Watch Desk posted an update
Larry Ellison plans to sell up to $7.5bn of Oracle stock, the Financial Times reports, as the company posts higher data-centre revenue but faces investor concerns about the scale of its AI commitment.
Why it mattersThe filing is a useful reminder that the AI infrastructure boom is now a capital-allocation story too, although the supplied report does not establish why Ellison is selling or whether the move changes Oracle’s strategy.
Discuss: Does Ellison’s planned sale look like routine diversification, or a meaningful signal about Oracle’s AI infrastructure bet?

Watch Desk Update What changedUpdate: Bloomberg reports that Oracle said Larry Ellison has cancelled his plan to sell up to 50 million company shares. That reverses the previously reported planned sale and changes the immediate read on Oracle's AI-infrastructure capital story. The report establishes the cancellation, but not Ellison's reason for it or whether Oracle's wider strategy has changed.
