DigiCo Infrastructure REIT IPO Performance: DigiCo Infrastructure REIT's shares fell 6.8% to A$4.24 after its initial public offering, which raised A$2 billion, marking Australia's largest IPO in six years. The stock had an offer price of A$5.00 and faced a decline amid concerns from investment research firm Morningstar regarding its valuation.
Future Plans and Market Context: DigiCo plans to use part of the IPO proceeds to acquire two large-scale data center sites near Sydney, capitalizing on the growing demand for data centers driven by artificial intelligence services. Meanwhile, shares of asset manager HMC Capital, which holds an 18.2% stake in DigiCo, also experienced significant losses.
