Event Summary

Amazon.com is raising at least $25 billion through a U.S. dollar bond sale to fund its hefty AI investments. The offering, which includes eight tranches of floating and fixed-rate notes with maturities from 3 to 40 years, saw peak demand of $62 billion. Barclays, Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan, and Morgan Stanley are joint book-running managers. This marks a shift for Big Tech, which typically relies on cash reserves; Alphabet recently raised $85 billion in equity, and Meta sold $25 billion in bonds earlier this year. Amazon previously raised $37 billion in a March bond sale.
