Ditch Digital Realty For Equinix

Equinix (EQIX) offers superior AFFO/share growth, operational strategy, and valuation versus Digital Realty (DLR), making it the preferred data center REIT investment. EQIX's cross-connect ecosystem drives positive same-store NOI and tenant stickiness, outpacing DLR's commodity-focused approach and mitigating renewal rent pressure. Recent multiple compression—EQIX now trades at 18.4x forward AFFO and 86% of NAV—creates a rare value opportunity despite continued robust growth.
