That would be catastrophic for Larry Ellison, who lives on debt backed by his 40% share of Oracle stock. If the share price plunges, his creditors will likely be forced to liquidate much of his holdings, creating a downward spiral. No bailout will save him. www.wheresyoured.at/the-openai-bubble/

OpenAI's collapse could threaten the Paramound/WBD deal too. Ellison will have to raise $20bn+ in cash to complete it, which will require more margin loans on his Oracle stock. If Oracle's stock collapses below $70, his empire rapidly deteriorates. www.wheresyoured.at/the-openai-bubble/
