Dell just reported that its AI server revenue grew 757% over last year, sending its stock up 32% in a single day — its best ever. Palantir, which runs a joint AI Factory program with Dell, jumped 10% on the news as investors realized the AI spending boom is very real.

## Idea

Dell's blowout earnings proved that companies are spending enormous sums on AI infrastructure right now — server revenue didn't just grow, it exploded 757%. Palantir is Dell's partner on their AI Factory program, so when Dell's results came in, Palantir immediately rallied 10% as investors connected the dots. Software stocks overall are wrapping up their best month since 2001, with Snowflake and Okta also hitting record highs. When an entire sector is re-rating higher at the same time a specific catalyst like Dell's results validates the spending trend, the momentum tends to carry further. Multiple analysts raised their Dell price targets, and the broader AI-driven rally still has support from strong corporate earnings.
