USD.AI Announces $128.9M GPU Financing Facility, Its Largest to Date

CoreWeave has signed a multiyear agreement with Harell Data, which will use the company's cloud platform to run model training, fine-tuning and inference workloads. Under the deal, the workloads will run on Nvidia A100 and Hopper GPUs through CoreWeave, while Harell said the raw data itself will remain inside its own platform. Harell Data provides proprietary scientific datasets used to train AI models, and its platform lets customers run models against those datasets without receiving direct access to the underlying data. The agreement reinforces CoreWeave's position as a specialized provider of high-performance AI compute and gives investors another data point supporting its push to lift revenue generated from each gigawatt of deployed infrastructure. UBS recently initiated coverage of CoreWeave with a Buy rating and a $120 price target, arguing that revenue per gigawatt could rise from roughly $11 billion currently to more than $15 billion over time. CRWV shares were up about 1% in premarket trading Wednesday, and the stock has gained roughly 20% year to date.

Citi sharply raised its capital-spending forecasts for Alibaba, reiterating a Buy rating and $190 price target as the company targets 20 gigawatts of AI capacity by 2032. Citi analyst Alicia Yap wrote that assuming a 50/50 Capex/Opex partner split at US$30bn per 1GW, the firm lifted its FY27 through FY29 estimated capex to Rmb258bn, Rmb283bn and Rmb282bn. Under those assumptions, external AI cloud revenue could reach $168 billion by fiscal 2033, roughly 40% compound annual growth from fiscal 2026, with a sensitivity range of $126 billion to $210 billion. Alibaba is also broadening its technology push: T-Head unveiled its Zhenwu V900 accelerator and Lingjun Supernode infrastructure to power AliCloud's production-ready agentic cloud platform, and the company is expanding its Qwen model family, including the 2.4-trillion-parameter Qwen3.8-Max, while developing smaller models for cheaper deployment and moving into image, audio and world models. Alibaba shares nevertheless fell 3.7% in premarket trading amid concerns surrounding a reported Chinese government probe.
