Oracle's AI Push: Stock Plummets Below $200 Amid Investor Caution
Oracle's stock price has dropped below $200 for the first time since September.
This happened even though Oracle is investing a lot in artificial intelligence (AI).
Some people think there might be a bubble in AI investments, and they're being careful about investing in tech companies that focus on AI, like Oracle and Nvidia.
Oracle's partnership with OpenAI has made investors worry, and now Oracle owes a lot of money to build data centers for OpenAI.
This has caused Oracle's market value to decrease by $360 billion since they announced this partnership.
