Daily closes. Earnings/event dots are placed inline.
Industries move in repeating boom-and-bust cycles. This shows where this stock’s industry sits in that cycle, stage by stage (recovery → expansion → supercycle → steady → deceleration → contraction), from its fundamentals (orders, revenue, capital spending), not the stock’s price.
A booming industry is a tailwind for the names in it; a contracting one is a headwind. Companies in the same industry tend to rise and fall together with the cycle, the way a tide lifts and lowers every boat in the harbor at once, so a large part of a stock’s swing can come from where its industry sits rather than from the company itself. It’s context for reading the company’s results, not a buy/sell call. Full explanation →
Systems Software: fringe margins under pressure (2q confirmed)
The stage band shows the industry’s cycle over the chart’s timeline (each color a stage); a ▼ marks a quarter its growth inflected down — amber is an unconfirmed watch, red is confirmed the next quarter. Use “Overlay cycle on chart” to tint the price chart by stage. The industry’s fundamentals, not a signal on this stock.
The reason to own it still holds.

View ManagementThis stock is highly volatile — it swings about 4% on a typical day and fell roughly 57% in its worst 12-month stretch.
View RiskCoreWeave's growth depends on expanding its AI infrastructure capacity. The company expects $12.4 billion to $13.2 billion in revenue for 2026. Revenue more than doubled recently due to strong AI demand. It trades at 6.5× price-to-sales, above the 4.2× peer median. This suggests the price reflects the growth we forecast. The risk lies in its high debt of $35 billion. Our model puts the next-quarter miss probability at 20%. Peer multiples imply a price about 27% above where it trades. This read is provisional.

A consensus fair price across 3 valuation methods, at three horizons. As of 2026-09-14. Estimates are diagnostics, not price targets. Short-horizon estimates are close to coin-flips, so confidence is a method-agreement read, not a prediction.

A price-focused, side-by-side fair-value read versus Systems Software — fair value, gap to price, and forward P/E.
Our valuation methods disagree too much on this name right now. Rather than print a number we don't believe, we're holding it back until they converge.
