Why Corporate America Is Starting to Ration AI

AI spending is still driving markets higher, but companies are beginning to confront a new problem: the technology may be getting too expensive to use without limits. Chuck Zodda and Mike Armstrong break down the latest movement toward a potential U.S. and Iran deal, what reopening the Strait of Hormuz could mean for oil and gas prices, and why markets are still waiting for confirmation before fully reacting. They also discuss Anthropic overtaking OpenAI as the world’s most valuable AI startup, why rising AI costs could eventually challenge the entire investment boom, and how companies may be forced to ration usage if the promised savings do not materialize. The show also looks at Americans’ unusual confidence in their own finances despite broader economic pessimism, the upcoming SpaceX IPO, Blue Origin’s rocket setback, and why Madison Square Garden Sports has surged as investors place a higher value on scarce sports franchises.
