Anyone who has hit the usage limit on an AI subscription knows the problem: intelligence may be digital, but it is not free. At enterprise scale, that limit becomes a question of profitability. If agents consume more tokens than expected, the cost of automation can quickly start to look less attractive than the human labour it was supposed to replace.
Meanwhile, corporate leadership is evolving rapidly: only 135 of the S&P 500 constituents from 1996 are still in the index today, while the EU goods trade deficit with China is close to a record €376bn. Each week, the Syz investment team takes you through the last seven days in seven charts.
