Hyperscale tech companies have sharply increased their capital expenditure budgets, driven largely by vendor financing reminiscent of the Internet boom era. A notable example is Oracle's $300 billion, five-year agreement with OpenAI, which has significantly boosted both capex and debt levels. Off-balance-sheet obligations among these companies have surpassed $3 trillion, raising concerns about financial stability. The expansion heavily relies on OpenAI, which is currently losing money but must meet substantial financial commitments starting in 2027, posing potential risks to investors and the market.
