CoreWeave Stock Drops 30% in One Month: What Went Wrong
CoreWeave shares have shed nearly a third of their value in just one month, raising questions about AI infrastructure valuations.
CoreWeave, the AI cloud computing company that debuted with one of the most anticipated IPOs of 2025, has seen its stock tumble roughly 30% in a single month, rattling investors who had piled into the name on expectations of explosive growth in artificial intelligence infrastructure demand.
The sharp decline reflects a broader recalibration in the market's appetite for high-valuation AI plays.
