Wall Street gets on the Bloom Energy train

Today's catalyst was from reports that Morgan Stanley maintained the equivalent of a buy rating on the stock while raising its price target from $44 to $85 per share. The optimism is based on news from July that Bloom will soon begin delivering on-site power through Bloom's fuel cell technology to Oracle's artificial intelligence (AI) data centers.

That news has brought a cascade of Wall Street analyst price target boosts on Bloom stock. A "massive inflection in demand" was one reason cited by Morgan Stanley. Other recent price target raises came from analysts at Wells Fargo, BMO Capital, and RBC Capital.

Oracle's recent earnings report gave Wall Street analysts added confidence that demand for Bloom's fuel cell technology will grow. Oracle gave investors a preview of that upcoming demand -- it expects its cloud infrastructure revenue to jump 77% this fiscal year to $18 billion. That's a nice year-over-year increase, but it pales in comparison to what Oracle management thinks is to come.

Oracle expects that revenue to soar to $144 billion by 2030. That means data center capacity needs will be soaring, too. Bloom's relationship with Oracle gives it an advantage to support that growth. That has investors and Wall Street analysts piling into Bloom Energy stock.
