IREN Limited (NASDAQ:IREN) runs renewable energy-powered data centers and engages in Bitcoin mining, with operations structured as a vertically integrated platform. The company focuses on combining sustainable infrastructure with digital asset mining. On September 25, Bernstein analyst Gautam Chhugani raised the stock price target to $75 from $20 and reiterated an Outperform rating.

The firm highlighted IREN Limited’s (NASDAQ:IREN) shift from traditional Bitcoin mining toward building its own AI cloud vertical, requiring heavy capex, GPU leverage, and execution in a competitive space dominated by neocloud leaders with hyperscaler and NVIDIA ties. Bernstein noted that it had previously underestimated these capabilities, but now sees enough progress to take the AI cloud business seriously and support a re-rating case.

While we acknowledge the risk and potential of IREN as an investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns and doing so within a shorter time frame.
