BLOOM ENERGY
đ Hereâs Why Bloom Energyâs Stock Is Soaring

On Tuesday, Bloom Energyâs stock rose 23.98% to $219.03 per share, signaling the fuel-cell makerâs growing role in supplying AI data centers with on-site power.
Key details:
Last Thursday, Oracle was issued a fully vested warrant to purchase up to 3.53 million shares of Bloom Energyâs stock at $113.28 per share for a total investment of $400 million.
It was issued in connection with Oracleâs original multi-year power agreement with Bloom Energy, under which Oracle initially planned to procure up to 1.6 GW of Bloom Energyâs fuel-cell capacity to power AI data center buildouts.
Key takeaways:
Bloom Energyâs secret sauce lies within its proprietary solid oxide technology. Originally built to help NASA explore life on Mars, these solid oxide fuel cells generate electricity through an electrochemical reaction between fuel and oxygen, without needing âcombustionâ: the traditional process of burning fuel to create heat, which is converted into mechanical energy to generate electricity.
Usually, a machine is picky about its fuel. For example, a diesel car canât run on gas fuel. Bloom Energyâs proprietary solid oxide technology is âfuel-flexible,â running on ânatural gas, biogas, hydrogen, or blends of these fuels.â
AI RESEARCH

Stanford HAI recently released âThe 2026 AI Index Report,â which provides unbiased, rigorously vetted, and globally sourced data on the latest trends in AI.
Key details:
Thereâs more and more money flowing into AI. For context, global corporate AI investments reached $581.7 billion in 2025, up 130% from the prior year. Meanwhile, regional private investments reached $344.7 billion in 2025, up 128% from the prior year. The U.S. leads all other countries in âdoling out AI dollars,â investing $285.9 billion, or 23.1x more money, than the next leading country.
Weâre experiencing an entry-level job role squeeze. For example, when analyzing âobserved exposure,â which measures how frequently different industries across the U.S. economy are actually employing AI to automate, not assist with, economically valuable tasks, computer programmers have the worst observed exposure at 74.5%. More specifically, employment among software developers aged 22 to 25 has plummeted nearly 20% since 2024.
The frontier AI firms have a favorite buzzword: âPh.D.-Level.â For example, OpenAI introduced âDeep Research,â which analyzes and synthesizes content from across the internet into comprehensive summaries just like a âPh.D.-level research analyst.â
Key takeaways:
AI adoption is spreading at a historical speed. GenAI reached 53% population penetration within three years, scaling faster than the internet and PC revolution. Itâs important to note that thereâs a strong positive correlation between GDP Per Capita and AI adoption, meaning those in wealthier countries have heard a lot about AI. For example, the GDP Per Capita in the U.S. is $86,000, and 47% of Americans have heard a lot about AI.
These entry-level job roles were traditionally the on-ramp to successful corporate careers in law, finance, and marketing. But AI can now perform legal research and analyze market dynamics more accurately, more efficiently, and more cheaply than a recent college graduate. Since late 2022, there has been a 14% decrease in âjob-finding ratesâ for U.S. workers aged 22 to 25.
