Credo Technology Group Holding Ltd. (NASDAQ:CRDO) is one of the best performing data center stocks to buy now. On September 18, William Blair analyst Sebastien Naji initiated coverage on Credo with a Buy rating, underscoring the company’s leadership in active electrical cables for AI-driven data centers.

Naji notes that Credo’s vertically integrated strategy, which delivers complete cable solutions instead of individual components, has enabled it to offer cost-effective, power-efficient connectivity, making it a trusted supplier for hyperscalers such as Amazon and Microsoft.

The analyst believes that Credo’s growth trajectory extends beyond its established cable business. The company is building momentum in optics, with ambitions to capture a meaningful portion of the $7 billion inside data center optical market. Additionally, its PCIe Gen 6 retimer solution is expected to enter commercialization soon, adding a new revenue stream.

Demand from AI clusters and hyperscale data centers for faster and more efficient connectivity is rising substantially, and Credo’s proprietary technology helps address key bottlenecks. Naji views this as a basis for the stock’s premium valuation, underpinned by expectations of strong revenue growth in the coming years.
