In short: Mission-critical global interconnection platform with an Nvidia relationship (Jensen Huang keynoted its early-September investor day); revenue and earnings up on cloud/network/AI demand. But power, capital intensity, customer concentration and above all a premium valuation — "the biggest drawback right now … these guys have just been on a tear."
Equinix runs data centers where networks and cloud providers physically connect — essential plumbing for the internet and AI, with a relationship with Nvidia. Revenue and earnings are growing. Auerbach's main problem is price: the stock has "been on a tear," and data centers need lots of power and capital. Good business, but valuation is "the biggest drawback right now."

So they have this relationship in place with Nvidia missionritical global internet connection platform very powerful network revenues were up earnings were up it's supported by cloud network AI demand obviously things to be concerned about power that's the one thing we concern for every data center reach where's the power coming from premium valuation again because of that sector being so hot the intense capital nature of data centers can they execute on development, concentration
In short: ROS short candidate — "#9 on the list by market cap," a datacenter REIT paying a 2% dividend sitting on its 200dma. "Don't get me started on why this space is likely to be a disaster in the next few years."
Equinix is a datacenter landlord (a REIT — a property company that pays out rent as dividends). It showed up high on Paulo's list of names rolling over on their 200-day trend. He's broadly bearish on datacenters — he thinks the current building boom will prove to be "a disaster in the next few years" (too much capacity chasing AI demand that may disappoint) — so a datacenter REIT stalling technically is exactly the kind of name he'd look to short as the story sours.
