Siemens stock jumps 6% after outlook raise as AI data-centre demand lifts mood
Shares of Siemens surged more than 6% on Thursday, after the German industrial giant boosted its yearly profit forecast, riding on stronger-than-expected demand for AI-fueled data-centre infrastructure. “Demand for data centres had considerably exceeded our expectations,” CEO Roland Busch told reporters. Deutsche Bank’s Gael de-Bray labeled it “a promising start to the year.” Still, CFO Ralf Thomas flagged lingering nerves around tariffs and geopolitics, describing investment sentiment as “pretty shaky.”
