With the 10-year Treasury yield near 5.17%, up about 1 percentage point since the start of 2026, companies financing AI infrastructure through debt face higher borrowing costs. JPMorgan Chase estimates $4.1 trillion in AI-related debt will be issued through 2030. Some lenders are becoming more selective, focusing on about 20 of 50 neocloud firms, while major borrowers like SoftBank raised $11.1 billion in junk bonds with yields up to 9.75%, signaling price-insensitive demand. For a financial institution, this indicates increased credit risk and potential for tighter financing conditions in the AI infrastructure segment.
