Bloom Energy stock jumps 14% to start 2026 as Wells Fargo credit line stays in focus

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 10:33 ET — Market closed

  • Bloom Energy (BE) closed up 13.6% on Friday at $98.69; late Friday trade was around $99.60. Investing.com India
  • Traders kept pointing to a late-December SEC filing detailing a $600 million revolving credit facility led by Wells Fargo. SEC
  • Focus now shifts to next week’s U.S. jobs report (Jan. 9) and CPI (Jan. 13), plus Bloom’s next earnings update tracked by market calendars around Feb. 26. Bureau of Labor Statistics

Bloom Energy Corp shares jumped 13.6% in the last regular session on Friday to close at $98.69, putting the fuel-cell maker among the day’s stronger clean-energy performers. Investing.com India

The move matters at the start of 2026 because investors have been quick to reprice rate-sensitive, high-volatility names on shifts in the outlook for U.S. growth and interest rates. Reuters

Bloom also has a liquidity headline still in play: in a late-December SEC filing, the company disclosed a $600 million senior secured revolving credit facility led by Wells Fargo. A revolving credit facility is a corporate credit line that can be drawn, repaid and re-borrowed. SEC

Fuel-cell peers moved higher alongside Bloom on Friday. Plug Power gained 12.7%, FuelCell Energy rose 11.7% and Ballard Power added 5.5%, while the Dow ended up 0.66% and the Nasdaq slipped 0.03%, MarketWatch data showed. MarketWatch

The SEC filing said the Wells Fargo facility matures in December 2030 and can be used for working capital, capital spending and permitted acquisitions. SEC

“Senior secured” means lenders have a priority claim on collateral if a borrower defaults. The filing said the facility is backed by substantially all of Bloom’s assets, excluding its intellectual property, and includes leverage and interest-coverage covenants. SEC

Bloom traded between $89.22 and $99.06 on Friday, with about 11.6 million shares changing hands, and was quoted around $99.60 in late Friday trade. Investing.com India

Bloom makes solid-oxide fuel cell systems that generate electricity on site and sells an electrolyzer product for producing hydrogen, according to its Reuters company profile. Reuters

With the market shut on Saturday, attention turns to the next catalysts. Benzinga pegged Bloom’s next earnings report around Feb. 26 and said market expectations call for quarterly earnings per share of 24 cents on revenue of about $644 million. Benzinga

Before the next session, traders will also be tracking fresh signals on the rate path. Philadelphia Fed President Anna Paulson said further rate cuts “could be some way off” as officials assess the economy, adding she views the current funds rate as “still a little restrictive.” Reuters

The next scheduled macro tests are the U.S. employment report on Jan. 9 and the consumer price index on Jan. 13, both key inputs for rate expectations. Bureau of Labor Statistics

Technically, $100 is an immediate psychological level, while Benzinga pointed to support near $88. A break above Friday’s high could extend momentum bids; a slide back into the low-$90s would put the rebound under pressure. Benzinga
