SpaceEx (SPCX) stock is on the move Thursday as investors sort through a number of headlines affecting the rocket-and-satellite company.
The most consequential came from The Information, which reported that ******* eX and CEO Elon Musk are overhauling how the company builds its data centers, a shift that could slow the pace of new construction.
According to the report, a new management team from the company's rocket division is prioritizing reliability over speed, installing more backup power and cooling systems, and testing data centers more thoroughly before they go live.
The change is a departure from what Musk and xAI (now part of ******* eX) used to build at its Colossus campus in Tennessee, where the AI unit brought its first data center online in just 122 days, a timeline Nvidia (NVDA) CEO Jensen Huang called "superhuman."
But that speed came with trade-offs like frequent outages, including a construction-related outage at the Memphis facility last week that knocked some Grok models offline and affected compute customers like Anthropic (ANTH.PVT) and Google (GOOG, GOOGL), The Information said.
