Japanese Prime Minister Takaichi said exchange rates move on multiple factors, making it difficult to isolate the impact of any single factor.

The Wall Street Journal reports NVIDIA is negotiating to provide about $250 billion in financial guarantees to support a large OpenAI data‑centre project. The guarantees would help OpenAI lease a 10 GW data‑centre development in southern Ohio being built by SoftBank. Total project costs, including chips deployed in the centres, could exceed $500 billion, making it the largest announced data‑centre project to date. Power for the project is controlled by the U.S. government and Japan will separately fund power under a recent trade agreement; U.S. Commerce Secretary Lutnick has been involved in power allocation decisions. Under the proposed arrangement NVIDIA would back a suite of financing instruments to bolster lenders’ confidence; terms are not final and the deal could still fall apart. The $250 billion guarantee would cover debt for leasing and construction but would exclude NVIDIA chips.
