Nebius Stock Fell 12% in a Day as CoreWeave’s Debt Scare Spread. Here’s Why Its Balance Sheet Isn’t CoreWeave’s Yet

Nebius Group (NBIS) stock fell 12.18% to $165.47 on October 16, 2026, amid debt concerns in AI cloud stocks. The drop was linked to CoreWeave's (CRWV) debt load, though Nebius' balance sheet remains healthier.

The company's Q3 report is expected between October 22 and November 10, with consensus revenue estimates at $905 million.

Nebius stock breaks below $200 as CoreWeave’s debt scare spreads

Nebius Group (NBIS) fell 10.1% to $186.01 on October 14, 2026, breaking its $200 support level. The decline was driven by fears of excessive debt in the AI sector, sparked by CoreWeave (CRWV) bonds yielding near 15%. Nebius's funding costs may rise due to this market sentiment. The company's stock trades at 38x trailing sales and 7x forward sales, with analysts' price targets ranging from $84 to $410.

Insider selling and a bearish stance from short-seller Michael Burry also contributed. The broader tech sector selloff, driven by higher Treasury yields, added pressure.
