates as Funding Flows Jump

India’s AI Startup Ecosystem Accelerates as Funding Flows Jump
India’s generative-AI startup ecosystem is showing strong momentum in 2025, with AI ventures capturing more than half of all venture-capital funding in the country, according to recent reports. 
Efficiency-driven models, lower compute costs and government support (via the IndiaAI Mission) are aiding acceleration. While total deal volume has dropped globally, Indian AI startups are reaching revenue-proof models faster and attracting bigger cheque sizes. Observers say this marks a structural shift rather than a temporary surge.
