Summary

After a positive August for stocks, Carl Quintanilla, Jim Cramer and David Faber explored the challenges facing the stock market in September, including moves in Treasurys: The 10-year note yield hit highs not seen since January 2025. According to David's sources, Anthropic agreed to a $35 billion computing deal with Nvidia-backed cloud provider Lambda. T…

Cramer, Faber, and Quintanilla tackle rising bond yields, surging oil prices, Nvidia's $35B Anthropic deal, Apple's new CEO John Ternus, and Elon Musk's bold AI productivity predictions at the G20.

Key takeaways

  • Nvidia is leveraging its balance sheet as a service—financing compute infrastructure through deals like the $35B Anthropic-Lambda-Hut8 arrangement—to accelerate AI adoption beyond hyperscalers.
  • Rising bond yields (10-year near 4.8%), surging oil prices (Brent above $92), and record diesel prices are converging to create a historically weak September market backdrop.
  • AI productivity gains are accelerating faster than labor markets can adapt, with Elon Musk projecting AI will be 'Stockfish-level' dominant in software engineering within 12–18 months, adding $20–30T to the global economy.

Why this matters

For B2B leaders, the convergence of Nvidia's balance-sheet-as-a-service model, soaring energy and capital costs, and near-term AI capability inflection points is fundamentally reshaping infrastructure investment decisions, competitive moats, and workforce strategy across every sector.
