SoftBank's massive 10 billion dollar bond issuance is interpreted as securing ammunition for AI ecosystem expansion, though financing costs at 8.75% to 9.875% mean financial burdens and growth potential coexist. While the US dollar remains strong due to sustained rate hike outlooks, oil prices are showing a downward trend influenced by US-Iran talks, which is expected to increase volatility in related assets.
