Investors liked that it added customer diversification, especially on the heels of an expanded agreement with Meta that will provide AI cloud capacity through December 2032.While that $21 billion deal helped boost CoreWeave stock, investors are also monitoring the capital costs to provide customers the desired compute capacity. CoreWeave simultaneously announced it will raise $3.5 billion in capital through a convertible debt offering to fund AI infrastructure expansion. That served as a reminder that the company isn’t yet generating cash, let alone profits. That’s a balance investors need to remember when evaluating CoreWeave stock.
