JPMorgan says AI label alone no longer secures lender funding

JPMorgan says lenders now want evidence that AI-linked firms can fund investment, service debt and turn spending into cash, as default insurance costs on some of them hit records.

Key points

  • Justin Biemann of J.P. Morgan Private Bank said in a 23 Oct report that companies must show they can finance investment, service debt and eventually generate cash flow.
  • Morgan Stanley data cited by CoinDesk put weekly credit-default-swap trading on bonds from Oracle, SpaceX, Alphabet, Amazon, Meta, Broadcom and Nvidia at more than $9bn on average in September, up from under $2bn a week in July.

Biemann said CDS should be read as warning lights rather than countdown clocks, and that protection on the largest AI leaders at 50 to 120 basis points looks more like portfolio insurance than a distress prediction.
