Hewlett Packard Enterprise just reported its biggest earnings beat since 2018, sending the stock soaring 30% as its AI-focused networking business more than doubled in size.

## Idea

When a major tech company surprises the market this much, it often kicks off a multi-day rally as investors rush to get in. HPE's networking division grew a staggering 148%, proving there is massive demand for the infrastructure behind artificial intelligence. This explosive growth will likely attract more buyers over the coming days as Wall Street analysts raise their price targets for the stock.
