What happened
IFR says the CoreWeave rout froze data center financing, after Firmus, SB Energy and AirTrunk shelved IPOs in the month to Oct 16. Search snippets add a $6B Bridge Data Centres loan for Thailand put on hold Oct 13 because of a national construction pause (unverified). Some deals still clear, like Nebius's $3.5B 364-day facility.
What we watch
Bond, loan or IPO deals in AI infrastructure or private credit postponed or pulled. More than one in a week, or reports that financing has frozen, is flashing.
