New York Times finance reporter Maureen Farrell tells Bloomberg This Weekend that Wall Street is growing more skeptical of the AI data center boom as rising interest rates, local opposition and permitting delays add uncertainty and costs to projects. Speaking with hosts David Gura and Christina Ruffini, Farrell says trillions of dollars in financing may require tapping public markets, but investor resistance is making planned data center IPOs harder and potentially more expensive to complete.

Glass House Analysis
Inflation is the silent tax that erodes purchasing power, hitting hardest those who can least afford it. When grocery bills rise faster than wages, families face impossible choices between food, medicine, and rent. Unlike market volatility that mainly affects investors, inflation touches everyone who buys groceries, fills a gas tank, or pays rent.
The implications extend beyond the immediate news cycle. Every economic development creates ripples that affect employment, prices, and opportunities in ways that may not be immediately visible but are deeply felt. By tracking these connections, we can better understand how the economy truly works—not as an abstract machine, but as a human system shaped by and shaping the lives of millions.
