CoreWeave credit stress hits leveraged NeoCloud firms
A commentary from the WeChat account 格隆, authored by 弗雷迪, reported that highly leveraged US AI infrastructure stocks sold off sharply on October 14. CoreWeave fell 15% in one session, while Nebius and IREN also posted double-digit declines.

The commentary also highlighted a distinction between highly leveraged NeoCloud providers and traditional cloud giants whose capital spending can be funded from operating cash flow.
