AI Boom Fuels Warehouse Demand
TL;DR
Luke Petherbridge, CEO of Link Logistics joined Bloomberg Open Interest to explain how the AI boom is creating a second wave of demand far beyond data centers themselves. Cooling equipment, chip manufacturing and infrastructure are filling warehouses across the country, while e-commerce and reshoring add even more pressure to an industrial market where new supply is falling.

Nauti's Take
Demand for warehouse space around cooling and chips is a useful early indicator: it shows where building is actually happening months before it reaches quarterly numbers. The catch is lead times, since servers, cooling and networking gear can stall a project even when the model itself is ready.
For larger setups it pays to check power requirements, hardware availability and regional delivery times first.
