Industrial property firm Goodman Group is converting its traditional warehouses into data centers to meet the surging demand for artificial intelligence infrastructure. Citi believes this trend will likely drive "double-digit medium-term earnings growth" and has added the Australian stock to its "Pan-Asia Focus list." Data centers are large buildings that house critical computing infrastructure and equipment. "As it progresses opportunities in data centers, it is likely to deliver a large range of products from powered sites and turnkey projects." Electricity has been a key bottleneck preventing many data centers from further expansion.
