Brookfield Bets Big on AI Infrastructure With Nvidia Tie-Up

Brookfield Corporation is positioning itself as a leading AI infrastructure play, launching a Brookfield AI Infrastructure Fund to deploy up to $100 billion in AI assets with seed commitments from Brookfield and Nvidia, and launching Radiant—an Nvidia cloud partner to build AI data centers. With a broad footprint in infrastructure, power, and credit, Brookfield expects strong earnings growth over the next five years. At about $46 a share, it trades at a discount to an estimated value of roughly $68 per share, with a long-term bull case near $130 by 2030, which is why it’s cited as the highest-conviction AI stock to buy now.
