Oracle to invest $3 billion in AI, cloud expansion in Germany, Netherlands
Oracle will invest $3 billion in Germany and the Netherlands over the next five years to bolster its infrastructure powering artificial intelligence and cloud offerings in the European market, the company said on Tuesday. The Austin, Texas-based company joins a growing list of technology firms that have pledged tens of billions of dollars to meet robust cloud computing demand as businesses increasingly deploy AI workloads. Last year, Amazon said it would invest 10 billion euros in Germany, bringing its total planned investments in the European country to 17.8 billion euros. Together, big tech companies are expected to spend $320 billion on AI this year. On Monday, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said the social media giant would spend hundreds of billions of dollars to build several massive AI data centers. Demand has been growing for the cloud and AI services offered by firms including Oracle, Microsoft and Google because they can replace or outperform software created by traditional IT firms, some analysts say. Oracle would spend $2 billion in Germany and $1 billion in the Netherlands, the company said in separate statements. Its shares rose 2% in trading before the bell. They have risen nearly 38% so far this year. The company expects its capital spending to surpass $25 billion in fiscal 2026, with the bulk of the expenditure committed to data-center infrastructure, including for AI. "As we bring more capacity online, our revenue and profit growth will further accelerate," Oracle CEO Safra Catz said in June. Oracle has secured a deal with an undisclosed client that is expected to generate over $30 billion in annual revenue for the company starting in fiscal year 2028, according to a regulatory filing last month.

Apple invests $500 million in rare earths producer MP Materials
Apple said on Tuesday it would invest $500 million into rare earths mine operator MP Materials , as the iPhone maker seeks to localize its mineral supply chain. The investment is part of a broader push to bring the production of its coveted iPhones to the United States and boost U.S. manufacturing amid a push from the Trump administration to cut reliance on China. Rare earths are a group of 17 metals used to make magnets that turn power into motion. China halted rare earths exports in March following a trade spat with U.S. President Donald Trump that showed some signs of easing late last month, even as broader tensions underscored demand for non-Chinese supply. Shares of Las Vegas-based MP Materials jumped 10% to $52.37 in premarket trading. MP last week agreed to a multibillion-dollar deal with the U.S. Department of Defense to boost output of rare earth magnets and help loosen China's market control. Apple said the MP investment is part of its $500 billion commitment to the United States. The agreement includes plans for Apple to purchase U.S.-made rare earth magnets from MP Materials' Texas facility. It would be the first supply deal for MP's magnets since the financial backstop agreement with Washington. MP already produces mined and processed rare earths and has said it expects to start commercial magnet production in Texas facility by the end of this year. The two companies would build another factory in Texas to produce magnets and a new recycling facility in Mountain Pass, California, near the company's existing mine. Last week's deal with the U.S. government includes a price floor for rare earths, designed to spur investment in domestic mines and processing plants, which has been lagging partly due to low prices set in China.
