Dell just reported explosive demand for AI servers and its stock surged 30%. That breakout also lifted partner Palantir 10%, and software stocks broadly are wrapping up their best month in 25 years.

## Idea

Dell's blowout quarter proves companies are spending heavily on AI infrastructure right now, not just talking about it. Palantir, which builds AI software platforms and runs an 'AI Factory' partnership with Dell, jumped 10% on the news as investors connected the dots. Software stocks more broadly are having their best month since 2001, meaning the sector-wide fear about AI disrupting software companies has faded. When a market leader confirms a trend this loudly, partners and sector peers tend to keep running.
