JPMorgan Chase Predicts Global AI-Related Bond Issuance to Reach Nearly $570 Billion by 2026
On June 10th, Morgan Stanley’s latest projections show that global AI-related bond issuance is set to hit nearly $570 billion by 2026—more than double the total from last year. As of the end of May, roughly $236 billion in global AI-focused debt financing has been issued, around four times the amount recorded in the same period a year earlier. With capital expenditures by mega-scale cloud service providers projected to exceed $1 trillion in 2027, Morgan Stanley forecasts the bond issuance pace will further accelerate in the second half of this year. To diversify financing channels, tech giants like Alphabet and Amazon have issued a large volume of Eurobonds, expanding their financing currencies beyond the U.S. dollar market. Meanwhile, semiconductor firms are increasingly leaning toward short-term financing with installment repayment structures.

Sickle Slashes at Index Fund Investors: S&P Dow Jones Indicates SpaceX Eligible for Fast Inclusion in Some Indexes
June 10. Right as moves that rattled index fund investors and U.S. retirement savers unfolded, S&P Dow Jones Indices just announced SpaceX qualifies for fast-track inclusion in some of its indices.
That said, S&P is already aligning with competitors on this trend. Beyond S&P itself, other independent index providers have tweaked rules to let mega-IPOs like SpaceX land in their indices quickly. FTSE Russell rolled out a new fast-track rule recently: eligible mega-cap firms (SpaceX being a key example) can join its Russell 1000, 2000, 3000 and FTSE Global Equity Index Series just 5 trading days after going public, with eligibility mostly hinging on market cap.
