Broadcom Inc.’s Wall Street syndicate is preparing to raise $60 billion in fresh AI chip financing to support Anthropic PBC and other companies, according to people familiar with the matter.
Banks involved in the debt package are expected to send out syndication letters for a $42 billion Class A senior-secured tranche, the people said, asking not to be identified because the deal has not yet been announced.
Blackstone Inc. is leading an $18 billion Class B junior-debt tranche, committing $9 billion from various funds and planning to syndicate the remainder.
A representative for Broadcom declined to comment.
The financing has been taking shape for several weeks and is being closely watched by Wall Street and Silicon Valley as a test of investor appetite for funding the continued expansion of AI infrastructure.
Broadcom is seeking to sell more chips and other data-center equipment as it competes with Nvidia Corp., while AI companies such as Anthropic require increasing amounts of computing capacity.
The potential deal would help Anthropic and other companies finance access to chips and other critical AI infrastructure. It would add to the hundreds of billions of dollars already raised to support AI infrastructure, including data centers, chips and servers. Yahoo Finance reports.
🧠 Micron Analyst Dismisses Supply Glut Fears As AI Memory Crunch Deepens
Micron Technology Inc. (NASDAQ: MU) has emerged as a major beneficiary of the AI infrastructure boom, as surging memory demand, constrained supply, and strong data-center utilization support pricing and earnings expectations.
Micron’s latest results reinforced expectations for a prolonged AI-driven memory cycle, although analysts remain divided over how long elevated pricing can persist as new capacity comes online.
The stock has gained nearly 300% in 2026, driven by an AI-led memory “supercycle” that has contributed to a global supply shortage. Benzinga reports.

🛢️ The Iran War Is Driving Inflation Higher — and It’s Not Just Because of Oil
U.S. bond yields have surged over the past month, with yields on both the 10-year Treasury and 30-year Treasury reaching levels not seen since 2002 and surpassing their 2007 highs in the lead-up to the financial crisis.
Investors have attributed the rise in yields to a variety of concerns, from the artificial intelligence buildout and competition for capital to changing foreign ownership patterns in gold versus fixed income.
One overlooked source of upward pressure, according to Macquarie’s Thierry Wizman, is not just the impact of the Iran war on energy markets, but also uncertainty over when the war will end and how the conflict may develop.
“The perception that global conflict is endemic may also be causing long-term inflation expectation[s] to stay elevated,” Wizman wrote to clients.
Wizman said the uncertainty facing investors also centers on the midterm elections. Yahoo Finance reports.
