If you define a speculative bubble as any phenomenon where the worth of an asset rises unsustainably beyond a definable fundamental value, then bubbles are pretty much everywhere you look, Businessweek Editor Brad Stone writes in the January issue of the magazine. The question of whether we're in an artificial intelligence bubble might be the most pressing one in business right now. Tech companies are on pace to spend just shy of $1.6 trillion annually on data centers by 2030, according to data analyst Omdia, while AI's prospects as a profit maker remain entirely hypothetical. With Silicon Valley in the midst of another epic boom, Oracle Corp. and its co-founder Larry Ellison have maneuvered right to the center of it. For the cover story, Brody Ford and Drake Bennett tell the tale of Oracle's bet on AI—no tech giant has gone all-in in quite the way it has. What happens to its $300 billion bet if the bubble bursts? What else is inflating in the year ahead? Memecoins? Democrats' prospects? Instagram-worthy cookies? Read our sensible guide to The Year Ahead and then make your predictions for 2026. |
