Théories spectrales, chapter I, § 1. Spectres et caractères

Suppose that the algebra A is nonzero. Let x∈Ax\in A be a nilpotent element. Let nn be an integer such that xn=0x^n= 0. The spectrum of xnx^n reduces to 0, hence the same is true of the spectrum of xx by Remark 4.

Bourbaki sets the proof directly after the statement, and the corpus does not separate them, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
