Brian Sozzi breaks down a new Barclays note showing that capital raised by hyperscalers, data center special purpose vehicles and neoclouds through investment-grade debt, high-yield debt and equity rose from $172 billion in 2025 to $346 billion so far this year, as credit spreads widen and credit default swap spreads rise. Plus OpenAI’s reported $30 billion capital raise, and why Sozzi thinks it could end up raising even more.
