Advanced Asian economies are particularly vulnerable due to their reliance on AI-driven exports. The Financial Times reports that stock markets face a growing threat of an AI-driven crunch linked to circular financing, where large tech firms have provided $300 billion in equity and $650 billion in debt to startups.
