The gainers include everyone from Caterpillar and Hochtief to steel producer Nucor and power-management company Eaton.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>\u201c[A]nything that can spin an engine is going to end up in a data center<\/strong>,\u201d Dell\u2019Oro\u2019s Alex Cordovil said. Investors are increasingly wagering on the infrastructure behind AI \u2014 companies supplying the power, cooling, wiring, and equipment \u2014 rather than the companies building the models themselves.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>This comes as spending on data center infrastructure is hitting record levels: <\/strong>Alphabet, Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, and Oracle are projected to spend a combined USD 700 bn on AI infrastructure this year alone, helping push US data-center construction spending to a record USD 50 bn this past April. Global data-center capacity is expected to double by 2030.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The biggest winners aren\u2019t always obvious: <\/strong>Corning \u2014 the 175-year-old company behind Pyrex glass \u2014 has seen its shares rise more than 270% after signing optical-fiber agreements with Meta and Nvidia. Eaton reported data-center orders were up 240% in 1Q, while gas turbines once considered obsolete now carry backlogs of up to seven years as AI companies scramble for power.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Gulf investors are also putting their money into these enterprises: <\/strong>The Abu Dhabi Investment Authority (Adia) has <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/uae\/2026\/06\/05\/this-morning-adia-cashes-in-on-innio-usd-2-4-bn-ipo-irh-passes-up-zambia-export-duty-waiver-for-unprocessed-copper\/\" style=\"\">recently capitalized<\/a> on the USD 2.4 bn IPO of German gas-engine maker Innio, whose equipment helps power AI-era data centers. The stock jumped 23% on its Nasdaq debut, underscoring investor appetite for the infrastructure underpinning the AI boom.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>The catch: <\/strong>Bain estimates the tech industry would need to generate USD 2 tn in annual AI revenue to justify the spending trends we\u2019re currently seeing. The OECD has also warned of a potential repricing of AI assets if geopolitical tensions keep energy prices elevated. For now, though, investors seem happy backing the businesses building the AI boom.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tag-border-left\">MARKETS THIS MORNING- <\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Asia-Pacific m<\/strong><strong>arkets fell in early trading this morning <\/strong>as flaring geopolitical tensions and Wall Street's tech selloff rattle investors.
