Data center bonds are shaping up to be 2026's heavyweight issuance, yet institutional appetite tells a different story. According to JPMorgan's latest survey, nearly half of CMBS investors—46% to be exact—are either cutting back or holding steady with their current allocations. Only 16% are actually stepping up to increase exposure. The disconnect is striking: while issuance volumes suggest strong supply hitting the market, investor sentiment lags considerably behind. This divergence raises questions about pricing, fundamentals, and whether the debt market is properly digesting the infrastructure boom in data centers.

Supply is skyrocketing but the bagholders are not buying it—this feeling is familiar to me.

The issuance of data center bonds has skyrocketed, but institutional investors are reducing their positions? This isn't a buy signal, it's a run for the hills.

A large issuance but no one really wants to buy, isn't this a classic case of superficial prosperity... 46% are reducing their positions, yet they still have the nerve to talk about infrastructure boom

The issuance volume doesn't match the actual demand, and this thing is really interesting... 46% of investors are still on the sidelines, yet bonds are still being dumped, so the pricing will definitely suffer.
