Bank of America and others launch $60 billion financing to support Anthropic leasing Google AI chips
According to the Financial Times, Bank of America, Citigroup, and Morgan Stanley have begun distributing a total debt financing package of $60 billion to other banks, to support Anthropic’s leasing of Google (GOOG.US) AI chips in what is the largest chip financing deal to date. Of this amount, approximately $42 billion consists of senior secured loans backed by Broadcom (AVGO.US), with syndication launching on Monday; an additional $18 billion, a tranche of subordinated debt without Broadcom’s backing, is expected to be launched later, with Blackstone committed to providing about $9 billion of the funding. The funds raised will support Anthropic’s chip orders for 2027, with lease payments beginning after chip delivery. Broadcom may also receive up to $42 billion in convertible notes from Anthropic as payment for related leasing costs. This $60 billion financing is being seen as a key test of market demand for AI-related debt.

Fitch says North American oil hedging currently faces book losses, natural gas traders lock in prices for 2028
Fitch Ratings has published a related assessment showing that oil hedging operations in North America have currently resulted in paper losses, while natural gas producers are moving to lock in favorable prices for 2028. It is understood that hedging activities by energy companies are primarily intended to counter commodity price fluctuations and stabilize operating cash flows. The recent paper losses in oil hedging are directly linked to the volatility in international oil prices. Meanwhile, natural gas producers' decisions to secure advantageous prices years in advance reflect the industry’s clear expectations regarding future supply and demand dynamics and price trends for natural gas. This early positioning aims to safeguard future profit margins and mitigate the operational uncertainties that potential market price fluctuations may bring.
