Nvidia Deepens CoreWeave Stake As Valuation Lags Analyst Target

June 01, 2026

Nvidia has nearly doubled its stake in CoreWeave, deepening its investment in the AI infrastructure provider.
The move comes alongside Nvidia’s multibillion dollar photonics deal with Coherent, aimed at supporting AI data center build outs.
The expanded relationship tightens the link between CoreWeave’s cloud platform and Nvidia’s GPU and networking ecosystem.

For investors watching NasdaqGS:CRWV, Nvidia’s larger ownership position arrives as CoreWeave trades around $109.53 per share. The stock is up 3.8% over the past week and 38.1% year to date, while the return over the past year is slightly down at 1.6%, which highlights how recent momentum contrasts with a flatter one year picture.

The new capital and technology alignment with Nvidia may influence how CoreWeave prioritizes capacity, product development, and its reported backlog, especially as competition in AI infrastructure intensifies. Readers may want to track how management frames this partnership in future updates, including any commentary on access to GPUs, photonics enabled networking, and long term capital needs.

Key Considerations

📊 Nvidia increasing its stake and tying in photonics with Coherent tightens CoreWeave's position in Nvidia's AI data center stack, which could matter for long term demand visibility.
📊 Watch how management talks about GPU access, capital needs and any effect on revenue or backlog alongside the current US$109.53 price and analyst target of US$138.56.
⚠️ Forecast earnings are expected to decline by an average of 5.2% per year over the next 3 years, so stronger Nvidia ties do not remove execution and profitability risk.

A landmark settlement is meant to punish Meta (META). If the 1998 tobacco deal is any guide, it might protect it.

Worth looking at what previous legal action actually did to Meta rather than reaching for tobacco. The FTC's record five billion dollar privacy fine in 2019 was met with the stock rising, because it came in below fears and removed an open question. GDPR was designed to constrain large platforms and increased their share of the European ad market, because compliance cost fell hardest on small intermediaries. The FTC's antitrust case, the one that could genuinely have broken the company up, was decided in Meta's favour last November. The only thing that ever meaningfully hurt the business was Apple changing a tracking default, and Meta out-spent that too, while the ad-tech firms that could not afford to rebuild disappeared. The pattern is not that Meta survives regulation. It is that regulation keeps costing its smaller competitors more.
