Did SoftBank Just Scheme Up a Mega Data Center Plot? 🤖

by

So, word on the street is SoftBank Group Corp is practically eating out of DigitalBridge’s hand, with both parties locked in what seems to be advanced talks that make me nostalgic for my college relationship status. Apparently, the rumors have sent DigitalBridge shares skyrocketing faster than a fad diet on TikTok. 📈

  • Although deeper than a freezer on a hot day, these talks are far from a wedding vow – SoftBank might sweet-talk an acquisition deal at any moment, thus about to incite a frenzy the likes of which you’d expect at a café promoting free Wi-Fi. 🐣
  • DigitalBridge, under the watchful eye of CEO Marc Ganzi, boasts a portfolio that would make even Warren Buffett blush – something on the order of $108 billion. Like a digital infrastructure investment unicorn, the company prances around with digital infrastructure like data centers and edge networks, causing its stock to leap higher than a California king attempting a single bed. 🐴💥
  • According to sources likely vacationing at a desert-island resort, this acquisition would be SoftBank’s grand entrance into the AI land-grab soap opera. This deal comes in hot after the Billionaire-Approved acquisition of Fortress Investment Group, because apparently, being a tech giant is synonymous with hoarding companies the way ancient Egyptians may have hoarded cats. 🏰🦁

On Monday, December 29, 2025 (hop over these years, please), jaw-dropping speculation irrupted across the digital worldspace, courtesy of Bloomberg. Reports claim our friend SoftBank is upping its “invest in all things digital” game by eyeing DigitalBridge, whose business card includes data centers and fiber networks, not to mention the sleek company of Vantage Data Centers and Yondr Group. Though talks are hush-hush, who am I to ignore? My cat is whispering secrets as we speak. 🐾

Of course, as usual, representatives for both companies are playing the role of the silent film star, refusing to comment or at least tip-toe around the possibilities. Meanwhile, their stocks swing like a playground swing, riding the waves of every rumor about a deal. DigitalBridge’s shares have been as stable as my love life in the 90s, violently shaking hands with each whisper of new takeovers. 🎢

Analysts (those lovely people who are paid to predict the unpredictable) are still cozy with DigitalBridge, showering it in “outperform” ratings and price targets refreshed just this week. Premium espresso shot or amateur roulette? You decide. ☕
