Why TeraWulf Stock Is Skyrocketing Today
Key Points TeraWulf inked a multiyear, multibillion-dollar agreement to provide up to 200 megawatts of compute power to an AI cloud provider. The deal will be backed by Google in exchange for a potential 8% stake in TeraWulf. 10 stocks we like better than TeraWulf › Shares of TeraWulf (NASDAQ: WULF) are flying on Thursday, up 44.1% as of 1:09 p.m. ET. The jump comes as the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite were down slightly. TeraWulf, a Bitcoin miner and high-performance computing (HPC) data center company, announced it inked a 10-year, $3.7 billion deal backed by Alphabet's Google. TeraWulf signs a massive deal for AI data center space Along with releasing its second-quarter earnings, TeraWulf announced a major co-location deal with Fluidstack, an artificial intelligence (AI) cloud provider that will see the company provide 200 megawatts of compute power at its data center in New York. The 10-year, $3.7 billion deal has the option to be extended twice for up to a total of $8.7 billion. Google will guarantee up to $1.8 billion if Fluidstack fails to make good on its lease obligations. In exchange, Google will be awarded warrants for 41 million shares of TeraWulf, about an 8% stake. The guarantee will allow TeraWulf to access the financing it needs to provide the 200 megawatts of compute power. TeraWulf stock is hot, but investors should exercise caution This is the latest major data center deal as big tech races to build enough capacity to meet current and projected future demands. It's hard to overstate just the scale of the efforts. Google, Amazon, Microsoft, and Meta Platforms alone are expected to spend roughly $400 billion next year and are on track to spend more than $350 billion this year. That's not total capital expenditures (capex), that is specifically data center capex. While this presents an enormous opportunity for data center providers, it also presents an enormous risk. I believe that the big tech companies are very purposefully making deals such as this one to offload the risk onto third parties. TeraWulf and other infrastructure companies like it are taking on enormous amounts of debt at very high interest rates. If there is an overbuild or AI demand sags, TeraWulf could find itself in a pretty precarious position. Should you invest $1,000 in TeraWulf right now?

Apple Supplier Foxconn Doubles Down On AI: Server Sales Now 41% Of Revenue
Aug 14 - Foxconn (FXCOF) Hon Hai Precision Industry (the world's largest iPhone maker) leans into AI with a blockbuster quarter and an ambitious expansion plan. The company posted NT$1.79 trillion ($59.7B) in revenue for Q2 and net income of NT$44.36 billion, beating SmartEstimates. More important: server products for AI workloads now drive the business, accounting for 41% of sales versus 35% from consumer electronics. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 8 Warning Signs with FXCOF. Foxconn expects AI-server revenue to surge more than 170% year-over-year this quarter as demand for Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA)-powered infrastructure climbs. Management also reported operating profit of NT$56.6 billion, above forecasts, and flagged further growth as it expands data-center work and takes a stake in TECO to support industrial-scale AI builds. Geopolitics complicate the picture: trade tensions and tariff threats pushed Foxconn to move much iPhone final assembly to India and spur a $1 billion North America investment plan from a subsidiary to blunt U.S. tariff risk. Still, Foxconn shows pivoting power, it shifts from phone assembly toward AI servers, EV assembly and semiconductor bets, aiming to turn hardware muscle into long-term cloud and AI revenue.

Wedbush: Nvidia, AMD China AI Deal a 'Bullish Catalyst' for Big Tech
Aug 14 - Wedbush is calling it a bullish sign for the AI sector. Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) and Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD) are reportedly getting the green light to sell AI chips in China, provided they hand over 15% of profits to the U.S. government. According to sources, Nvidia will share revenue from its H20 AI accelerator, while AMD will do the same with its MI308 chips. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 5 Warning Signs with NVDA. Analyst Daniel Ives said this unusual arrangement removes a key growth barrier for the AI industry, with potential ripple effects for U.S. Big Tech leaders like Microsoft (MSFT), Palantir Technologies (PLTR), Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL), Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META), and Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN). Ives noted that keeping the blockade on Nvidia's H20 would have been a gift to Huawei, potentially worth $15 billion annually, and a blow to U.S. competitiveness. He emphasized the U.S. now holds the edge in AI, a first in three decades but warned China's tech giants, including Alibaba (NYSE:BABA), Baidu (BIDU), Tencent (TCEHY), and Xiaomi (XIACF), are ramping up fast. The Middle East's AI push is another battleground, with Saudi Arabia and the UAE looking to U.S. firms for infrastructure and expertise. Wedbush sees the 15% fee as a small price for massive market access. This article first appeared on GuruFocus.
