Billionaire investor David Tepper’s Appaloosa Management adds SpaceX (SPCX) and CoreWeave (CRWV) to its AI-focused bets, with Wall Street projecting roughly 50% upside over the next year, though both names carry significant risk given their rapid AI investments and profitability dynamics.
24/7 Wall St. projects CoreWeave (CRWV) to reach about $166.75–$171 by Aug 2027, implying up to ~90% upside based on a $104 billion backlog that dwarfs its sub‑$50 billion market cap. The bull case hinges on improving operating margins in the low teens by Q4 and a ramp in power/inference monetization, but the stock carries heavy cash burn (free cash flow −$5.7B in Q2) and large capex guidance ($35–$39B for 2026). Comparisons to Nebius and Oracle are used, while a bear case warns of financing/interest risks; sentiment is mixed and one noted NVIDIA caller did not include CRWV among top AI stocks.
CoreWeave narrowed Q2 losses to $1.14 per share on $2.5 billion in revenue and posted adjusted operating income of $128 million, beating expectations, while backlogs rose to $104 billion (not including about $25 billion in Q3 commitments). The results helped the stock rally about 18% in premarket trading as the company continues heavy investment in AI data-center capacity, even as SpaceX rents compute from its facilities and Meta weighs entering the space, signaling strong demand but rising competition.
CoreWeave's stock (CRWV) rose after Dell delivered Nvidia's Vera Rubin NVL72 server rack to CoreWeave—the first deployment of the NVL72—while Michael Dell called the collaboration 'thrilled,' signaling strong demand for GPU-accelerated cloud infrastructure.
CoreWeave posted a strong Q1 2026 revenue surge (about $2.1 billion, up 32% sequential and 112% YoY) and a backlog near $99.4 billion, but an EPS miss (-$1.11 vs -$0.92 expected) pressured the stock, which fell ~11%. Top investor Geoffrey Seiler cautions that CoreWeave’s highly leveraged, cash-flow-light model makes it vulnerable to rising GPU costs and dependence on external financing, noting comparisons to cash-rich hyperscalers. The company raised its 2026 capex lower bound to $31 billion (high end $35B) and issued Q2 guidance of $2.45–$2.6 billion (below consensus), while Wall Street maintains a Moderate Buy view with a 12‑month target around $132.65 (about 16% upside).
CoreWeave announced a $21 billion expansion to its AI infrastructure agreement with Meta Platforms, extending cloud capacity through 2032 across multiple locations and including Nvidia Vera Rubin deployments to support Meta’s growing AI workloads; CRWV rose in pre-market trading, and analysts assign a Moderate Buy rating with a target near $115, signaling upside.
CoreWeave (CRWV) is described as a neocloud provider delivering Nvidia GPU-accelerated AI workloads for clients such as Microsoft and OpenAI, backed by a large revenue backlog and rapid scaling toward profitability in the next few years; TipRanks’ technicals currently flag a Buy with a consensus price target around $113.45, implying roughly 38% upside.
CoreWeave’s stock fell about 16% after Q4 results showed revenue up 110% to roughly $1.57 billion, but a larger loss and rising debt from rapid data-center expansion spooked investors. The company’s guidance for Q1 revenue of $1.9–2.0 billion and an ~8% operating margin, plus 2026 capex of $30–35 billion, suggest profits may stay thin in the near term despite strong demand and a multi‑billion backlog.
CoreWeave (CRWV) is set to report Q4 2025 results on Feb 26 amid cautious optimism as data-center demand and AI spending support the business; options traders expect about a 17.11% move on the print. The Street projects a loss of about $0.50 per share on roughly $1.55 billion in revenue. Analysts are mixed but generally positive on long-term catalysts, with Roth Capital and Wells Fargo issuing bullish targets around $110–$125, while TipRanks AI Analyst remains neutral; risks include high debt, customer concentration, and the funding needs for data-center expansion.
Wells Fargo's Michael Turrin reiterates an Overweight rating on CoreWeave (CRWV), arguing that demand for the company's AI compute capacity could lift Q4 FY2025 revenue above the Street estimates. He models about $1.57 billion in Q4 revenue, near the consensus of $1.56 billion, citing over 1 gigawatt of contracted capacity remaining for the next 12–24 months and recent deals with Runway and Poolside; Poolside could represent roughly $1 billion in annual revenue. The stock has jumped about 140% in the last year, and TipRanks shows a Moderate Buy consensus with a target implying roughly 33% upside.
Evercore ISI analyst Amit Daryanani calls Nvidia’s additional $2 billion investment in CoreWeave a game-changing move that could lift Nvidia’s stake to about 12–13% and unlock high-margin software monetization (SUNK and Mission Control) while CoreWeave expands into CPUs and storage, targeting over $100 million in ARR; CRWV carries a rough $126.77 price target with roughly 14–15% upside, though risks include customer concentration and potential GPU obsolescence.
