            Oracle is reportedly planning to raise $15 billion through corporate bond sales, as reported by Bloomberg. The bond sale may consist of up to seven parts, including a rare 40-year bond. This initiative comes shortly after Oracle secured a historic $300 billion AI infrastructure deal with OpenAI, raising questions about funding. Furthermore, Oracle is in discussions with Meta for a potential $20 billion compute deal. In a significant leadership change, Safra Catz will step down as CEO after 11 years, transitioning to the role of executive vice chair, with Clay Magouyrk and Mike Sicilia taking over as co-CEOs.
