United States companies issued $34B in convertible bonds through April 2026, more than doubling the volume from the same period last year. Artificial intelligence firms account for roughly 50% of this issuance to fund data centers and power infrastructure. Investors gain exposure to high-growth tech while issuers secure cheaper capital than traditional debt in a high-rate environment.
