CoreWeave Stock Trending Lower as Meta Cloud Threat, DeepSeek Chip Concerns Mount

CoreWeave Inc. (NASDAQ:CRWV) has had a rough few weeks, with shares down approximately 30% over the past month and 11% over the past week amid a series of developments raising questions about the AI infrastructure buildout.

Meta AI Plans Spark CoreWeave Fears

The most significant overhang has been Bloomberg‘s report that Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:META) is developing plans to build a cloud infrastructure business to sell access to AI computing power and models to outside customers. If one of the world’s largest AI spenders begins selling excess compute rather than just consuming it, the competitive landscape for dedicated AI infrastructure providers like CoreWeave changes materially, raising fears that deep-pocketed tech giants could compress pricing across the neocloud sector.

Chip Supply Concerns

Adding to the pressure, Reuters reported that Chinese startup DeepSeek is developing its own AI inference chip — a development that, if successful, could reduce demand for the type of compute infrastructure that neoclouds like CoreWeave are racing to build.
