CoreWeave's stock ($CRWV) experienced a notable rebound in early April 2025, surging by 31% following a $40 billion fundraising round by OpenAI. This increase reflects a broader trend of volatility within the AI infrastructure sector, as investors react to the implications of major funding announcements. The stock initially rose by 20% on April 1, 2025, and continued to climb, reaching a peak of 31% later that day. Analysts suggest that the AI trade is regaining momentum, with speculation about hedge funds re-entering the market. The overall venture capital landscape for AI also showed strength, with global funding reaching $113 billion in the first quarter of 2025, bolstered by significant deals like OpenAI's. However, excluding OpenAI's funding, the inflow of capital appears to be slowing, indicating a potential recalibration among investors following a period of rapid growth.
