Nvidia’s First Bond Offering In Five Years

According to a Bloomberg report on Monday, Nvidia was looking to raise $20 billion through a multi-tranche debt offering. According to the report, the chipmaker is marketing investment-grade bonds with maturities ranging from two to 30 years. The proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes, including refinancing and repaying existing debt.

If completed as planned, it would be significantly larger than Nvidia’s last bond sale in June 2021, when the company raised $5 billion through four tranches of senior unsecured notes.

In a post on X, Jim Cramer questioned whether Nvidia’s bond sale meant that, like Apple, it would use the bond sale to buy back its own stock.

Big Tech Looks To Bond Markets

In May, Alphabet (GOOG, GOOGL) raised nearly $17 billion through euro- and Canadian-dollar bond offerings, including a record C$8.5 billion ($6.1 billion) investment-grade corporate bond sale in Canada.

Amazon (AMZN) has followed a similar strategy, raising C$14 billion earlier this month. The company has borrowed more than $82 billion since the start of 2025 as it ramps up spending on data centers, AI chips, and cloud infrastructure.
