Digi Power X's US Data Centers Collaborates With Super Micro Computer To Deploy Customized B200 GPU Rack Solutions At Newly Developed Data Center In Alabama

A sharp jump in Treasury yields following Wednesday's weak 20-year bond auction triggered a swift market reaction, with several high-growth and tech names plunging between 1:05 p.m. and 2:05 p.m. ET—the exact window 30-year <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/treasuries">yields spiked above 5.08%.</a>
Tempus AI Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TEM#NASDAQ">TEM</a>) led the decline, falling 6.9%, followed by Hims &amp; Hers Health Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HIMS#NYSE">HIMS</a>), which dropped 5%, data from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/?utm_source=BZprocontent&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1">Benzinga Pro</a> platform shows. 
AI infrastructure firm CoreWeave Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWV#NASDAQ">CRWV</a>) slid 4.4%, while Bitcoin-linked Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>) tumbled 4.3%. 
Trading platform Robinhood Markets Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOD#NASDAQ">HOOD</a>) lost 3.7%.
The selloff came as investors repriced risk across equities amid fears of persistently higher rates, sparked by soft demand at the 20-year Treasury auction. 
The bid-to-cover ratio of 2.46 landed near the bottom quartile of the past 50 auctions, with the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TLT#NASDAQ">TLT</a>), sliding to a 19-month low.
Notable losers among the 20 movers with at least $10 billion market cap also included Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>), Coinbase Global Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>) and Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), with declines of 3.1%, 2.9% and 2.7%, respectively. 
Semiconductor names also came under pressure, as ON Semiconductor Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ON#NASDAQ">ON</a>) fell 2.8%, while Super Micro Computer Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>) lost 3% during the hour-long selloff. Other high-beta tech stocks such as Credo Technology Group Holding Ltd. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRDO#NASDAQ">CRDO</a>) and Mobileye Global Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MBLY#NASDAQ">MBLY</a>) each dropped over 3%, reflecting broad-based risk aversion triggered by the Treasury market spike. 
The weakness extended into biotech and aerospace sectors as well, with Summit Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMMT#NASDAQ">SMMT</a>) and Rocket Lab USA Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RKLB#NASDAQ">RKLB</a>) down 2.7% and 3.5%, respectively.

Treasury Yields Top 5%: These 20 Stocks Tanked In Just One Hour

Super Micro Computer (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>) plans to expand its <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/ai" rel="noreferrer noopener">server production capacity</a> in U.S. states such as Mississippi and Texas. Big Tech giants Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) and Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) spend big bucks to build data centers to train and deploy artificial intelligence models globally.
The company said it also got a boost from President Trump&#8217;s push for localization.

The AI server company&#8217;s Chair and Chief, Charles Liang, backed the company&#8217;s expansion by describing the surge in the global demand for artificial intelligence in an <a target="_blank" href="https://www.wsj.com/tech/super-micro-to-expand-production-capacity-as-ai-demand-accelerates-b87ee53b?mod=tech_lead_story" rel="noreferrer noopener">interview</a> with the Wall Street Journal on Monday.
Liang recognized growth opportunities in the U.S., Europe, and Japan. In February, Super Micro Computer&nbsp;showcased plans to build its third campus in San Jose.
Liang said the company was eyeing manufacturing in Texas and Mississippi as costs in Silicon Valley rise. Super Micro Computer&nbsp;makes the bulk of its servers in California.
Super Micro Computer stock declined over 52% in the last 12 months as the company&#8217;s <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/05/45406701/super-micro-computer-stock-is-surging-again-whats-going-on" rel="noreferrer noopener">internal financing controls</a> came under scrutiny after its independent auditor&nbsp;resigned last October over&nbsp;governance and transparency concerns, which led the company to delay filing its quarterly and full-year results.
Delayed orders of servers and other computer products due to tariff uncertainties prompted the company to cut its outlook.
Super Micro Computer now expects fiscal year sales of $21.8 billion—$22.6 billion, down from a prior outlook of $23.5 billion—$25 billion.
Liang acknowledged production challenges in the U.S., including higher costs and a three-decade-old lack of a semiconductor production system, which made its infrastructure and people unfamiliar with manufacturing jobs.
Raymond James&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/05/45490921/super-micro-rolls-out-ai-servers-with-nvidias-blackwell-chips-to-cut-costs-boost-performance" rel="noreferrer noopener">initiated coverage on</a> Super Micro Computer, citing AI platforms constitute approximately 70% of Supermicro&#8217;s revenue, positioning it as a dominant player among branded server vendors.&nbsp;
Price Action: SMCI shares were trading higher by 1.19% to $43.28 premarket at last check Wednesday.

Apple Users Ditch Google Search, Trump Praises Nvidia's Jensen Huang At Saudi Summit, SMCI Stock In 'Sweet Spot' And More: This Week In Artificial Intelligence

Benzinga examined the prospects for <a href="http://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">many investors' favorite stocks</a> over the last week — here's a look at some of our top stories.
U.S. stocks extended their rally for a fifth consecutive day on Friday, buoyed by easing trade tensions and softer-than-expected April inflation data. The S&amp;P 500 returned to positive territory for the year, while the dollar rebounded amid rising Treasury yields. However, consumer sentiment slumped to 2020 levels, with one-year inflation expectations jumping to 7.3%, significantly above forecasts.
Despite the market's upward momentum, concerns about inflation persist. The University of Michigan's consumer sentiment index dropped to 50.8, reflecting heightened inflation fears. Gold prices fell 1.8% due to stronger yields and dollar strength, while Bitcoin recovered to over $104,500.
Looking ahead, investors are closely monitoring upcoming U.S.-China trade talks and potential adjustments to existing tariffs. The Federal Reserve's stance on interest rates remains a focal point, especially as real borrowing costs rise, tightening broader financial conditions. Additionally, corporate earnings reports and economic indicators will continue to influence market dynamics in the coming weeks.
Benzinga provides daily reports on the stocks most popular with investors. Here are a few of this past week's most bullish and bearish posts that are worth another look.

10 Information Technology Stocks With Whale Alerts In Today's Session

U.S. tech stocks extended their weekly rally into Wednesday's session, lifted by renewed investor appetite for risk following a breakthrough in early-week U.S.-China trade negotiations. This reignited hopes for a more <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tariffs">stable global trade outlook. </a>
The Nasdaq 100 rose 0.5% by midday in New York, reaching levels last seen in late February. Heavyweight chipmakers led the rally, as Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) surged 4% and Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>) jumped 5%.
Traders welcomed mounting expectations of large-scale investments from Gulf nations into U.S. tech and semiconductor sectors, as President Donald Trump secured new economic agreements with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45417156/nvidia-amd-stocks-climb-as-trump-plans-to-ease-ai-chip-export-rules">Middle Eastern countries</a>, including Saudi Arabia and Syria.
While the Nasdaq marched higher, the S&amp;P 500 stalled and both the Dow Jones Industrial Average and Russell 2000 slipped slightly, indicating a more selective rally focused on high-growth sectors.
Clean energy and solar stocks outperformed again, building on strong Tuesday gains. Investors cheered a less-severe-than-expected revision to clean energy tax credits in the latest Republican tax proposal.
The commodity space told a different story, with gold prices dropping nearly 2%, breaking below the $3,200 per ounce mark for the first time in over a month. 
The yellow metal is now tracking its worst weekly performance since November 2024, with two trading sessions still left this week.
Investors appear to be rotating out of safe-haven assets, as appetite for equities and riskier plays returns on global trade optimism. 
Rising Treasury yields also weighed on broader market sentiment. The yield on the 2-year Treasury note broke above 4%, hitting its highest level in more than two months. Meanwhile, the 30-year bond yield rose 5 basis points to 4.97%, drawing closer to the psychologically important 5% mark—a level often associated with tightening financial conditions and pressure on long-duration assets.
