China may permit Alibaba and ByteDance to purchase new Nvidia chips, according to a report by The Information relayed by Investing.com and Yahoo Finance. The potential approval would mark a shift for two of China's largest tech companies, which have faced restrictions on accessing advanced US-made semiconductors amid ongoing US-China trade tensions over chip exports.

Companies are issuing corporate bonds at a record pace, and Yahoo Finance's Chart of the Day links the surge to the AI gold rush. Tech firms and data-center builders are raising huge sums to fund chips, power and infrastructure, pushing debt issuance to unprecedented levels and drawing attention from investors watching credit markets.
