I continue to assign a "Buy" rating to VNET Group after assessing recent disclosures from the company and its client. VNET has secured a new win in Q3 2025, after suffering from an "order drought" in the preceding Q2. Alibaba is ramping up its cloud-related investments for the medium and long term, which should boost VNET's future results.

VNET Group is poised for strong growth, driven by accelerating AI-related demand and robust order momentum from hyperscaler clients. Nearly all new wholesale orders for VNET are AI-focused, highlighting its expertise in high-density deployments and strong relationships with major tech players. Favorable market dynamics, disciplined capital recycling via REIT monetization, and solid execution de-risk VNET's growth outlook and support margin stability.

VNET Group (VNET) witnessed a jump in share price last session on above-average trading volume. The latest trend in earnings estimate revisions for the stock doesn't suggest further strength down the road.
