Broadcom Seeks $60-100 Billion SPV Debt for Anthropic AI Chip Financing

Broadcom's $100 billion SPV push accelerates the AI debt supercycle that is already displacing Treasury paper and elevating yields. Credit markets are registering the risk faster than equity narratives acknowledge. The transaction crystallizes the incentive misalignment between corporate capex targets and sovereign debt management.

Next data points are the scale of the final tranche and whether other chipmakers replicate the structure before year-end earnings.

⚡ Prediction

Charlie McElligott: 10-year Treasury yield will test 4.60% within 90 days if AI SPV issuance exceeds $150 billion.
