Analysts at BofA Global Research on Friday raised their forecast for the hyperscalers' new debt in 2026 to $175 billion from $140 billion. This was followed in October by Meta's $30 billion deal and November deals from Alphabet ($17.5 billion) and Amazon ($15 billion). This year saw a $31.51 billion global bond raise by Alphabet in February, which included a rare 100-year "century" bond as part of the deal. Most recently, Amazon raised about $37 billion across 11 tranches in the U.S. bond market on March 10. This was followed the next day by a 14.5 billion euro-denominated ($16.8 billion) bond raise by the company.
