Broadcom (AVGO) recently has been working to arrange over $50B in financing for OpenAI's custom AI semiconductor, which the firms are developing together, the Wall Street Journal's Anissa Gardizy, Matt Wirz, and Justin Baer report, citing people familiar with the discussions. Apollo (APO) and Blackstone (BX) are among the lenders Broadcom has spoken to about participating in the financing, though talks are early and the size of the deal could change, the authors say. Separately, Oracle (ORCL) is in discussions with Apollo and Goldman Sachs (GS) to arrange money for a major purchase of chips, while SpaceX (SPCX) has spoken with lenders recently over a $40B chip financing for Nvidia (NVDA) chips, the authors note.
