  • Akamai Technologies Shares Soar Nearly 60% on $1.8 Billion AI Server Deal
    May 13, 2026, 1:08 PM EDT. Akamai Technologies' stock surged almost 60% in two weeks after signing a $1.8 billion contract to supply servers to a major AI firm, reportedly Anthropic. The Cambridge-based company's share price hit $160 on Wednesday, levels not seen since 2000. CEO Tom Leighton highlighted this as Akamai's largest customer deal ever, signaling confidence in AI-driven growth. However, initial revenue contributions will be modest, with significant upfront investment needed to scale cloud capacity. Some analysts remain cautious, noting the slow ramp-up and competitive AI infrastructure landscape dominated by giants like Amazon and Google.
