Alphabet is looking to raise up to $25 billion from its latest bond sale, according to Bloomberg News. The offering reportedly includes $17.5 billion in US notes and roughly €6.5 billion (about $7.48 billion) in European debt, spanning maturities from 3 to 50 years.
The AI arms race has a price tag
Alphabet has signaled plans to spend between $175 billion and $185 billion on capital expenditures in 2026, more than double the prior year’s figure.
Alphabet isn’t alone in this strategy. Meta reportedly conducted a $30 billion bond offering, while Nvidia also tapped markets for $25 billion to fund its own AI investments. Investor demand for these tech bonds has remained remarkably strong, with offerings often oversubscribed by multiple times.
