AI Corporate Bond Issuance
The Kobeissi Letter's stacked bar chart drew 148.2K views on X: 0.6x its typical post and #113 of 131 The Kobeissi Letter charts we track by views. Read Oct 23, 2026.
AI-related borrowing is skyrocketing.
Why it spread
It spread because it paired a hot topic that week with a big source, and the measured numbers back that up: 132,938 views, 689 likes, 134 reposts, 19 quotes and 116 saves, with a quote rate above average and source reach in the top quarter.
What worked
- The post leads with a plain claim about AI-related borrowing skyrocketing, then supports it with a record annual figure of $419 billion.
- The growth is framed in two comparisons, a +90% year over year rise from full-year 2025 and a +437% rise from full-year 2024, which makes the trend easy to grasp at a glance.
- The stacked-bar chart, branded with a visible source line, shows the growth over years and gives the post a credible, shareable visual.
What to borrow
We could use the same framing with our own data by leading with one clear claim, backing it with a single headline figure, and adding two simple comparisons that show the change over time, all in a branded chart with a source line.
Careful
Do not copy the specific figures or treat the spread as proof the chart design alone drove it, since the hot topic and the big source are named as the main reasons and the design polish and self-labelling are only medium.
