Bloomberg Intelligence hosted by Paul Sweeney and Scarlet Fu

• Antonio Neri, HPE CEO, discusses the latest company news. Hewlett Packard Enterprise Co. introduced new networking gear for artificial intelligence data centers, building on the products it acquired from Juniper Networks. HPE unveiled networking switches that are specialized for inferencing, or running AI workloads, and said Siemens Energy AG will use a collection of AI technologies it has built with Nvidia Corp.
• Mandeep Singh, Global Tech Research Head at Bloomberg Intelligence, discusses the latest at SpaceX and OpenAI. SpaceX shares declined for the first time since its record initial public offering, snapping a three-day rally that vaulted it past Amazon.com Inc. as the world’s fifth-largest stock. According to Bloomberg Intelligence: OpenAI’s losses of about $34 billion, coupled with the lowering of its token pricing for its latest model, show the company’s focus on expanding beyond consumer and into enterprise use cases, including coding-agent and LLM APIs, where Anthropic and Cursor (bought by SpaceX) have higher market share.
• Michael Dean, Bloomberg Intelligence Head of Global Autos, discusses BMW saying its profit margin could dwindle to as little as 1% this year due to weakening Chinese demand and fallout from the Middle East conflict. The company plans additional cost savings beyond those announced this year, which will weigh on its business during the second half of the year.
• Poonam Goyal, Senior U.S. E-Commerce and Retail Analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence, discusses Bloomberg Intelligence’s deep dive into E-Commerce. According to BI: Artificial intelligence is pushing US e-commerce into its next growth phase, with sales topping $2 trillion next year and nearing $2.6 trillion by 2030, despite pressure from tariffs and inflation. Amazon.com remains dominant, but Walmart, EBay, Wayfair, Temu, Shein, Etsy and Shopify-enabled merchants are widening competition through fulfillment, product data and agent-led shopping.
