Nebius stock cratered 14% on Thursday as investors punished the AI neocloud for a financing question it could not answer. A Friday announcement changed the math entirely, and the structure it revealed may rewrite how the whole sector funds its GPU buildout.

Meta Platforms is in talks to lease computing power to Anthropic ‌in a potential deal worth as ‌much as $10 billion over two years, the New York ​Times reported on Friday, citing three people with knowledge of the discussions. Such a deal would help Meta ⁠diversify beyond its core advertising business by generating new revenue from its infrastructure investments and ​directly pitting ​it against CoreWeave and ​Nebius, as growing ‌adoption of advanced tools drive up the need for computing capacity. Anthropic had proposed the deal in June and Meta is considering it, the report said.

CoreWeave has launched a $2.6 billion first-lien delayed-draw term loan (DDTL) to support the acquisition and installation of graphics processing units (GPUs), according to sources. A lender call is scheduled for 10 a.m. ET Monday, July 20, and commitments are due by noon ET Thursday, July 30. Price talk for the DDTL maturing in September 2031 is S+425-450, with a 0% floor and an OID of 99. That works out to a yield to maturity of 8.53%-8.79%. The DDTL is available until December 2026, with an u

Micron just locked in five-year supply deals at historically high DRAM prices while a major AI cloud buyer quietly bets those same prices are about to fall. One of them is going to be very wrong.

CoreWeave has lost nearly half its value in a year while one analyst just reaffirmed a price target that implies 243% upside, and his reasoning hinges on a single contractual clause that most investors seem to be ignoring.

Micron has completed SCAs with seven tier 1 automotive suppliers, including Qualcomm. Here’s what these agreements really mean for MU shares in the second half of 2026.

Nebius just unveiled an asset-light pivot designed to outmaneuver CoreWeave and the miner-to-AI crowd, yet the stock is cratering anyway. Here is what the selloff reveals about which neocloud models can actually survive the derating.

Micron Technology has become a key artificial-intelligence trade bellwether. Now analysts are trying to game out what peak earnings will look like for Micron if the AI cycle continues. A Trivariate Research analyst team, led by Adam Parker, on Thursday called Micron “the most important stock in the market,” writing that shares of the memory-chip maker have become a “proxy for the AI cycle and risk-taking.”

A contract with a key customer could be in jeopardy.

Oracle has shed a third of its value in weeks, and the obvious alternatives are moving in opposite directions. Before rotating into Cloudflare, CoreWeave, or Snowflake, investors need to understand which of these names actually offers shelter and which carries even more risk.

NBIS' new asset-light AI cloud model lets partners fund data centers, helping it scale global capacity faster while preserving cash.

The Nasdaq composite is down more than 1% this morning. Here are the stocks on the index that are getting hit hard: 💾 Chips, memory makers: Sandisk, Micron, AMD, SK Hynix's ADRs, Intel, Western Digital, Seagate, Arm, Broadcom, Nvidia and Marvell are all deep in the red.

Micron stock is down 20% over the past month and there are a few factors hitting the memory-chip company.

The backlog is enormous. So are the losses and the capital bills behind it.

An 8-gigawatt portfolio would ensure CoreWeave's path to a $1 trillion valuation, but financial realities can foil those plans.

Shares of memory chips maker Micron (NASDAQ:MU) fell 8.2% in the afternoon session after concerns grew over intensifying competition from a major Chinese rival amid expectations of weaker memory chip pricing.

CoreWeave stock has dropped sharply over the past year, yet current valuation checks and market multiples send a mixed message about how attractive the shares really look at today’s price. CoreWeave has fallen 43.1% over the past year, which puts the recent selloff at the center of the valuation debate. On the upside, a large committed backlog and long term power agreements can support long run revenue expectations, while legal action, high debt levels and customer concentration may weigh on...

The artificial-intelligence-driven data center boom has been lifting the American economy, and sparking political blowback.

TeraWulf is uniquely exposed to New York’s data-center moratorium, but Wall Street doesn’t see any real threat.

Bernstein remains bullish on the sector, stating that miners have contracted less than a quarter of their combined 30 GW power-development pipeline.

The AI cloud provider is reportedly studying put options to offset the risk that locked-in chip prices fall

Derivatives could protect margins if chip prices tumble

CoreWeave's AI infrastructure growth, expanding backlog and cloud platform could offer greater upside than Microsoft's diversified AI strategy.

Retail traders plan to buy dips as competition from Meta and valuation concerns pressure the sector.

AI cloud computing company CoreWeave is exploring the use of financial derivatives as a potential hedge ‌against a future drop in memory and storage chip prices, according to ‌a person familiar with the matter. To lock in supply amid soaring demand, thanks to a surge in AI infrastructure construction, cloud operators including CoreWeave have signed long-term agreements with memory and storage makers such as Micron and SanDisk. But the arrangement cuts both ways: it protects chipmakers from a downturn, but leaves cloud ⁠companies like CoreWeave exposed if prices fall and they are stuck paying well above the going rate.

The power provider is seeing a massive boost because of artificial intelligence.

There are two different ways to interpret Meta Platforms' apparent plans to start leasing its spare cloud capacity.

NBIS is scaling its AI-native hyperscaler with bigger infrastructure, platform expansion, record demand and fresh capital fueling long-term growth.

Investing.com -- B. Riley is framing this week's second-quarter earnings reports from ASML and TSMC as "tone-setting" for the entire semiconductor and semiconductor capital equipment sector, arguing that a $880 billion surge in AI infrastructure spending has arrived roughly 12 months ahead of the firm's prior forecasts.
