The AI Infrastructure Reality Check
The narrative that AI expansion would lead to an immediate and unstoppable surge in energy stock valuations faced a setback.

The volatility in GE Vernova underscores the complexity of transitioning from theoretical demand to operational execution in the global energy-tech nexus. Infrastructure bottlenecks remain the primary risk for the tech sector's expansion.
