On October 20th, SoftBank Group witnessed its credit risk soar to the highest point in almost four years, amid escalating market anxieties regarding financing within the artificial intelligence (AI) sector and the prospect of sizable acquisition endeavors. Institutional data disclosed that on Tuesday, the five-year credit default swap (CDS) spread for SoftBank reached 432 basis points, marking the highest level since early November 2022. Having surpassed the 400 basis point threshold a week prior, this metric has now climbed by over an additional 30 basis points. The financial strain experienced by CoreWeave, a U.S. cloud computing service provider, underscores the mounting debt challenges amid the AI investment surge. Concurrently, with financing costs on the rise and SoftBank contemplating the acquisition of security firm Allied Universal, its strategic maneuvers in the market are garnering substantial attention.
