Listen for comprehensive cross-platform coverage of the US market close as heard on Bloomberg Television, Bloomberg Radio, and YouTube with Romaine Bostick, Katie Greifeld, Carol Massar and Tim Stenovec.

- Oracle (ORCL) shares soared as much as 15% on Wednesday after the software and cloud services company reported strong sales and issued an outlook that suggests little letup in demand for AI computing. Revenue in Oracle’s closely watched infrastructure business jumped 84% to $4.9 billion in the three months ended Feb. 28, the company said Tuesday in a statement, surpassing the 79% that analysts had expected and up from 68% in the previous quarter. Total revenue will reach $90 billion in the fiscal year beginning in June, Oracle said, also handily beating analysts’ projections. The shares traded as high as $171.76 Wednesday in New York, their biggest intraday gain in six months. 

- Sable Offshore (SOC) saw its shares rip higher after Bloomberg reported that President Donald Trump is preparing to invoke Cold War-era powers to pave the way for renewed oil production off the southern California coast, a long-shot bid to help ease the global crude supply crunch spurred by his war with Iran. Trump is set to soon summon authorities under the Defense Production Act to preempt state laws and ease permitting for Sable Offshore Corp., a Houston-based company looking to restart significant production from a cluster of offshore platforms in California. The plan was described by a person familiar with the matter who asked not to be named because it’s not yet public. Trading in Sable’s shares was halted after prices jumped as much as 34% on the news. The company’s shares have seen sharp swings and multiple trading halts in the last year.

- Petco (WOOF) shares soar 16% in after hours trading, as the pet health and wellness company’s adjusted Ebitda forecast for the first quarter beat the average analyst estimate.
