On May 8, Federal Reserve Governor Milan stated on Friday that he hopes current Fed Chair Powell will only briefly remain as a governor after stepping down from the chairmanship. Milan remarked, "I think it is important to ensure that this is just a transitional phase, rather than having some ulterior motive behind Powell's continued role as a governor." Following last week's meeting, Powell indicated that he would continue to serve as a Federal Reserve governor for a period after his chairmanship ends, with his term as governor lasting until 2028. He expressed a desire to see if the Trump administration's legal attacks on the Fed would cease. 

While Powell's continued presence on the Fed Board could provide a counterbalance to support the status quo amid the Walsh plan for Fed reform, Powell stated last week, "I do not want to be a high-profile dissenter or anything like that." Milan emphasized, "It is important to ensure that this is a transitional phase and to avoid creating divisions of loyalty within the Fed," and to prevent "uncertainty about who is in charge." He added, "This is also why I believe that while Powell's continued presence may help with the transition, we still need to ensure that this is just a transitional period." (Jinshi)

On May 8, Bloomberg reported that a small pharmaceutical company, which was even at risk of being delisted from the Nasdaq stock exchange, quickly transformed into an AI company within just two months after celebrating a new patent for cancer treatment.

Following the name change, its stock price more than doubled in late September.

According to monitoring by Dongcha Beating, the massive $725 billion investment in AI infrastructure is rapidly depleting the cash flow of Silicon Valley's four giants (Amazon, Alphabet, Microsoft, Meta). Wall Street predicts that the combined free cash flow of these four companies will drop to about $4 billion in the third quarter of this year, significantly lower than the pandemic-era quarterly average of $45 billion; the annual free cash flow is expected to hit a new low since 2014. In response to the enormous infrastructure consumption, these once 'cash-rich' tech giants are starting to rely on bond issuance, cutting back on buybacks, and off-balance-sheet financing: - Alphabet and Meta halt buybacks and issue bonds: Alphabet paused its stock buyback program for the first time since 2015 in the first quarter of this year and has cumulatively issued $48 billion in new bonds; Meta has issued $55 billion in debt over the past six months and has paused buybacks (the longest pause since 2017), as it lacks cloud business support and can only free up funds through layoffs. - Microsoft and Amazon pile on heavy assets: The value of servers and other equipment on Microsoft's balance sheet has tripled since mid-2022 to $191 billion, and supply chain price increases have added an extra $25 billion to its capital expenditures this year. Amazon is expected to burn through $10 billion in cash this year and plans to invest $200 billion by 2026. - Off-balance-sheet financing hides true expenses: Companies like Meta have started using special purpose vehicles (SPVs) to move billions of dollars in data center projects off their balance sheets to attract external funding. Oracle, which has secured a $300 billion contract with OpenAI, is also using off-balance-sheet financing and is not expected to return to positive cash flow until fiscal year 2030. This infrastructure frenzy is forcing tech giants to shift from light-asset 'cash cows' to heavy-asset traditional cyclical industries. However, faced with competitive pressure, no one dares to hit the brakes first in this 'prisoner's dilemma.'
