Why Is NBIS Stock Falling Today Despite Rosenblatt’s Buy Rating?

Rosenblatt initiated coverage of Nebius (NBIS) with a $304 price target and a Buy rating, citing strong AI infrastructure growth. Despite this, NBIS stock fell 1.4% in pre-market trading due to broader market pressures and concerns about peer Iren's data centers. Analyst John McPeake estimates Nebius has about a sixth of CoreWeave's active power and projects significant revenue growth.
