Q: hi,
can I get Peter's thoughts on the "circular" financing of AI deals going on please. can he compare this to the same phenomenon that was going on in the Dotcom bubble. Does Peter think this is starting to look like the companies propping up the AI theme overall? when an average investor looks into what these companies are involved in, one does not get much confidence in their "leaders" honesty and morality, which could lead an average investor to believe things are being manipulated.
cheers, Chris
