According to sources familiar with the matter, the agreement was backed by a commitment from Nvidia, aimed at helping OpenAI raise debt financing while minimizing Nvidias risk. Nvidia has agreed to guarantee a portion of the value of the completed data center, starting with the first phase (approximately 5 gigawatts of power). In return, Nvidia will become the exclusive chip supplier for the first half of the Ohio project and will hold an equity stake in SB Energy. Nvidia has the option to extend the guarantee to the entire campus later. Sources indicated that Nvidias support aims to make project financing easier and cheaper, and even if OpenAI ceases to be a tenant, Nvidias guarantee will enhance lenders confidence in the data centers value. By guaranteeing the asset value of the data center rather than OpenAIs ongoing rental payments, this commitment structure significantly limits Nvidias risk exposure.Groq has raised $350 million at a valuation of $3.5 billion.

USD/CHF Consolidates Around 0.9040 As Attention Shifts To US Inflation

The USD/CHF pair continues to trade lacklusterly above the crucial support level of 0.9036 in the early Tokyo session. Investors are shifting their focus to Wednesday's release of United States Consumer Price Index (CPI) data, making it difficult for the Swiss Franc to gain traction.

 

As tensions between China and Taiwan escalate, S&P500 futures have pared some of their gains. The market's anxiety has been alleviated by the increasing intensity of Chinese military exercises around Taiwan Island. In addition, concerns of a recession are likely to cause volatility in US equities.

 

Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, stated in an interview with CNN that the recent banking turmoil caused by the dissolution of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and Signature Bank has increased the likelihood of a recession in the United States.  Despite the robustness and security of the banking system, the recent turmoil in the financial system is "another weight on the scale" toward recession, he added.

 

The US Dollar Index (DXY) is protecting the 102.00 support level ahead of US Consumer Price Index (CPI) data. According to the consensus, headline inflation will fall from 6.0% to 5.2%. In addition, the headline monthly CPI would decelerate to 0.3% from 0.4% previously reported. As a consequence of oil prices remaining low in March, inflationary pressures are anticipated to become evident.

 

In contrast, the core CPI, which excludes crude and food prices, is anticipated to increase to 5.6% from 5.5%. The tenacity of inflationary pressures is maintained by the resiliency of demand for essential products, as a result of a higher labor cost index. A similar event could compel the Federal Reserve (Fed) to raise rates again at its May monetary policy meeting.

 

Regarding the Swiss Franc, Swiss markets are suspended on Easter Monday. This week, the Producer Price Index (PPI) data will have an impact on the Swiss Franc.
