CDT Roundup: Data Centers Continue to Dominate as $16B Week Defies Oil’s Downshift
The week ending Aug. 9 was a strong one by any measure: 19 deals for $16 billion. It follows 17 deals at $19 billion the week prior and compares very favorably with 20 deals for $12 billion this time last year. There were, of course, a healthy number involving data centers or data center infrastructure. Those will be moving the dial for a while. But the word that best describes the week is "wrinkled." Because there were lots of wrinkles. That and more in this edition of CDT Roundup.

CDT Roundup: AI’s Energy Appetite Continues to Fuel Tech, O&G Deals
The week ending Aug. 2 saw 17 transactions reporting values of $19 billion. You can compare that to last week's 15 deals for $3 billion or the 26 deals for $16 billion we reported this time last year. The news this week is the same news last week: It's all about AI infrastructure. The good news is that even those deals cut a healthy swath across emerging data-related business sectors. That and more in this edition of CDT Roundup.

CDT Roundup: Watt a Week as Deals Spark Up Power and Security
The week ending July 26 saw 15 transactions for just over $3 billion, which doesn't sound like much. The volume is akin to the week before, in which 14 deals were reported for $6 billion. But both pale against the 19 transactions for $16.4 billion reported last year. The plain truth is that transactions in M&A dwindled in Q2 and have stayed dwindled in the first few weeks of Q3. But take heart; Q2 was the weakest quarter in Texas M&A deals last year and the year before. But there was plenty of diversity in the mix.
CDT Roundup: Tech Titans, Crypto Surges and Old School Deals Meet Bold Moves
The week ending July 18 saw 14 deals for $6 billion dollars. The week prior saw 15 deals for $13 billion and there were 15 deals for $16 billion reported during the same week last year. But consider the actual deals and you begin to sense a difference: a $25 billion data center deal that probably will be but really isn't yet; a flurry of placements aimed at flipping the switch on crypto assets; an IPO for a Japanese AI-driven HR platform whose goal is to be a lawyer.
