What stands out

Tuesday's tape offered a neat contrast: Dell surged after raising its fiscal sales outlook by $25 billion on artificial intelligence (AI)-server demand, while Eos Energy scored a Google-backed storage win. In the middle sat Palo Alto Networks, whose recurring revenue beat Wall Street models but still slid as much as 9.5% because investors expected more. That reaction matters: markets are rewarding clear, monetizable AI top-line expansions and are quick to punish any security stock that fails to outpace sky-high growth expectations.
