Dell (NYSE:DELL) faces $7.7B Texas test after recent drop

Dell (NYSE:DELL) outlook: Trump buzz fades, focus shifts to AI servers, SEC updates

Dell Technologies traded with mixed signals Wednesday—moving like both an AI hardware play with solid order flow and a stock hit by fresh governance concerns. In early U.S. trade, Dell was off 0.03% at $417.15 as of 10:49 a.m. EDT. The stock opened at $425.00, hit a high of $448.89 and dipped to $402.50. HP added 1.2%, Super Micro Computer rose 1.8%, while Nvidia edged down 0.4% in the same stretch.

Alphabet slides premarket as Google AI costs meet cloud headwinds

Alphabet Inc. Class A comes into July 8 with more of a funding angle than a typical Google headline. Shares are down a bit in early trading, but the bigger question is whether Wall Street wants to keep backing Google’s AI spending as a high-return story, or if it starts treating it more like a cycle weighed down by dilution and debt. Nasdaq is closed for July 3 for Independence Day, with trading back to normal on Wednesday.

  • Plug Power (PLUG) Sinks 15.5% as Questions Swirl on 50 MW Australia Deal
    July 12, 2026, 1:12 PM EDT. Plug Power shares tumbled 15.53% after the company announced a 50-megawatt electrolyzer order from Australia but didn't spell out the financial details or timing. The lack of contract value and delivery window knocked about $570 million off Plug's market cap, with the stock closing at $2.23 for a total value near $3.1 billion. The order makes up a sixth of Plug's total electrolyzer capacity. Traders bailed from peer names too as FuelCell Energy and Ballard Power fell, while the Nasdaq Composite rose 1.7%. Susquehanna slashed its Plug price target to $2.50 and kept a Neutral rating, Morgan Stanley stuck with Underweight but bumped its target up to $1.65. Plug is still burning cash, even with 22% sales growth and improving margins, showing a $245 million loss last quarter and $223 million cash on hand.
