Meta taps PIMCO, Blue Owl for US$29 billion data centre expansion project, source says
Meta's logo is seen on a sign at the company's headquarters in Menlo Park, Calif. (AP Photo/Godofredo A. Vásquez, File) Meta has tapped U.S. bond giant PIMCO and alternative asset manager Blue Owl Capital to spearhead a US$29 billion financing for its data center expansion in rural Louisiana, a person familiar with the matter told Reuters. PIMCO will handle about $26 billion of debt, likely to be issued in the form of bonds, while Blue Owl will contribute $3 billion in equity, the person said, speaking on condition of anonymity. Bloomberg News, which first reported the deal, said that the company has been working with Morgan Stanley to raise funds, while Apollo Global Management and KKR were also in the running to lead the deal until the closing stage of negotiations. Meta, PIMCO and Blue Owl declined to comment on the report. The deal comes as Meta looks for partners to help fund its AI infrastructure push. Last week, the company said in a filing that it planned to offload about $2 billion in data center assets as part of a co-development strategy to share the costs of building facilities for generative AI. In July, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said that the company would spend hundreds of billions of dollars to build several massive AI data centers for its superintelligence unit, intensifying his pursuit of a technology he has chased with a talent war for top engineers. Its first multi-gigawatt data center, dubbed Prometheus, is expected to come online in 2026, while another, called Hyperion, will be able to scale up to 5 GW over the coming years, Zuckerberg said in a post last month on his Threads social media platform. In June, the Financial Times reported that Meta was seeking to raise $29 billion from private capital firms to build AI data centers in the U.S., adding that the company is debating how to structure the debt raise and is also evaluating options to raise more capital.

World food prices at 2-year high on rising meat and edible oils, FAO says
Cuts of beef are seen at a supermarket in Montreal. (Ryan Remiorz/The Canadian Press) World food commodity prices rose in July to their highest in over two years, as a jump for vegetable oils and record levels for meat outweighed falling cereal, dairy and sugar prices, the United Nations' Food and Agriculture Organization said. The FAO Food Price Index, which serves as a global benchmark for food commodity prices, averaged 130.1 points in July, a 1.6 per cent increase from June, FAO said. That was the highest reading since February 2023, though the index was 18.8 per cent below its peak of March 2022, which followed Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine. FAO's meat price index hit a new all-time high of 127.3 points, up 1.2 per cent from its previous peak in June, as strong import demand from China and the United States boosted beef and sheep meat prices, the agency said. U.S. beef imports have climbed after drought led to a decline in the domestic cattle herd. China shipped in record amounts of beef last year amid growing popularity of the meat, though an official probe into imported beef has raised uncertainty about Chinese demand. In other meat markets, poultry prices rose slightly following the resumption of imports of Brazilian chicken by major buyers after Brazil regained its avian influenza-free status following action against a first farm-level outbreak. In contrast, pig meat prices declined due to sufficient supplies and lower demand, particularly in the European Union, FAO added. The agency's vegetable oil index surged to 166.8 points, up 7.1 per cent month-on-month and the highest level in three years. This increase was driven by higher quotations for palm, soy, and sunflower oils due to robust global demand and tightening supplies, though rapeseed oil prices fell as new-crop supplies arrived in Europe, FAO said. FAO's cereal price benchmark eased to its lowest in almost five years, reflecting seasonal supply pressure from wheat harvests in the Northern Hemisphere. Its separate rice index dropped 1.8 per cent last month, driven by ample export supplies and weak import demand. Dairy prices edged down for the first time since April 2024, with declines for butter and milk powders offsetting further gains for cheese. FAO's sugar price index eased for a fifth consecutive month on expectations of increased production in Brazil and India, despite indications of recovering global sugar import demand, the agency said. SOF/L FAO did not update its cereal supply and demand estimates this month. (Reporting by Gus Trompiz. Editing by Alex Richardson and Mark Potter)
