In a move reflecting the surging demand for sustainable power to fuel AI data centers, specialized energy and tech infrastructure stocks saw significant gains.

The partnership includes a strategic option to add another 600 megawatts by 2030, potentially bringing the total supply to nearly one gigawatt.

This alliance comes as Big Tech firms race to secure stable energy sources, with market data showing mixed performance among Alphabet's peers. According to market data, Microsoft (MSFT) closed at $335.46, while Meta (META) stood at $335.46 and Apple (AAPL) at $325.13 during the September 1, 2026 session.

Traders are monitoring the sustainability of this momentum in the absence of immediate major economic catalysts, focusing on energy inventory reports and tech sector developments following US economic data from August 26 which showed GDP growth at 1.5% for the quarter.
