Nebius Group (NASDAQ: NBIS) has been winning big from the artificial intelligence (AI) data center boom, and that's not surprising, as the company plays a central role in the AI infrastructure ecosystem. Nebius is a neocloud provider that builds dedicated AI data centers equipped with powerful graphics cards. Not surprisingly, Nebius is growing at a stunning pace, as hyperscalers and AI companies have been lining up to rent cloud computing capacity from the company. Investors, however, may be wondering if it still makes sense to buy this cloud computing stock following its stunning rally this year. After all, Nebius is now trading at 80 times sales. That's quite exorbitant compared to the tech-focused Nasdaq Composite index's price-to-sales ratio of 5.6. However, a closer look at Nebius' revenue pipeline, business model, and the overlooked opportunities it can capitalize on indicates that it is still undervalued. Continue reading

In 2002, Scott McNealy, then CEO of Sun Microsystems, reflected on his company's valuation during the dot-com peak in an interview with BusinessWeek. Sun had traded at about 10x revenue. McNealy walked through what that price implied. To give investors a 10-year payback at 10x revenue, he would have to pay out 100% of revenues as dividends for a decade. That assumed zero cost of goods sold, which ...

McNealy walked through what that price implied. To give investors a 10-year payback at 10x revenue, he would have to pay out 100% of revenues as dividends for a decade. That assumed zero cost of goods sold, which is very hard for a computer company. It assumed zero expenses across 39,000 employees. It assumed no

US stocks may be vaulting from one record to the next , but Wall Street analysts covering them are in no rush to keep up. Researchers who follow individual companies and almost always predict shares will go up are slashing their views on S&P 500 Index firms at a faster pace than raising them for the second time since the war in Iran began, data compiled by Bloomberg Intelligence show. In the broader Russell 3000 Index , the proportion of members with a “buy” recommendation is almost exactly where it was four years ago and is well below a dot-com peak, according to data from Jefferies LLC. Whatever the exact reason behind the newfound skepticism is, it’s viewed as a healthy development. From a contrarian perspective, it means sentiment is far from reaching a fever pitch that often heralds a top. “I tend to think of sentiment through the lens of ‘are there more incremental buyers or sellers?’” said Andrew Greenebaum , senior vice president of equity research product management at Jefferies. “The sell side doesn’t show the signs of buying in — yet.” The S&P 500 has posted record after record since mid-April amid hopes for a peace deal in Iran and enthusiasm around the profit potential of artificial intelligence technology. The index has advanced for nine consecutive weeks, gaining 20% during that time, in what’s been the strongest winning streak of this length in 75 years, according to LPL Financial. While overbought conditions are flashing warning signs and participation in the rally remains narrow, few signs of outright euphoria are in place. The share of Russell 3000 constituents with a buy recommendation is sitting at 82%, slightly above the long-term average but below the 90% peak at the turn of the century, per Jefferies data. Over at Bank of America Corp. , a contrarian indicator that tracks strategists’ recommended allocation to stocks remains in “neutral territory” despite rising over the last month. The reading is still below levels reached in prior peaks and...
