Shares of Nebius Group NV (NASDAQ:NBIS) jumped 13.90% on Tuesday after Citron Research highlighted the company’s potential to become the next artificial intelligence sensation on Wall Street, citing its deep ties with NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ:NVDA) and perceived undervaluation compared to competitor CoreWeave.
What Happened: The surge followed Monday’s announcement of a $700 million private placement financing round, backed by Nvidia, Accel, and accounts managed by Orbis Investments. The deal involves issuing 33,333,334 Class A shares at $21 each, representing a 3% premium over the volume-weighted average price since Nasdaq trading resumed.
