AI Infrastructure Debt Looks Attractive Before Overinvestment Risk Builds
GoldenTree Asset Management founder and CIO Steven Tananbaum told Bloomberg’s Lisa Abramowicz that credit remains a difficult market: coupons are attractive and defaults are contained, but broad returns are likely to stay muted because valuations already assume a benign economy. He argued that opportunity is concentrated in narrow, situational parts of the market, including stressed software, telecom and cable capital structures, selected healthcare, private asset-backed credit and oil-related exposures. On AI infrastructure financing, Tananbaum said near-term credit risk may be well paid, but the scale of issuance has turned the sector into an arms race whose long-term returns are still uncertain.
