February 13 - Bloomberg (Carmen Reinicke): "For three years, AI was the stock market's savior. Suddenly, it's become a marauder, and virtually no corner of the equity market looks safe from its impact. Just in the past 10 days, investors have delivered swift routs to companies toiling in industries as disparate as logistics, real estate, software, private credit, insurance and wealth management. In each case, the release of a new artificial intelligence tool, most famously from Anthropic PBC but also from small, lesser-known startups, prompted a rapid reassessment of business prospects… 'All we have done and seen in the past few weeks is the market torch the perceived AI losers. Obviously the definition of AI losers is changing almost daily to the point where you can't track it via themes or baskets,' said David Wagner, portfolio manager at Aptus Capital Advisors. The one constant is that AI applications have become the market's bogeyman, capable of erasing billions in value in a matter of hours as investors question the very viability of large swaths of the corporate landscape… 'The perception is spreading like a wildfire, and it's spreading horizontally,' Joseph Shaposhnik, portfolio manager at ...

NicoElNino/iStock via Getty Images Red-hot demand for GPU computing capacity led Nebius ( NBIS ) to report record fourth-quarter results on Thursday that nonetheless still missed consensus estimates on the top and bottom lines. Nebius grew its annual recurring revenues to a record $1.25B, which marked a $150M beat of its high-case ARR guidance for the year. The company's revenues and EBITDA are both surging, and Nebius reached a vital inflection point in its business in Q4: adjusted EBITDA profitability. Despite the weak market reaction on Thursday -- which caused shares of Nebius to rise only 1.3% in an overall weak session for AI stocks -- CapEx trends in the industry are fully intact, which supports a strong buy rating for the company: CapEx spending is expected to surpass $600B this year, driven by hyperscaler-driven spending, and since Nebius has started to execute on its Meta ( META ) deal, I believe the company is set for long-term growth acceleration. I like Nebius as a long-term play on soaring GPU procurement and utilization, and while shares are not cheap, investors have plenty of reasons to stay invested for the long term. Data by YCharts Previous rating I rated shares of Nebius a strong buy in my last coverage in September -- Major ARR Uplift, Path To Profitability, Strong Buy -- because I liked the firm's ramp in the annual recurring revenue business as well as its status as a preferred GPU recipient of Nvidia ( NVDA ). Recent projections for IT spending in 2026 paint a healthy picture for growth, counteracting concerns about an AI bubble. I like that Nebius is improving its profitability and building a broad-based Data Center platform to accelerate its growth in the years ahead. Nebius missed estimates for Q4’25 The GPU-as-a-Service company reported weaker-than-expected earnings on both the bottom and the top lines in the fourth-quarter, despite strong demand for its GPUs. The reason for the top and bottom line miss was extremely high Wall Street expe...
