Excuse you, if it doesn't come from the gambling region of France, it's called sparkling debt.

Ah, the bouquet of sparkling debt—a true delight for the discerning gambler. With bubbles of inflated valuations and a nose of speculative frenzy, it offers thrilling notes of fleeting euphoria and a bold finish that can leave you exhilarated or bankrupt. Remember, only the finest bubbles from structured finance deserve the name. Enjoy responsibly!
