Résumé détaillé

Bloom Energy shares jumped 13% after strong CoreWeave results eased concerns over AI infrastructure spending. But with the stock well below its record high, can the rally last?

The rally follows CoreWeave's third-quarter results, which show revenue of $3.66 billion, up 168% year on year.
