On October 25, 2026, CITIC Securities released a research report titled "Signals Revealed by CDS Spreads Amid the AI Financing Boom." The report notes that continued increases in AI capital expenditure, elevated financing costs, and changes in the macro environment in the third quarter have together driven up both trading volume and spreads in the CDS market for AI technology companies. The report also concludes that this has not yet evolved into a broad, industry-wide rise in credit risk, and that CDS spreads for major AI-related companies show tiered differentiation. According to the report, with AI infrastructure and bond financing still in an expansion phase, the cross-sectional differentiation and dynamic evolution of CDS spreads may become important indicators for observing the accumulation and transmission of credit risk in this AI capital expenditure cycle. Currently, this research report is the only disclosed development, and there are no subsequent factual developments.

CITIC Securities: Under the AI Financing Boom, What Signal Do CDS Spreads Reveal?
A CITIC Securities research report notes that continued increases in AI capital expenditure, high financing costs, and changes in the macroeconomic environment in the third quarter have driven both trading volume and spreads in the CDS market for AI technology companies higher. At present, this has not yet evolved into a broad industry-wide rise in credit risk, and CDS spreads for major AI-related companies show tiered differentiation. Against the backdrop of AI infrastructure and bond financing still being in an expansion phase, the cross-sectional differentiation and dynamic evolution of CDS spreads may become important indicators for observing the accumulation and transmission of credit risk in this round of the AI capital expenditure cycle.
