Friday's Top 5 Trending Stocks: What's The Scoop On Palantir, Bloom Energy, Pfizer?

Bloom Energy Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BE#NYSE">BE</a>) announced a 1 GW fuel cell supply deal with American Electric Power Company Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AEP#NASDAQ">AEP</a>), which sent its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/be">stock soaring in early trading on Friday</a>.
The deal is "proof of concept" that the company's product can power large-scale data centers, according to Piper Sandler.
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/58933b2043eaaa0001698f48/kashy-harrison">Analyst Kashy Harrison</a> upgraded the rating from Neutral to Overweight while raising the price target from $10 to $20.
The Bloom Energy Thesis: The latest order could "open the door to future arrangements with other utilities," Harrison said in the upgrade note.
Check out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings">other analyst stock ratings</a>.
Due to previous failures, markets had been skeptical about Bloom Energy's ability to deliver power to large data centers, the analyst stated. The order from AEP "is literally 10x what we were expecting," he added.
"Due to AEP order, the 80 MW SK Eternix order, the minimum 125 MW SK Ecoplant commitment, and continued momentum with other domestic customers, we see a path to $1.8B of revenues next year," Harrison further wrote.
BE Price Action: Shares of Bloom Energy Industries had risen by 49.21% to $19.83 at the time of publication on Friday.

American Electric Power shares are trading lower after the company reported worse-than-expected Q3 revenue results and issued FY25 adjusted EPS guidance below estimates.

An &#8220;everything rally&#8221; powered Wall Street on Wednesday after the 2024 election results, with Donald Trump emerging as the clear presidential winner. The Republican Party reclaimed control of the Senate, while the House of Representatives leans Republican <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/41778433/s-p-500-dow-hit-record-highs-after-trump-win-fear-index-drops-20">but remains undecided.</a>
The major U.S. equity indices – the S&amp;P 500, Dow Jones Industrial Average, and Nasdaq 100 – surged to record highs in early trading, as investor optimism grew on expectations of more favorable tax policies. 
The S&amp;P 500, Nasdaq, and Dow posted gains of 2.3%, 2.4%, and 3.3%, respectively.
However, the real standouts were small caps and bank stocks, with investors turning to domestic businesses and U.S. banks in anticipation of potential tariff protections and further financial deregulation. 
The Russell 2000 jumped 5.5%, marking its largest single-day increase in two years. 
Large-cap bank stocks climbed 6%, while regional banks tracked by the SPDR S&amp;P Regional Banking ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KRE#NYSE">KRE</a>) soared 13%—both seeing their biggest one-day gains since November 2020, when the first COVID-19 vaccine was announced.
Clean energy stocks were among the day's worst performers, with the Invesco Solar ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TAN#NYSE">TAN</a>) plunging 11% for its steepest drop since March 2020, as investors braced for potential rollbacks on green initiatives under the Trump administration.
In the foreign exchange market, the U.S. dollar initially rallied nearly 2% before paring gains to 1.4% as traders awaited a Federal Reserve interest rate cut on Thursday.
Treasury yields spiked as expectations rose for larger budget deficits under Republican fiscal policies and higher inflation due to potential tariffs. The 10-year Treasury yield climbed 14 basis points to 4.41%, reaching a four-month high.
Gold prices fell 2.8%, silver dropped over 4%, while natural gas rose 3.8%. Oil prices remained steady.
In the cryptocurrency market, risk appetite thrived, with Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) rising over 8% to reach a record high of $75,000. Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) gained 10%, and Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) surged 14%, the strongest performance among the top 10 cryptocurrencies.

American Electric Power Q3: EPS Beat, Revenue Miss, 10% Commercial Load Jump & More

EARNINGS GUIDANCE
AEP narrowed its 2024 operating earnings guidance range to $5.58 to $5.68 per share. Operating earnings could differ from GAAP earnings for matters such as impairments, divestitures or changes in accounting principles. AEP management is not able to forecast if any of these items will occur or any amounts that may be reported for future periods. Therefore, AEP is not able to provide a corresponding GAAP equivalent for 2024 earnings guidance.
Reflecting special items recorded through the third quarter, the estimated earnings per share on a GAAP basis would be $5.55 to $5.65 per share. See the table below for a full reconciliation of 2024 earnings guidance.
