Goldman Sachs Executive Favors AI Infrastructure Over Treasury Yields

Anshul Sehgal, the global co-head of fixed income, currencies, and commodities at Goldman Sachs, stated that AI infrastructure presents a better investment opportunity than long-term Treasury yields. Speaking on the bank's "The Markets" podcast, Sehgal noted that while Treasury yields have reached 20-year highs following Federal Reserve interest rate hikes, AI investments in data centers and neocloud providers possess the potential for multiplicative growth.

Sehgal argued that higher interest rates have actually aided the AI boom by increasing the amount of capital available from savers to fund necessary infrastructure. He contrasted this with bond yields, which he believes may only experience modest declines.

Addressing broader economic concerns, Sehgal dismissed the idea that U.S. fiscal deficits are unsustainable. He asserted that the debt-to-GDP ratio has remained limited because nominal GDP growth has generally kept pace with annual deficits.
