Briefly

"Oracle's $16.3 billion data center financing closed this week, the largest single-facility technology debt package ever assembled, requiring a bond fund to anchor it due to US banks' reluctance."
"PIMCO purchased approximately $10 billion of the roughly $14 billion bond tranche, with the remainder including about $2 billion in equity from Related Digital Infrastructure and Blackstone."
"The bonds carry a 7.5% coupon with a 19.5-year maturity, structured with six years of interest-only payments followed by 13 years of amortization, reflecting the project's finance nature."
