6. Vertiv Holdings Co (NYSE:VRT)

Short Percentage of Float: 3.55%

Vertiv Holdings Co (NYSE:VRT) is one of the best grid modernization stocks to buy for AI infrastructure.

On April 27, Vertiv Holdings Co (NYSE:VRT) announced the acquisition of Strategic Thermal Labs LLC, adding cold-plate design, server-side liquid cooling, and high-density thermal validation expertise to its AI infrastructure portfolio. Vertiv said the deal is meant to strengthen its ability to simulate real high-density compute conditions, optimize the interaction between the thermal chain and power train, and support customers across design, integration, commissioning, and lifecycle operations.

That is relevant to grid modernization because AI data centers are forcing electrical infrastructure to work harder from the utility connection point down to the rack. Vertiv is not a utility grid builder like Quanta or a transformer supplier like GE Vernova, but it sits inside the “grid-to-chip” power chain, where higher rack densities require integrated power, cooling, controls, and service systems. The pressure is evident across the broader power market: Reuters reported on May 11 that U.S. transformer demand has surged since 2019, with lead times for large units stretching up to four years. For AI infrastructure investors, Vertiv Holdings Co (NYSE:VRT) is a load-side beneficiary of the same power bottleneck.

Vertiv Holdings Co (NYSE:VRT) provides critical digital infrastructure products and services, including power management systems, thermal management, liquid cooling, racks, modular infrastructure, monitoring software, and lifecycle services for data centers, communication networks, and commercial and industrial facilities.

While we acknowledge the potential of VRT to grow, our conviction lies in the belief that some other AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and have limited downside risk. If you are looking for an AI stock that is more promising than VRT and that has 100x upside potential, check out our report about the cheapest AI stock.
