As of the time of this update, no confirmed catalyst has been identified. Moves of this magnitude without an obvious headline, such as an earnings report or an acquisition announcement, sometimes reverse just as quickly if the underlying driver turns out to be thinner than the price action suggests.
The key thing to monitor now is whether the gain holds into the close. A stock that opens sharply higher and drifts back sends a weaker signal than one grinding higher across the full session, and the intraday action here leans toward the latter.
