The software industry's market capitalization has plunged by 26% in the last six months, now sitting at $1.3 trillion. Despite this downturn, some companies in the infrastructure segment have experienced remarkable growth, with Bloom Energy's stock soaring over 240% and Quanta Services and MasTec each increasing by more than 300% since May 2023. This period marks a significant AI stock rally, ignited by Nvidia's strong earnings report in May, which served as a catalyst for the sector. During this timeframe, the American semiconductor index has skyrocketed by 423.9%, greatly outpacing the broader U.S. market's 85.6% growth.
