Oracle (ORCL.N) shares fell nearly 12% in pre-market trading on Thursday due to earnings showing revenue below expectations, and the company announced an additional $15 billion data center expenditure to meet AI demand. Last quarter's revenue was $16.1 billion, a 14% year-over-year increase but below analyst expectations. The company has raised its capital expenditure forecast for this fiscal year by 40% to $50 billion, with long-term debt rising to $99.9 billion. Investors are concerned about Oracle's large-scale borrowing and spending to meet the needs of AI companies such as OpenAI, questioning its short-term return prospects. Morgan Stanley expects Oracle's net debt to reach about $290 billion by 2028.

HSBC Securities predicts the Federal Reserve will maintain interest rates stable at the 3.5%-3.75% range set on Wednesday for the next two years. Previously, Federal Reserve policymakers lowered rates by 25 basis points with a split vote. The institution's U.S. economist Ryan Wang pointed out in a report on December 10 that Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell was "open to the question of whether and when to further cut rates at next year's FOMC press conference." "We believe the FOMC will keep the federal funds rate target range unchanged at 3.50%-3.75% throughout 2026 and 2027, but as the economy evolves, as in the past, it is always necessary to pay close attention to the significant two-way risks facing this outlook." -
