Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Nvidia's decision to potentially invest far less than $100 billion into OpenAI raises big questions for Oracle, like whether OpenAI can make good on its five-year, $300 billion contract with Oracle. Oracle reported $523 billion of remaining performance obligations in November, which represents contracted sales not yet recognized as revenue. It plans to issue as much as $20 billion of common stock this year as part of a broader plan to raise up to $50 billion through equity and debt financing to expand its cloud-infrastructure business. OpenAI has an estimated $1.4 trillion in commitments in total.
