The cost of insuring the debt of major US technology companies against default has reached new peaks following a series of disappointing quarterly earnings reports. These developments have heightened concerns about the sustainability of the extensive borrowing that has been fueling the AI boom. Notable companies affected include Intel, Amazon , Alphabet , and SpaceX, with credit default swap (CDS) spreads for these firms reaching record levels. The data suggest that market participants are increasingly pricing in higher risk, driven by the aggressive debt financing of AI-related projects.
