Alphabet Plans $15 Billion U.S. Bond Sale Including Possible Century-Long Maturity

Alphabet, Google's parent company, plans to raise about $15 billion through a U.S. high-grade corporate bond sale, potentially including a century-long maturity. This move aligns with technology firms' trend of issuing long-term debt to fund AI infrastructure and cloud computing expansions. The offering, spanning multiple maturities, has drawn attention for its length, reminiscent of Motorola's 1997 century bond. Market demand for high-grade tech debt remains strong despite higher interest rates, reflecting strategic capital management amid growing AI investments.
