AI hyperscalers face record credit risk as bond yields surge amid costly infrastructure investments.

Credit default swaps (CDS) for major AI infrastructure companies like Oracle have widened to record levels, signaling rising credit risk due to heavy investments and weakening cash flow. Meanwhile, investment-grade corporate bond yields have hit decade highs, reflecting broader market concerns beyond AI firms. Despite recent yield spikes, junk bond spreads remain historically narrow, suggesting that downside risks may not be fully priced in yet. This trend highlights growing caution among investors about the sustainability of AI infrastructure spending and overall market risk appetite.
