CoreWeave’s double-digit surge is blowing away even the most bullish on Wall Street

All eight of the analysts who have a “buy” rating on the stock also have price targets that are well below where the shares currently trade!

Shares of AI cloud computing company CoreWeave broke above the $100 threshold for the first time Wednesday, up double digits on the session. At its intraday peak, the stock was more than 190% above its lowest closing level just one month ago.

The parabolic surge leaves the recently IPO’d firm in an extremely unusual position where all eight of the analysts who have a “buy” rating on the stock also have price targets that are well below where the shares currently trade!

Citi’s Tyler Radke, who more than doubled his price target on the shares to $94 from $43, has a “hold” rating to go along with that top price target. DA Davidson’s Gil Luria, who downgraded CoreWeave to “underperform” from “neutral” following its quarterly results and said the company is “not worth scaling,” has the low price target of $36.

The stock is one of the hottest new toys in the retail trading call casino these days, with bullish options activity far exceeding volumes in bearish bets.

SpaceX gets a wave of bullish ratings from Wall Street analysts

SpaceX received more than a dozen positive analyst calls on Tuesday — including from major Wall Street banks — as they initiate coverage on Elon Musk’s space and AI company.

SpaceX went public on June 12 at a $2.2 trillion valuation, the largest debut in history. While the company hasn’t yet posted a profit, it seems to have convinced Wall Street that it will get there and grow its valuation on the way.

Of the at least 17 analysts that gave a rating on Tuesday, all but one gave it a “buy” or “outperform” rating. MoffettNathanson was "neutral."

The ratings come as SpaceX joined the Nasdaq 100 index, a benchmark tech-heavy basket of companies that underpins millions of portfolios. The inclusion adds built-in demand for the stock from index funds and ETFs.

Still, SpaceX fell more than 5% on Tuesday amid a broader sell-off, and is currently effectively flat from its opening price of $150 a share.
