SMCI made headlines last month after rival Dell Technologies Inc (NYSE: DELL) announced it would partner with Musk's xAI to build an AI data center for its generative AI chatbot Grok. Musk later added that Dell is building half the data center, and SMCI is building the other half.
SMCI previously confirmed its partnership with xAI. However, Liang's post last night further solidified its position in the datacetner.
Shares of SMCI are up 186% year-to-date.
