Oppenheimer holds $150 CoreWeave target, sees bond selloff as overdone
Oppenheimer maintains a $150 price target for CoreWeave (CRWV), despite a 37% stock decline, arguing bond selloff misrepresents financial risk.

CoreWeave's long-term GPU contracts and potential free cash flow under stress scenarios support the view. Oppenheimer expects Q3 2026 revenue growth of 160% YoY. Shares closed at $56.43.
