Ruud van Nistelrooy has made history by becoming the first manager to defeat a team twice and then go on to manage them in the same season, following his debut as Leicester City's manager. The Dutchman, who was recently let go by Manchester United, is now at the helm of the Foxes, aiming to guide them away from the relegation zone. Van Nistelrooy initially joined as Erik ten Hag's assistant in the summer, but took over temporarily when Ten Hag was dismissed. During his four-match stint, he led the team to victory against Leicester twice - once in the Carabao Cup and once in the Premier League. Despite being moved on by Manchester United following Ruben Amorim's arrival, Van Nistelrooy quickly found a new role at the King Power Stadium, making Premier League history in the process. His first game in charge saw Leicester triumph 3-1 over West Ham on Tuesday night, marking their third win of the Premier League season and the beginning of a new era. Jamie Vardy opened the scoring after a VAR check, with Bilal El Khannouss and Patson Daka adding to the tally in the second half. Niclas Fullkrug managed to score for the visitors, but it was too little, too late. The Dutch legend Ruud van Nistelrooy, who once held a record in the Premier League for scoring in ten consecutive league games, has now joined forces with the man who surpassed his achievement, Jamie Vardy at Leicester. Van Nistelrooy's record was eclipsed by Vardy during the Foxes' fairy-tale 2015/16 season when he found the net in 11 successive matches, reports the Mirror . At his unveiling, Van Nistelrooy humorously addressed the topic, saying with a grin: "It's a problem he broke my record, I said to him we have a big issue to get out of the way! At the time I made a tweet about breaking the record and wishing him well. Nine years later it's weird how these things go, but good stories." He added praise for Vardy's longevity and performance: "He is someone who has had a career for a long time and has been performing all these seasons. He still is and he's a great striker and great to have him in the squad."Mary Church Terrell Club hosts first meetings of the yearCharles Dolan , a titan of the early cable industry who owned Cablevision and launched HBO , passed away at 98.

Notable quotes by Jimmy CarterRachel Reeves refuses FOUR times to repeat her 'no more tax rises' promise - as Chancellor opens door to new wave of hikes By JASON GROVES POLITICAL EDITOR FOR THE DAILY MAIL Published: 22:04 GMT, 3 December 2024 | Updated: 22:10 GMT, 3 December 2024 e-mail 14 shares 265 View comments Rachel Reeves opened the door to a new wave of tax rises yesterday – just a week after ruling them out. During exchanges in the Commons, the Chancellor refused to repeat her claim last week that she would not be ‘coming back for more’ tax. Labour’s Budget in October was the biggest tax-raiser in history, with £40billion of new levies. It was met with a business backlash, with firms warning a £25billion rise in employers’ National Insurance will cost jobs, raise prices and force closures. Ms Reeves tried to defuse the row over her Budget last week by saying she would not require further tax rises before the next election. ‘I’m really clear I’m not coming back with more borrowing or more taxes,’ she told the Confederation of British Industry (CBI). But No 10 has distanced itself from the remarks, and in the Commons yesterday Ms Reeves four times refused to repeat the pledge. During exchanges in the Commons, the Chancellor, pictured, refused to repeat her claim last week that she would not be ‘coming back for more’ tax Shadow Chancellor Mel Stride, pictured, asked her whether Downing Street had ‘changed its mind’, or if she ‘spoke without thinking’ when she told business chiefs she would not repeat her Budget hikes Ms Reeves, pictured, said she had been left to deal with a £22billion ‘black hole’ Reeves hit by slump in productivity The Chancellor faces a potential multi-billion pound black hole as figures showed the productivity crisis is worse than feared amid a surge in migration. The Office for National Statistics revealed output per hour worked – a key productivity measure – fell by 0.9 per cent in the second quarter of this year compared to 2023. That was worse than the reported 0.3 per cent. If the forecast is revised down it will narrow Rachel Reeves’ ‘headroom’ to balance the books and create a black hole worth tens of billions of pounds. In contrast the Office for Budget Responsibility predicts productivity will grow by 1 per cent or more from 2025 to 2029 – and half a per cent lower annual growth in productivity would add £40billion to the borrowing bill. Kallum Pickering, at broker Peel Hunt, suggested the increase in population could result in a rise in the number of taxpayers. Advertisement Shadow Chancellor Mel Stride asked her whether Downing Street had ‘changed its mind’, or if she ‘spoke without thinking’ when she told business chiefs she would not repeat her Budget hikes. Ms Reeves said she had been left to deal with a £22billion ‘black hole’, adding: ‘So we did have to raise taxes to fund our public services, but never again will we have to repeat a Budget like that, because we have now wiped the slate clean and drawn a line under the mess created by the last government.’ Asked again to rule out further tax rises, she added: ‘No chancellor is going to write five years’ worth of Budget in their first five months, but what I can say is that we will never have to deliver a Budget like that again.’ Shadow Treasury minister Richard Fuller said the Chancellor’s apparent backtracking would ‘undermine business confidence’. He added: ‘She told the CBI last week there would be no more borrowing and no more taxes. Days later the business secretary and then the Prime Minister refused to stand by what she said. Now even she cannot repeat her own words.’ But Ms Reeves later suggested she could not close down the possibility of tax rises to deal with a national emergency. Speaking at the Yorkshire Post’s Great Northern Conference in Hull, she told reporters: ‘I can’t write five years’ worth of Budgets in just five months. We don’t know what might happen in the future in terms of shocks to the economy, but I can give businesses the confidence in this Budget that we have wiped the slate clean, we will never have to do a budget like this again.’ She said public services would have to ‘live within’ the spending ‘envelope’ set out at the Budget rather than relying on extra tax rises in the future.

Van Nistelrooy returned to Old Trafford as Erik ten Hag’s assistant in the summer and had a four-game interim spell in charge following his compatriot’s sacking in October. He left the club in the wake of Ruben Amorim’s appointment but was only out of work for two weeks after being appointed Leicester’s new manager on a deal until 2027. The 48-year-old had a glittering playing career with United and was disappointed his return had to end so soon. “The moment I took over the interim job what I said was I’m here to help United and to stay to help United, and I meant it,” he said. “So I was disappointed, yeah, very much so, and it hurt I had to leave. “The only job I would take as an assistant was at United because of the bond that I have with the people in the club and the fans. “But in the end I got my head around it because I also understand the new manager. I’m in football long enough, and I’ve managed myself, that you can think of a situation, me being there, I understand. “I spoke to Ruben about it, fair enough to him, the conversation was grateful, man to man, person to person, manager to manager, and that helped a lot to move on and straightaway get into talks with new possibilities which of course lifted my spirits.” The Dutchman takes on a difficult job at the King Power Stadium as he is tasked with keeping Leicester in the Premier League. He inherits an influential dressing room, which has seen a number of managers come and go over the last few years. Ruud's here for his first press conference as our Manager 😃 pic.twitter.com/A4Juixvorb — Leicester City (@LCFC) December 2, 2024 Van Nistelrooy revealed he has done his due diligence and also let the players know as well. “It’s the only way you can work. It’s mutual respect. I also mentioned to the players yesterday that I looked at the squad and started to make phone calls about players, because in football everyone knows everyone,” he said. “With two or three phone calls you hear stories about 20 players and for me it was important that you hear there are good characters there. That’s important, that there are good people there. “I look at the players how they play. I obviously don’t know them but I got general information and the individuals that they are a good bunch of people. That was important for me to get in.”
By JUAN A. LOZANO, Associated Press HOUSTON (AP) — An elaborate parody appears to be behind an effort to resurrect Enron, the Houston-based energy company that exemplified the worst in American corporate fraud and greed after it went bankrupt in 2001. If its return is comedic, some former employees who lost everything in Enron’s collapse aren’t laughing. “It’s a pretty sick joke and it disparages the people that did work there. And why would you want to even bring it back up again?” said former Enron employee Diana Peters, who represented workers in the company’s bankruptcy proceedings. Here’s what to know about the history of Enron and the purported effort to bring it back. Once the nation’s seventh-largest company, Enron filed for bankruptcy protection on Dec. 2, 2001, after years of accounting tricks could no longer hide billions of dollars in debt or make failing ventures appear profitable. The energy company’s collapse put more than 5,000 people out of work, wiped out more than $2 billion in employee pensions and rendered $60 billion in Enron stock worthless. Its aftershocks were felt throughout the energy sector. Twenty-four Enron executives , including former CEO Jeffrey Skilling , were eventually convicted for their roles in the fraud. Enron founder Ken Lay’s convictions were vacated after he died of heart disease following his 2006 trial. On Monday — the 23rd anniversary of the bankruptcy filing — a company representing itself as Enron announced in a news release that it was relaunching as a “company dedicated to solving the global energy crisis.” It also posted a video on social media, advertised on at least one Houston billboard and a took out a full-page ad in the Houston Chronicle In the minute-long video that was full of generic corporate jargon, the company talks about “growth” and “rebirth.” It ends with the words, “We’re back. Can we talk?” Enron’s new website features a company store, where various items featuring the brand’s tilted “E” logo are for sale, including a $118 hoodie. In an email, company spokesperson Will Chabot said the new Enron was not doing any interviews yet, but that “We’ll have more to share soon.” Signs point to the comeback being a joke. In the “terms of use and conditions of sale” on the company’s website, it says “the information on the website about Enron is First Amendment protected parody, represents performance art, and is for entertainment purposes only.” Documents filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office show that College Company, an Arkansas-based LLC, owns the Enron trademark. The co-founder of College Company is Connor Gaydos, who helped create a joke conspiracy theory that claims all birds are actually surveillance drones for the government. Peters said that since learning about the “relaunch” of Enron, she has spoken with several other former employees and they are also upset by it. She said the apparent stunt was “in poor taste.” “If it’s a joke, it’s rude, extremely rude. And I hope that they realize it and apologize to all of the Enron employees,” Peters said. Peters, who is 74 years old, said she is still working in information technology because “I lost everything in Enron, and so my Social Security doesn’t always take care of things I need done.” “Enron’s downfall taught us critical lessons about corporate ethics, accountability, and the consequences of unchecked ambition. Enron’s legacy was the employees in the trenches. Leave Enron buried,” she said. Follow Juan A. Lozano on X at https://x.com/juanlozano70
The Phase 1b study will evaluate LV UNO in unresectable cutaneous or subcutaneous histologically confirmed primary or metastatic solid tumor cancer patients that have progressed or have prolonged stable disease on single agent PD-1 inhibitors The primary objective of the Phase 1b study is to assess preliminary efficacy by objective response rate (ORR) and duration of response (DOR) per RECIST version 1.1 and secondarily immune-related response via iRECIST The study will recruit patients from four sites across Israel HAMILTON, Bermuda, Dec. 03, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Beyond Cancer, Ltd., a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing ultra-high concentration nitric oxide (UNO) as an immunotherapeutic for solid tumors, today announced that the Israeli Ministry of Health (IMOH) has approved the use of Low Volume UNO (LV UNO) in a Phase 1b clinical trial of LV UNO in combination with anti-PD-1 therapy. The trial will be conducted at four sites in Israel and patient screening will begin in the first quarter of 2025. The Phase 1b trial (NCT05351502) is a clinical proof-of-concept trial that will assess the intratumoral administration of LV UNO in patients with unresectable cutaneous or subcutaneous histologically confirmed primary or metastatic lesions, who have shown disease progression or prolonged stable disease (≥ 12 weeks) after receiving a single agent anti-PD-1 containing treatment. The trial, which is expected to enroll up to 20 subjects, is designed to assess the preliminary efficacy of LV UNO by objective response rate (ORR) and duration of response (DOR) per RECIST v1.1 and secondarily immune-related response via iRECIST. Safety and tolerability of LV UNO in combination with anti-PD-1 therapy, as well as its potential to enhance the type, density, and distribution of immune cells within the tumor microenvironment will also be observed. Topline data from the Phase 1b portion of the study are anticipated in the second half of 2025. "We are excited to initiate the Phase 1b trial of LV UNO, a potentially groundbreaking solid tumor treatment approach, in combination with PD-1 inhibitors," said Dr. Jedidiah Monson, Chief Medical Officer of Beyond Cancer. "In preclinical studies, a single dose of UNO has been shown to increase PD-L1 expression and improve overall survival in animal models compared to anti-PD-1 alone. Further, Phase 1a human data that demonstrated immune system activation were presented at ASCO's Key Opinion Leader Event held in June 2024. We look forward to the Phase 1b trial results to establish the basis of further investigation of UNO in combination with PD-1 inhibitors." "The initiation of the Phase 1b trial represents a major step forward in our vision for personalized cancer treatment. We see UNO as a complementary therapy for future cancer treatment paradigms, particularly for patients with anti-PD-1 refractory or resistant disease, potentially offering more patients access to effective treatment," stated Dr. Selena Chaisson, Chief Executive Officer, and Director of Beyond Cancer. About Nitric Oxide Nitric Oxide (NO) is a potent molecule, naturally synthesized in the human body, proven to play a critical role in a broad array of biological functions. In the airways, NO targets the vascular smooth muscle cells that surround the small resistance arteries in the lungs. Currently, exogenous inhaled NO is used in adult respiratory distress syndrome, post certain cardiac surgeries and persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn to treat hypoxemia. Additionally, NO is believed to play a key role in the innate immune system and in vitro studies suggest that NO possesses anti-microbial activity not only against common bacteria, including both gram-positive and gram-negative, but also against other diverse pathogens. About UNO Therapy for Solid Tumors Cancer is the second leading cause of death globally, with tumor metastases responsible for approximately 90% of all cancer-related deaths. Current cancer treatment modalities generally include chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation, and/or surgery. Ultra-high concentration Nitric Oxide (UNO) therapy is a completely new approach to preventing relapse or metastatic disease. In vitro murine data show that local tumor ablation with UNO stimulates an anti-tumor immune response in solid tumor cancer models. Beyond Cancer, Ltd. believes that UNO has the potential to prevent relapse or metastatic disease with as little as a single 5-minute treatment and with limited toxicity or off-target effects. About Beyond Cancer, Ltd. Beyond Cancer, Ltd. is a development-stage biopharmaceutical and medical device company utilizing ultra-high concentration nitric oxide (UNO) via a proprietary delivery platform to treat primary tumors and prevent metastatic disease. Nitric oxide at ultra-high concentrations has been reported to show anticancer properties and to potentially serve as a chemosensitizer and radiotherapy enhancer. A first-in-human study is underway in patients with solid tumors. Beyond Cancer is also conducting preclinical studies of UNO in multiple solid tumor models to inform additional treatment protocols.

F&O Talk | Nifty rally not sustainable on few big names, broader participation essential: Rahul Ghose of Hedged.inMIAMI GARDENS — The Miami Dolphins played their game of the season for the second consecutive week. And this one was better than the previous one. The Dolphins easily dispatched New England, 34-15 , on Sunday at Hard Rock Stadium, extending their winning streak to a season-best three games. The win sets up a monster matchup at Green Bay on Thursday for the Dolphins (5-6), who are clawing their way back into the AFC playoff picture. A win on Thursday and it’s a brand new season . Here are some more takeaways from Sunday’s game: Fans at Hard Rock Stadium partied like they hadn’t all season Sunday during the Patriots game. This was the Dolphins’ best all-around home performance since their 30-0 victory over the New York Jets on Dec. 17, and their best home win since defeating Dallas, 22-20, on Christmas Eve to secure a playoff berth. The Dolphins defeated Jacksonville to open the season, 20-17, but the game had fans on edge. The Dolphins won on a Jason Sanders field goal as time expired. The Dolphins’ other home win prior to Sunday was a 34-19 win over Las Vegas last week. The Dolphins have won back-to-back home games for the first time since the Jets-Cowboys wins late last season. — Chris Perkins The Dolphins scored 34 points, meaning they’ve scored more than 30 points in back-to-back games for the first time since winning at the New York Jets (34-13) and Washington (45-15) on Nov. 24 and Dec. 3, respectively, last season. The Dolphins defeated Las Vegas, 34-19, last week. The Dolphins are now averaging 29 points per game in the five games since quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (29 of 40, 317 yards, four touchdowns, no interceptions, 128.9 passer rating) has returned from his concussion. The Dolphins are 3-2 in those games. Wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (eight receptions, 144 yards, one touchdown) had his most productive game of the year in the first half Sunday. Waddle totaled six receptions for 118 yards in the first half. Waddle entered the game with 33 receptions for 404 yards and one touchdown for the season. Waddle had eclipsed 1,000 yard receiving in each of his first three seasons. He’s unlikely to reach that total this year. But his involvement in the offense Sunday after being limited earlier this season by the two-high safety scheme and being pressed at the line of scrimmage is a promising sign. Wide receiver Tyreek Hill ended with five receptions for 48 yards. Tight end Jonnu Smith (nine receptions, 87 yards, one touchdown) had a 7-yard touchdown reception early in the second quarter and generally sparked the offense, which is what he’s been doing for the last seven games. Smith, who had a career bests of 50 receptions for 582 yards last season with Atlanta, has 46 receptions for 519 yards this season. It’s been a remarkable escalation for Smith, who totaled a mere nine receptions for 78 yards through four games this season. It’s as though once the Dolphins discovered what Smith could do, they decided to utilize his skills. Dolphins Deep Dive, Monday at noon: Perkins, Hyde break down Patriots game and look ahead to Packers game Tagovailoa and left tackle Terron Armstead exited the game in the fourth quarter after the Dolphins had a 31-7 lead because coach Mike McDaniel wisely took both out of the game. Both have had injury concerns so removing them from the game was the smart thing, especially with the Green Bay game in four days. Of course, Tagovailoa’s respite only lasted two plays. Rookie running back Jaylen Wright’s fumble with Skylar Thompson at quarterback was returned 62 yards for a touchdown. The ensuing two-point conversion cut the Dolphins’ lead to 31-15 and Tagovailoa re-entered the game after sitting out two plays. McDaniel was taking any chances with this victory. Rookie edge rusher Chop Robinson, who finished with 1.5 sacks, had a sack in the second quarter. And even better, there was a coordinated celebration effort as numerous defenders got in on the celebratory “chop.” Robinson, the first-round pick from Penn State, has been line up wider in recent games, giving him a better option to go inside or outside. On his sack, Robinson blew past right tackle Demontry Jacobs to take down quarterback Drake Maye. It was Robinson’s third sack in the last four games. He has 3.0 sacks for the season. Since Week 9, one rookie, Los Angeles Rams defensive lineman Braden Fiske, has more sacks (4.0). On the celebratory chop, Robinson gathered his teammates and in unison, they each took an imaginary ax and struck a downward blow. Running back De’Von Achane, who sustained a concussion in the first game against New England, didn’t wear a Guardian cap for the second consecutive game. Achane (10 carries, 32 yards; three receptions, 24 yards, two touchdowns) said he wore the device, which is basically a cushion that fits over the helmet, on the advice of his mother. Players routinely wear Guardian caps during training camp and during the week in practice. Research says they only minimally reduce concussion risks. Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa opted to not wear the Guardian cap upon his return from a four-game absence due to a concussion. New England had four penalties for 25 yards and a missed 45-yard field goal attempt in the first quarter. The Patriots had the ball for 10:04 of the 15-minute quarter and ran 14 plays for a total of 94 yards. The Dolphins had nine plays for 72 yards. The Patriots never recovered. They fell behind 14-0 in the second quarter and the game was over. By the way, New England (10 penalties, 75 yards) might be the worst team the Dolphins faced this season. It’s close, but they probably edge Las Vegas for worst opponent. Rookie cornerback Storm Duck played the first quarter as the boundary cornerback in the nickel package while cornerback Cam Smith played a couple of series in the second quarter. Veteran cornerback Kendall Fuller missed his second consecutive game due to a concussion, opening a spot in the nickel package. Kader Kohou, the usual slot/nickel cornerback, is starting on the boundary in Fuller place. Kohou stays at his normal slot position in the nickel and Duck or Smith plays the boundary opposite cornerback Jalen Ramsey. Both Duck and Smith continue to show promise. Running back Raheem Mostert (two carries, five yards; one receptions, minus-3 yards) and tight end Durham Smythe (one reception, eight yards) continued seeing their playing time get reduced. Mostert, a Pro Bowl selection last season after amassing a franchise-record 21 touchdowns, didn’t play from scrimmage until the second quarter. He’s had his playing time cut since he lost fumbles at Indianapolis and Buffalo. Smythe, who has had his playing time reduced due to the emergence of tight ends Smith, the receiver, and Julian Hill, the blocker, also got his first snap from scrimmage in the second quarter. Yes, his second-quarter 9-yard sack of Drake Maye is what everyone can see on his record, but just as impactful in the first half of the game (as the Dolphins ripped control of the game from the Patriots) with no statistical compartment were his drawn holding call on Demontrey Jacobs that created a first-quarter, drive hobbling second-and-16, then his blowing past Patriots tight end Austin Hooper, blowing up a Rhamondre Stevenson sweep, with Jordyn Brooks cleaning it up by logging the tackle, and finally the apparent sack and forced fumble that was reviewed into an incomplete pass. Additionally, Emmanual Ogbah got a sack late in the first half that Robinson was also on the scene of. In the second half, Chop crushed Maye on an incompletion, a contact from which a worn-out Maye was slow to rise and later batted a pass. I can’t recall a higher-impact performance by a rookie Dolphins draftee on defense in a long time. Maybe Olivier Vernon’s tour de force in 2012 against the Rams. — Steve Svekis In each of his four games he has played against the New England Patriots at Hard Rock Stadium, Jaylen Waddle has scored a touchdown. His numbers in that quartet of contests in Miami Gardens? He has 24 receptions for 361 yards and those four TDs. The game against New England made the Dolphins 11 for 11 in not allowing at least 400 yards to an opposing offense. The last time a Miami team went the full season without allowing at least 400 yards was in 2006, in the 16-game era. The Patriots, despite getting crushed by four penalties for 25 yards, still had fine work done, gaining 94 yards in the first quarter. However, Miami’s defense basically ended the suspense in the second quarter, propelled by three tackle-for-loss plays that went for at least minus-5-yards each on non-kneeldowns (Emmanuel Ogbah 5-yard sack, Jordyn Brooks minus-6-yard tackle of Rhamondre Stevenson and Chop Robinson’s 9-yard sack). In those second 15 minutes, the Pats lost 10 yards. Tyrel Dodson’s spectacular drama-ending interception (hello...what an in-season waiver pickup) was reminiscent of the best vertical work of DeVante Parker from 2015-21. While Tua Tagovailoa has had some sparkling recent highlights of him climbing up past a deep edge rush, leaking outside of the tackle box and finding a target for a big pass play, he barely had to move off the last step of his dropback against the Patriots as Aaron Brewer, Terron Armstead and company eradicated any semblance of a New England pass rush. The Dolphins will face temperatures possibly as low as the teens at Lambeau Field on Thanksgiving night. The last time the Dolphins played in a temperature that cold was the minus-4-degree debacle in Kansas City in January when Miami lost 26-7 in the wild-card playoff game. The most recent Dolphins regular-season game with a kickoff temperature below 22 degrees was in 2008 when Miami beat 2-14 Kansas City at Arrowhead 38-31 with a kickoff temperature of 10 degrees. The Dolphins have never beaten a team with a winning record in a game that had a kickoff temperature below 23 degrees.NEWCASTLE, England (AP) — Newcastle’s winning run in the English Premier League came to an abrupt end when goals from Thomas Souček and Aaron Wan-Bissaka gave West Ham a surprise 2-0 win at St. James’ Park on Monday. The Hammers rose into 14th place and the pressure on coach Julen Lopetegui was eased. The London club has been inconsistent all season and Monday’s win was just its fourth in 12 league games. West Ham was worth the win in the end but the three points came courtesy of slack defending by the home side. Emerson whipped in an out-swinging corner after 10 minutes and, with Newcastle defenders rooted to the spot, Souček stole in to nod home the opener. Then eight minutes into the second half, captain Jarrod Bowen found Wan-Bissaka in the penalty box and he was left unchallenged and had time to fire an angled drive past Nick Pope. Newcastle brought on Harvey Barnes, and then Callum Wilson returned from a long-term back injury to make his first appearance of the season but to no avail. The defeat ended a three-game winning streak for Newcastle and left the Saudi Arabia-owned club in ninth place, four points outside the top four. ___ AP soccer:

Experts Warn of Hidden Mold Dangers During Toronto's Winter MonthsBy Echo Wang NEW YORK (Reuters) – Artificial intelligence cloud platform CoreWeave, is aiming for a valuation of more than $35 billion in its U.S. initial public offering that is expected to occur next year, people familiar with the matter told Reuters on Friday. Roseland, New Jersey-based CoreWeave is likely to target raising more than $3 billion from its share sale, which could launch during the second quarter of 2025, the sources said, cautioning that the company’s plans are subject to market conditions and could change. The discussions come at a time when investor interest in generative AI is sky-rocketing. The AI boom, which has powered chipmakers such as Nvidia, and other big tech firms, has turbocharged global demand for infrastructure such as data centers and high-powered servers. Reuters reported in September that data center operator Switch is exploring an IPO that could value the company at about $40 billion, including debt. Funding for private AI and cloud startups in the U.S., Europe and Israel is rising after three years of decline, and is estimated to touch $79.2 billion by the end of this year, venture capital firm Accel said in October. CoreWeave offers access to data centers and high-powered chips for AI workloads, primarily supplied by Nvidia, one of the company’s main backers. It competes against larger cloud computing service providers such as tech giant Microsoft’s Azure and Amazon’s AWS. CoreWeave declined to comment. A broader wave of high-profile names is gearing up for potential listings next year, as the IPO market shows early signs of thawing after several bouts of market volatility shut down capital markets for much of the last two years. CoreWeave recently completed a $650 million secondary share sale, which valued it at $23 billion. Investors led by Jane Street, Magnetar, Fidelity Management, and Macquarie Capital participated in the secondary stock deal. Bloomberg reported in November that CoreWeave had tapped investment banks for its IPO preparations.
