Fastly issued a press release last week saying: "We detected the disruption within one minute, then identified and isolated the cause, and disabled the configuration. Within 49 minutes, 95% of our network was operating as normal." Some investors could now be realizing just how important Fastly's services are to high-profile websites and services across the internet. Even after the outage, investors pushed up Fastly's stock by 14% last week. It appears that some investors are continuing the positive sentiment toward the company this week and are snatching up the tech company's shares. Now what Fastly' quickly became a winning stay-at-home stock last year while many people in the U.S. were under lockdowns and social distancing restrictions. But as businesses and the U.S. economy have begun to open back up, some investors have sold their shares, leaving Fastly's share price down 33% year to date. With last week's gains and today's share price jump, however, it appears some investors believe that the stock's pullback this year could be a significant buying opportunity. 10 stocks we like better than FastlyWhen investing geniuses David and Tom Gardner have a stock tip, it can pay to listen.
