The leather jacket bubble.

Tomorrow you can buy a Tom Ford jacket worn by Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang at auction, but you might have stiff competition in the bidding.

Blernsball:

NVIDIA is going to lend OpenAI 50K to buy this, then OpenAI will lease it to Coreweave for 10K a month on a two year contract. Coreweave pledges to buy twenty more jackets from NIVIDA in the future. In return, NVIDIA will lease the jacket from Coreweave for 8K a month over 5 years.
