After a turbulent stretch for the US bond market, traders are heading into the weekend with questions about what Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s next move will be.

Bloomberg Intelligence's Ira Jersey and Alpine Saxon Woods' Sarah Hunt break down the weeks' moves, and the impact of Bessent's intervention.

On today's episode:
Ira Jersey, Bloomberg Intelligence Chief US Interest Rate Strategist & Sarah Hunt Alpine Saxon Woods Chief Market Strategist
Ava Benny-Morrison, Bloomberg News Senior Legal Reporter

Broadcom is in talks with a group of lenders to raise more than $60 billion in debt for an AI chip financing deal that will benefit Anthropic and other companies, according to people with knowledge of the matter. The financing, which is still being ironed out, may also include a roughly $30 billion junior debt tranche, said some of the people, who asked not to be identified because the information is private. Under the proposed plan, Broadcom would guarantee a portion of the senior-secured tranche, which could range from about $60 billion to $70 billion, some of the people said. The numbers under discussion would potentially bring the total to as much as $100 billion.

On today's episode, Carol Massar and guest host Emily Graffeo speak with:
Ryan Gould, Bloomberg News US Deals reporter
Robin Wenzel, Wells Fargo Industry Insights Head
Laura Bliss, Bloomberg Businessweek Senior Editor
AJ Nicholas, Maisonette President
