DigitalBridge Group Inc. (NYSE:DBRG) ranks as one of the worst-performing data center stocks in 2025, despite managing over $96 billion in assets and being a top 3 global data center provider with 200+ data centers. YTD gains of only 4.6% lag the broader market.

CEO Marc Ganzi shared at the Goldman Sachs Communacopia + Technology Conference that DigitalBridge is focusing on AI inferencing growth, expanding data centers, and meeting power demands. The company plans to invest in grid-independent power solutions to support the expected tripling of data center industry power needs from 68 to 196 gigawatts.

With a $50 billion capital expenditure plan, DigitalBridge aims to enhance fee-related earnings and co-investment margins in digital infrastructure assets like data centers, fiber networks, cell towers, and edge assets. While DBRG holds investment potential, other AI stocks may offer greater upside potential and less downside risk.
