Alf and Brent focus on the sharp sell-off in AI related stocks, and investigate whether it is likely to have repercussions for rates and currencies or it is rather technical in nature.

Alf and Brent discuss how developments in credit markets are rattling investors from France to the state of the AI credit cycle. The duo covers the implications for equities, currencies and fixed income.
