Cipher Mining (CIFR) surged 23.73% on May 5, 2026, following a strategic pivot toward hyperscale-ready AI and high-performance computing (HPC) data centers, supported by a new $200 million credit facility. The stock's strong performance came despite a $114.3 million net loss in Q1 and $34.8 million in revenue.
