Permission Slip Panic

The real news

The story, straight

A stock is a small ownership share in a company. Its price reflects what buyers expect that company to earn, not just what it earns today.

Artificial intelligence runs on computers housed in data centres. Expanding that computing capacity means constructing buildings, supplying electricity and getting permission.

The cloud has a landlord. And paperwork.
