Nvidia's $4B+ Nebius Stake Sends Neo-Cloud Stock Surging

At 0:50 · chapter starts 0:37

In a disclosure that rattled markets, Nvidia revealed it now holds 22.3 million Class A shares of Nebius, a 9.3% passive stake worth more than $4 billion. The neo-cloud company's stock responded immediately, surging 18.8% on the news — a dramatic single-session move that reflects just how closely investors are watching Nvidia's every capital allocation decision. This isn't Nvidia's first move on Nebius: the chipmaker already made a $2 billion strategic investment in March, meaning its total exposure to the company now runs well north of $6 billion. The pattern suggests Nvidia is quietly building a significant position in the emerging neo-cloud space, likely to secure AI compute capacity and infrastructure partnerships outside the traditional hyperscaler ecosystem. For Nebius, the Nvidia endorsement is transformative — turning a relatively obscure infrastructure play into a name investors are scrambling to learn.
