Number of Hedge Fund Holdings in Q4 2025: 54
Computing infrastructure provider Nebius Group N.V. (NASDAQ:NBIS) is one of the top stocks in the market as it is up by 629% over the past year and by 74% year-to-date. Freedom Capital Markets discussed the firm on April 13th. It downgraded Nebius Group N.V. (NASDAQ:NBIS)’s shares to Hold from Buy and raised the share price target to $154 from $108. The financial firm noted that the stock had performed well since it last commented on it and added that the valuation might be stretched over the short term. However, Freedom Capital also increased Nebius Group N.V. (NASDAQ:NBIS)’s revenue and operating income estimates for the years 2026 and 2027. Cramer commented on the firm’s position in the data center and computing infrastructure industry:
“I’ve been focused on these data center winners, and Nebius, NBIS, I saw them last year at the GTC conference that NVIDIA has and I felt badly, I went over there I said how you guys doing, and no one was around. And then this year, well since then, they have won a Microsoft contract, they got a 27 billion dollar Meta contract, so people just are crazy about it and you can see what happens when you have the ability to be able to put up more compute. Now Nebius is a company that is losing money, kind of like CoreWeave. But, like CoreWeave they might just say you know what, what’s the point of making a profit. If you remember Michael Intrator said to me, we can be profitable in three quarters if you want us to. This company is just a rocket ship and I just want to point out, that, it deserves it, it keeps getting contracts. But if someone’s worried, and thinks that these things are going up without profits, there you go, I wouldn’t short or sell this one, no, I wouldn’t.”
Maple Tree Capital was also full of praise for Nebius Group N.V. (NASDAQ:NBIS) in its third quarter 2025 investor letter:
“In Q2 2025, Heartwood sold Krispy Kreme (DNUT) for a 72.4% loss. This created a substantial drag on the fund’s performance. We rotated the small principal left from the sale into Nebius Group N.V. (NASDAQ:NBIS) at a cost basis of $31.35, with shares currently trading for $121.80. The resulting 288% gain has not only fully offset our entire DNUT loss, but has generated incremental outperformance for the fund. This trade now stands as Heartwood’s best ever.”
