AI Selloff Returns as Korean IPO Flop Drags CoreWeave, Chip Stocks Lower
CRWV is trading near its 52-week low of $59.25 (1.0% below the low) on elevated volume (3.0× avg).
Summary
A fresh AI-spending scare is hitting the sector again, and CoreWeave is caught in it — the stock is trading near its 52-week low of $59.25, down from a $141.79 high. The trigger was South Korean data-center firm Elice, which debuted overnight with 200% revenue growth and 400x oversubscribed retail demand and still fell 32%, a brutal read on AI sentiment. CoreWeave is falling alongside Oracle, IREN and Marvell, and chip stocks have reversed their brief rebound. The backdrop is already fragile: CoreWeave had to pay over 10% yield on its $2.6B Anthropic-linked loan in July, posted a $626M Q2 net loss on $2.58B revenue, and raised $4.2B in converts plus a 35M-share ATM in September. SpaceX reports after the close — that print is the next real test for the whole AI trade, and CoreWeave will trade off it.
