What happened
SpaceX's proposed $40 billion chip-collateralized financing for Nvidia AI chips, reported overnight by the Financial Times, has restarted concerns over the pace of its debt-funded expansion, which as we discussed last night, , is starting to flash a dangerous shade of red: despite raising a record $86 billion in its June IPO, Elon Musk's rocket and AI company's growing financing needs are weighing on sentiment, with its 2056 bonds sliding and five-year credit default swaps surging .
