Topping our list of the Most Profitable American Stocks is NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA). A pioneer in accelerated computing, NVIDIA is a full-stack computing company with data-center-scale offerings that are reshaping the industry.

NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) announced on June 15 that it is looking to raise $25 billion through a US bond issuance, marking the tech giant’s return to the corporate bond market for the first time in five years.

The company will offer the debt in seven tranches, with maturities ranging from 2028 to 2056 and yields ranging from 4.25% for the 2028 note to 5.625% for the 2056 note. NVIDIA plans to use the proceeds for corporate general purposes, including the repayment and refinancing of outstanding notes.

NVIDIA’s last debt raise happened in 2021, when it brought in $5 billion, with notes maturing as late as 2031. The chipmaker has around  $7.5 billion in long-term debt and another $1 billion in short-term debt.

NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) is the latest AI-related tech company to tap the capital markets. Earlier this month, Alphabet revealed plans to raise $85 billion in equity-related offerings, while Super Micro also recently announced $7 billion in equity-related financing deals to help to cover the cost of hardware component purchases. Moreover, Oracle also intends to raise $40 billion through debt and equity financing, including a $20 billion share sale announced earlier.
