AI Debt Blowups Become Fodder for ETFs Aimed at Retail Investors
Two investment firms are seeking to launch exchange-traded funds that would let retail investors bet on fear about potential credit defaults at artificial intelligence companies, just as the AI trade reels from one of its sharpest selloffs in years.
