Verdict: Hold, with high caution. Growth is real, but the price already discounts a perfect scenario; any sign of a slowdown in AI spending could trigger a sharp correction.
Main risk: The main risk is the extreme valuation (P/E 178.74) that leaves no room for error: if AI demand growth moderates or rates keep rising, the multiple could compress drastically.
