Blackstone arranges $36B for AI chips, faces PE valuation hit

Watch: The closing of the $36 billion Anthropic funding deal and progress in Blackstone's data center REIT will reveal growth traction and portfolio diversification success.

Blackstone's private equity portfolio showed mixed results in Q1 2026, with a 3.2% gain overall but material declines in software valuations dragging performance. Blackstone led a $36 billion financing deal for Anthropic's AI chip development, signaling strong AI sector investment. CoreWeave, a Blackstone-backed firm, has high leverage with $2 billion debt service obligations, but Blackstone waived technical defaults from 2025. Blackstone also holds a $160B data center pipeline and plans a REIT for hyperscaler leases.

Blackstone's pivot into AI infrastructure and chip financing counters headwinds from software asset multiple compression, spotlighting its strategic bet on AI's growth amid private equity sector pressures.
