Jim Cramer lancia l&#39;allarme: &#34;le politiche di Trump falsano i mercati&#34;

Shares of AI infrastructure firm CoreWeave Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWV#NASDAQ">CRWV</a>) are soaring in Thursday morning trading after receiving a vote of confidence from Citigroup.
The bank <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CRWV/analyst-ratings">upgraded</a> the stock to Buy from a previous Neutral rating and announced a new price target of $160, suggesting substantial upside and providing a powerful counter-narrative to recent bearish sentiment.
What To Know: The bullish call from Citi comes during a period of intense volatility for the stock, which has become a focal point of debate on Wall Street. 
Investors have been weighing the company's ambitious growth strategy, including its pending $9 billion all-stock <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46423337/coreweave-6-billion-ai-bet-boosts-core-scientific-9-billion-deal">acquisition</a> of Core Scientific and a $6 billion plan for a new <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/07/46410852/coreweave-commits-6-billion-to-us-ai-infrastructure-in-lancaster">AI data center</a>, against considerable risks.
Citi&#8217;s upgrade directly challenges the bearish case that has recently gained traction. Just last week, HSBC initiated coverage with a Reduce rating and a stark $32 price target, citing extreme customer concentration as its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/07/46503455/coreweave-shares-slide-after-hsbc-initiates-coverage-with-bearish-outlook">primary concern</a>. 
HSBC noted that a single client, Microsoft Corp, accounted for 72% of CoreWeave&#8217;s first-quarter revenue. That bearish call followed a string of downgrades in early July from firms worried about the high capital expenditures required for its expansion.
Thursday&#8217;s rally, sparked by the new analyst rating, underscores the ongoing tug-of-war between CoreWeave&#8217;s immense growth potential and its significant operational and financial risks, with Wall Street&#8217;s divided opinions acting as key catalysts for the stock&#8217;s direction.
Benzinga Edge Rankings: Based on financial data from <a href="http://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Edge</a>, CoreWeave&#8217;s market capitalization stands at approximately $55.61 billion. From a technical standpoint, the stock&#8217;s Relative Strength Index is at 41, suggesting it is in neutral territory and neither overbought nor oversold. 
Notably, short interest represents 7.13% of the stock&#8217;s float, with a &#8216;days to cover&#8217; ratio of 1.28, indicating a significant level of bearish bets against the company.
Price Action: According to data from <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, CRWV shares are trading higher by 12.2% to $115.43 Thursday morning. The stock has a 52-week high of $187.00 and a 52-week low of $33.52.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy CRWV Stock</h2>
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for CoreWeave &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy &#8220;fractional shares,&#8221; which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share.
In the case of CoreWeave, which is trading at $115.43 as of publishing time, $100 would buy you 0.87 shares of stock.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to &#8220;go short&#8221; a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.

CoreWeave (CRWV) Stock Is Surging Thursday: What's Driving The Action?

Applied Digital Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APLD#NASDAQ">APLD</a>) shares are trading higher Thursday after the company reported financial results <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/earnings/25/07/46741319/applied-digital-stock-soars-after-q4-results-how-coreweave-bitcoin-are-helping">for the fourth quarter</a>.

The company reported an adjusted loss of 3 cents per share, beating estimates for a loss of 15 cents per share.
Total revenue was up 41% on a year-over-year basis, primarily driven by increased capacity coming online in the company&#8217;s data center hosting business.

The company said CoreWeave also exercised an option subsequent to quarter&#8217;s end that will add $4 billion in contracted revenue to the agreements. 
&#8220;These long-term leases mark a defining moment for Polaris Forge 1, one of North America&#8217;s most ambitious data center projects. Purpose-built for artificial intelligence and high-performance computing, the campus combines massive power capacity with rapid deployment and is designed to scale up to 1 gigawatt,&#8221; said Wes Cummins, chairman and CEO of Applied Digital.

12 Information Technology Stocks Moving In Thursday's Pre-Market Session

Applied Digital (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APLD#NASDAQ">APLD</a>) shares are trading higher after the company reported fourth-quarter financial results Wednesday<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings"> after market close.</a>
APLD stock is on the move, climbing higher.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/APLD" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">See real-time price here.</a>
What Happened: Applied Digital reported fourth-quarter revenue of $38.01 million, up 41% year-over-year. The revenue total missed a Street consensus estimate of $40.84 million according to data<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/register?utm_adType=bzprocontent&amp;utm_campaign=14daytrial&amp;utm_ad=0730"> from Benzinga Pro.</a>
The company's revenue came mainly from its Data Center Hosting Business, which operates data centers to provide space for crypto mining customers. The company's 106 megawatt and 180 megawatt facilities in North Dakota were operating at full capacity in the quarter.
Applied Digital said demand for these services "remains robust" with Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) prices hitting all-time highs.
The company reported a loss of 3 cents per share, beating a Street consensus estimate of a loss of 15 cents per share.
Full fiscal year revenue was $144.2 million for the company, up 6% year-over-year. The company reported and adjusted loss of 6 cents per share for the full fiscal year.
What's Next: The company said it signed two 15-year lease agreements with CoreWeave Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWV#NASDAQ">CRWV</a>) to deliver 250 megawatts of critical IT load from its North Dakota data center campus.
Applied Digital said these lease agreements are expected to generate around $7 billion in contracted revenue over the 15-year lease terms.
Since the end of the quarter, CoreWeave exercised its lease option for an additional 150 megawatts.
Together, the updated lease terms will bring in around $11 billion over the 15-year lease terms. &nbsp;
"These long-term leases mark a defining moment for Polaris Forge 1, one of North America's most ambitious data center projects," Applied Digital CEO Wes Cummins said.
The first 100 megawatt facility is scheduled to be operational in the fourth quarter of 2025 with a second 150 megawatt facility up in mid-2026 and a third 150 megawatt facility in 2027.
"We believe Polaris Forge 1 will serve as a launchpad for the future of AI infrastructure."
Cummins said the company is working on building strong relationships with all the major hyperscalers to position the company well for future projects.
"We're confident that our multi-gigawatt pipeline and proven design and construction expertise, combined with hyperscalers that appear to be more active than ever in securing land, power, and data center capacity, should continue to drive our growth."
APLD Price Action: Applied Digital stock is up 9.65% to $11 in after-hours trading versus a 52-week trading range of $3.01 to $15.42.

Applied Digital Stock Soars After Q4 Results: How CoreWeave, Bitcoin Are Helping

Shares of AI infrastructure provider CoreWeave Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWV#NASDAQ">CRWV</a>) are trading lower Wednesday afternoon, continuing a period of significant volatility despite a lack of company-specific news. Here&#8217;s what investors <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CRWV/news">need to know</a>.
CRWV stock is seeing a decline in price. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CRWV" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Track it now here.</a>
What To Know: The decline extends recent weakness as investors grapple with the company&#8217;s aggressive expansion plans versus mounting concerns over valuation and customer concentration.
The stock has been a battleground for analysts following its meteoric rise of over 240% since its March 2025 IPO. Bulls point to CoreWeave&#8217;s ambitious strategy, highlighted by its recent $9 billion <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46423337/coreweave-6-billion-ai-bet-boosts-core-scientific-9-billion-deal">all-stock agreement</a> to acquire Core Scientific and a subsequent commitment to build a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/07/46410852/coreweave-commits-6-billion-to-us-ai-infrastructure-in-lancaster">$6 billion AI data center</a> in Pennsylvania. 
On July 21, Barclays <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/07/46525720/coreweave-stock-is-soaring-monday-whats-going-on">fueled optimism</a> by raising its price target to $140, citing the company&#8217;s growth trajectory. However, a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/07/46503455/coreweave-shares-slide-after-hsbc-initiates-coverage-with-bearish-outlook">bear case emerged</a> on July 18 when HSBC initiated coverage with a Reduce rating and a stark $32 price target. 
The firm&#8217;s primary concern is CoreWeave&#8217;s heavy reliance on a handful of clients, noting that Microsoft alone accounted for 72% of revenue in the first quarter of 2025.
This followed a series of downgrades from firms like Mizuho and Stifel earlier in July, which questioned the financial implications of the costly Core Scientific acquisition.
Wednesday&#8217;s price action suggests that in the absence of fresh catalysts, investor anxiety over CoreWeave&#8217;s concentrated revenue base and high capital expenditures could be outweighing the excitement for its long-term AI potential.
CRWV Price Action: According to data from <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, CoreWeave shares closed down 5.38% to $102.89 on Wednesday. The stock has a 52-week high of $187 and a 52-week low of $33.52.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy CRWV Stock</h2>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share — or fractional share — of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument.
For example, CoreWeave is in the Information Technology sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.

Nebius Group NV (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NBIS#NASDAQ">NBIS</a>) might be the most underappreciated player in<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/artificial-intelligence"> AI infrastructure today</a>. At a $12 billion market cap, it's trading like a mid-cap growth story.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Billions In Plain Sight — Still Ignored</h2>
But a closer look by Ng Investing <a href="https://x.com/ng_investing/status/1947720297395974286">on</a> X revealed the company is sitting on $3.7 to $5.7 billion worth of subsidiaries — hidden in plain sight, yet not fully priced in by the market.
Take ClickHouse: Nebius owns 28% of the open-source database firm, last valued at $6 billion. That alone is worth $1.68 billion. 
Add Jeff Bezos-backed Toloka, estimated at $1–2 billion, and autonomous vehicle platform Avride, also pegged at $1–2 billion, and Nebius's partial stakes in these companies amount to a massive chunk of its market cap.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What You're Really Paying For</h2>
Strip out the subsidiary value, and investors are effectively getting Nebius's core AI infrastructure business for just $7–9 billion. That business, per management&#8217;s latest guidance, is expected to generate $750 million to $1 billion in annual recurring revenue by the end of 2025 — growing at triple-digit rates.
At 7x–9x forward ARR, Nebius is trading well below the multiples assigned to other AI players.
Compare that to CoreWeave Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWV#NASDAQ">CRWV</a>), which is burning over $1 billion per quarter and saddled with $7.5 billion in debt — yet still commanding attention and valuation multiples that ignore risk.
Nebius, by contrast, is debt-free, diversified, and sitting on monetizable assets.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Wall Street Might Be Looking The Other Way</h2>
The market continues to reward risky, debt-heavy AI bets while missing what's right in front of it: a fast-growing, asset-rich company quietly trading at a discount. While CoreWeave stock is up 216.48% year-to-date, Nebius has gained 68.27% over the same period.
If Wall Street keeps overlooking the $5 billion sitting inside Nebius's portfolio, it may be handing savvy investors a rare shot at buying core AI growth with a multi-billion-dollar bonus built in.
This isn't just a conglomerate discount — it's a visibility issue hiding in plain sight.

CoreWeave (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWV#NASDAQ">CRWV</a>) shares are trading higher on Monday following the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/07/b46515173/coreweave-announces-intention-to-offer-1-500-million-of-senior-notes">company&#8217;s announcement</a> of a private offering for $1.5 billion in senior notes due 2031. 
These notes, which will be guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain wholly-owned subsidiaries, are intended to fund general corporate purposes, including the repayment of outstanding debt and associated offering expenses. 
This news comes as Barclays analyst Raimo Lenschow <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CRWV/analyst-ratings">maintained</a> an Equal-Weight rating on the stock, while raising the price forecast from $100 to $140.

This positive movement in CoreWeave&#8217;s stock contrasts with a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/07/46503455/coreweave-shares-slide-after-hsbc-initiates-coverage-with-bearish-outlook">recent Reduce rating</a> initiated by HSBC analyst Abhishek Shukla last week, who set a $32 price forecast. 
Shukla&#8217;s concerns centered on CoreWeave&#8217;s significant reliance on a few key clients, namely Microsoft (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), OpenAI, and Nvidia (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), who primarily utilize CoreWeave&#8217;s core GPU infrastructure rather than its software services.
Shukla argued that this concentrated customer base introduces vulnerability to CoreWeave&#8217;s business model and could limit its ability to retain clients. 
He highlighted that Microsoft alone contributed 72% of CoreWeave&#8217;s first-quarter 2025 revenue, with Microsoft and OpenAI combined accounting for the bulk of its backlog. 
HSBC also cautioned that the stock appeared overvalued, especially after experiencing a surge of over 240% since its public debut in March 2025.
Despite this recent analyst caution, CoreWeave stock has seen a substantial gain of 264% in the last three months. However, it has also experienced a decline of over 26% in the past 30 days. 
Price Action:&nbsp;CoreWeave stock is trading higher by 4.38% to $128.41 at last check Monday.

CoreWeave Stock Is Soaring Monday: What's Going On?

CoreWeave shares are trading higher after Barclays maintained an Equal-Weight rating on the stock and raised its price target from $100 to $140.

Barclays analyst Raimo Lenschow maintains CoreWeave (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWV#NASDAQ">CRWV</a>) with a Equal-Weight and raises the price target from $100 to $140.

Barclays Maintains Equal-Weight on CoreWeave, Raises Price Target to $140

CoreWeave, Inc. (Nasdaq: CRWV) ("CoreWeave") announced today that it intends, subject to market and other customary conditions, to offer $1,500 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes due 2031 (the "Notes") in a private offering. The Notes will be guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain wholly-owned subsidiaries of CoreWeave.
CoreWeave intends to use the proceeds from the offering of the Notes for general corporate purposes, including, without limitation, repayment of outstanding indebtedness, and to pay fees, costs and expenses in connection with the offering of the Notes.

CoreWeave Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWV#NASDAQ">CRWV</a>) shares are trading lower Friday, possibly amid ongoing pressure following a bearish initiation report from HSBC on Friday.
What To Know: The decline follows HSBC&#8217;s recent initiation of coverage on CoreWeave with a Reduce rating and a price target of $32, signaling an expected downside of more than 70% from the previous closing price.
HSBC analyst Abhishek Shukla expressed concerns about CoreWeave's reliance on a limited customer base, which the firm believes weakens the company's business model. <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/07/17/hsbc-says-coreweave-shares-will-drop-more-than-70percent-on-concerns-about-customer-base.html">According to CNBC</a> a significant portion of CoreWeave's revenue is concentrated among a few clients, most notably Microsoft, OpenAI and Nvidia. These customers reportedly do not utilize CoreWeave's software services, which the analyst argues undermines the company&#8217;s value proposition and limits customer retention advantages.
Shukla noted that in the first quarter of 2025, Microsoft accounted for 72% of CoreWeave's revenue, with Microsoft and OpenAI together making up the majority of the company's backlog. HSBC also warned that the stock appears overvalued after its rapid rise of more than 240% since its public debut in March 2025.
CRWV Price Action: CoreWeave shares were down 7.37% at $122.46 at the time of writing, according to<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?new_user=False&amp;backend=google-oauth2"> Benzinga pro.</a>
