AI Stocks Sell Off Post-Election as Investors Reassess Data Center and Spending Outlook Technology shares fell sharply following the election as investors weighed growing political resistance to data center construction, the sustainability of AI capital spending and the prospects for Anthropic's IPO, according to Bloomberg. Speaking on Bloomberg This Weekend, Yorkville Ives & Co. partner Dan Ives and Bloomberg US equities reporter Natalia Kniazhevich told hosts David Gura and Christina Ruffini that the election outcome could slow the pace of the AI buildout and reshape which companies emerge as winners and losers across the sector. Ives maintained that the long-term AI investment cycle remains intact despite the near-term selloff. Key takeaway: Political headwinds against data center expansion are now a pricing factor in the AI trade, meaning founders and investors should expect greater scrutiny of capex-heavy strategies and a more selective market for AI-related public offerings.

The organizer is urging attendees to register in advance, noting that ticket prices will increase at the door. The event is positioned as a venue for founders to form connections with peers, operators, and investors.

AI Economics Face a Margin Squeeze as Token Prices Fall and Compute Costs Rise On Bloomberg's Merryn Talks Money, host Merryn Somerset Webb and Steve Hou, head of research at Silicon Data, examine a growing tension in the economics of artificial intelligence: the price of tokens is declining while the cost of the compute required to produce them is increasing. The two discuss what this mismatch could mean for the valuations of leading model developers such as OpenAI and Anthropic, and whether end demand is strong enough to justify the enormous capital being poured into AI infrastructure. They also consider the longer-term scenario in which individuals and businesses deploy large numbers of AI agents on their behalf, and what that implies for usage and pricing. Key takeaway: If output prices keep falling faster than input costs, AI developers will need either dramatic efficiency gains or a surge in demand to defend the valuations that current infrastructure spending assumes.

Venture-backed tech IPOs reach $90B in 2025 U.S. venture-backed technology companies have raised roughly $90 billion through domestic public offerings so far this year, according to Crunchbase data. That figure already ranks as the second-highest annual total on record, with several months still remaining in the year. Despite the strong aggregate, Crunchbase frames the period as a difficult one for software IPOs specifically, suggesting the proceeds have been concentrated outside that category. Key takeaway: Headline IPO volume masks a divided market, and software founders eyeing a public exit should treat 2025's record-adjacent totals as a signal of selective investor appetite rather than a broadly reopened window.
