  "summary": "The AI infrastructure boom has shifted from solely demand-driven to financing-driven, as highlighted by a JPMorgan note. This shift is supported by estimates of $5.5 trillion in AI data-center capex through 2030, with some estimates reaching $10 trillion. JPMorgan's Asia-Pacific survey indicates that AI spending could rise from 4.5% to 5.8% of enterprise expenses, translating to roughly $1.7 trillion by 2030. However, getting to a $2.5 trillion investment by 2030 would require a 6.5% to 7% increase. The financing issue is further emphasized by the BIS, which notes that AI investment is surging and firms will need to shift from operating cash flow funding to more debt.",
