Data center-related debt issuances is exploding:
US secured debt issuance tied to data centers is projected to reach a record $25.4 billion in 2025.
This would represent a +112% jump from the $12.0 billion issued in 2024.
Since 2022, data center debt issuances have skyrocketed +1,854%.
Meanwhile, BofA estimates there is already ~$49 billion in data center Asset-Backed and Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities (CMBS) outstanding.
The AI investment boom is spurring widespread borrowing.
Data centers are the backbone of our digital age, but this debt spree signals something deeper. Inflation, reckless spending smells like a bubble about to pop. Buckle up, folks.
