Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 11% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published October 2, 2025
GDS runs large data centers that power AI, and interest in this area is rising fast. A major research firm just repeated its Strong Buy call with a $53 goal, which lifts confidence. The price has been climbing with lots more people buying than usual, but excitement may be ahead of the numbers, so consider buying after small dips. Over the next 3 months, global growth plans and AI demand could keep it moving up if swings are managed.
Primary drivers
- Rising need for AI boosts demand for large, power-hungry data centers
- Respected analyst reiterated Strong Buy this week with a $53 price goal
- Price rising alongside unusually heavy trading activity in recent weeks
- New data center projects planned outside China add room for future growth
