  "summary": "Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison has pledged an additional 67 million shares of Oracle (NYSE:ORCL) as collateral for personal loans, adding $9.2 billion to the total amount of Oracle stock Ellison has pledged as collateral compared to last year, according to a proxy filing released on Friday. This represents a 19% increase in the amount of Oracle stock Ellison has pledged since 2025, and now makes up about 36% of Ellison's holdings in the company. The 82-year-old technology billionaire owns approximately 1.16 billion Oracle shares. The disclosure comes as Ellison assists in financing his son David Ellison's planned $111 billion acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery (NASDAQ:WBD), with the Ellisons committing $47 billion in equity financing, of which about $24 billion is coming from Middle Eastern sovereign wealth funds.",
