Alphabet's 20-year nuclear power agreement with Constellation Energy has catalyzed a broad rally in nuclear and AI infrastructure stocks, lifting Oklo and validating the energy demands of data centers. Concurrently, Nvidia is approaching a $6 trillion market cap, reinforcing the market's conviction in the AI build-out cycle. This thematic dominance is further supported by Google Cloud's collaboration with Mysten Labs on enterprise AI agents, cementing the link between energy, compute, and software. M&A activity is accelerating as Uber agrees to acquire ezCater for $2.3B to expand its workplace catering footprint, and Paramount completes its massive merger with Warner Bros. Discovery. These deals reflect a broader trend of megacaps consolidating market share and diversifying revenue streams in a high-rate environment. The scale of these transactions underscores the financial strength of top-tier tech and media firms despite macro headwinds.
