Amazon aims to raise $25 billion from bond sale, Bloomberg News reports

Source: Reuters

Amazon.com is looking to raise at least $25 billion through ​a U.S. dollar bond sale, Bloomberg News reported on Tuesday, in ‌the company's latest push to fund its hefty AI investments.

Tech companies have been tapping debt markets and launching equity sales to fund their costly AI infrastructure build-out. Big Tech, including ​Amazon, Alphabet, Microsoft, and Meta, are expected to spend more than $700 ​billion on AI this year.

The size of Amazon's offering could ⁠increase depending on investor demand, Bloomberg said, citing people familiar with the ​matter.

A regulatory filing by the tech giant from earlier in the day showed ​it has filed for an eight-part offering of floating and fixed-rate notes. The company declined to confirm the size of the offering to Reuters.

AI is starting to fall in value due to its inability to monetize. I think he could have not rented an entire city for his wedding and used some of that money instead.
