Missing figures stay unavailable. Forward P/E requires a dated source. Annual revenue, revenue growth, net income and margin come from each company's own 10-K, in US dollars, and each row shows that fiscal year. Revenue growth compares the fiscal year with the prior year stated in the same 10-K. Net income is the full year amount attributable to the company, or available to common stockholders where the filing states only that, or consolidated net income. Each row names its basis. Trailing P/E reads "Not meaningful" when the dated trailing diluted EPS is a loss or zero. An operating margin appears only when the filing states both the operating income and the revenue for the same year.
Sources: SEC filings, Gloria daily closes and CoinGecko. Oldest record refresh: Oct 27, 2026, 8:48 PM EDT. Refresh is not a price or filing date. Each row shows its price date and its annual fiscal period. Peers use industry code and company size, or editorial selection. Market cap multiplies that row price by the company share total the latest SEC filing states for every share class together. Trailing P/E divides it by trailing diluted earnings from SEC filings. Rolled earnings per share are approximate because share counts can change between periods. Both appear only when the SEC data carries its date, so they are estimates at one price date, not synchronized filing valuations. Not investment advice.

A group of US lawmakers is pressing the White House over rising electric bills linked to AI infrastructure built by tech giants like Meta, OpenAI, Alphabet, and Oracle, according to a Wall Street Journal report.
In a letter sent Monday, Senators Bernie Sanders, Richard Blumenthal, Ed Markey, Chris Van Hollen, and Ron Wyden warned that AI data centers are driving up electricity costs across the country, with some households now competing with trillion-dollar firms for power access.
The senators demanded details from the Trump administration on how it plans to manage the price impact and ensure corporations bear the brunt of the costs.
Blumenthal said the goal isn’t to stop the buildout but to implement federal safeguards to protect consumers. The letter follows a growing wave of local opposition to energy-hungry data centers receiving tax breaks while utilities struggle to keep up.

Despite Trump’s pledge to lower energy costs, electric bills rose 5.1% year-on-year in September. Analysts say AI infrastructure is adding pressure to already strained grids, as firms accelerate buildouts powered by fossil fuels and even construct their own energy sources to bypass delays.
