Revenue shortfall and mining decline offset by rising colocation strength

Core Scientific reported its Q4 2025 financial results, revealing revenue of approximately $79.8 million, which fell short of analyst expectations and marked a 16% year-over-year decline. The quarterly profit of about $216 million was driven by non-cash gains, while losses per share expanded compared to consensus forecasts. Bitcoin mining revenue dropped sharply, but colocation services revenue surged 268% to $31.3 million as the company accelerated its transition toward high-density AI and data center infrastructure. Additional operational developments included expanded sites in Dalton and Hunt County, the acquisition of 175 acres of land for growth, and the sale of 1,924 BTC, though price action has remained under broader selling pressure.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, sees Core Scientific's underperformance as a clear warning. He believes the stock’s technical setup remains weak, trading below key moving averages and showing no sign of momentum. The disappointing Q4 results and widening losses suggest poor execution on fundamentals. Sentiment is negative, with operational updates unable to offset deteriorating mining revenues. "Further declines are likely unless the company quickly reverses its negative trajectory — investors should remain defensive and avoid attempts at bottom-fishing here."

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, sees opportunity despite Core Scientific's volatile session. He highlights the 268% colocation revenue surge and aggressive AI-adjacent expansion as structural positives. The analyst is confident the pivot to high-density infrastructure will drive renewed demand. He views the current pressure as temporary and sees bullish potential above the $17.13 resistance. "I believe the firm’s shift toward AI-enabled services positions it for future growth — investors should watch for a constructive breakout in the near term."

Jainam Mehta, market strategist, notes that CORZ trades precariously close to its MA-200 support. He sees momentum indicators signaling oversold levels, but macro trends and sector risks keep the outlook tentative. Mehta points out that a potential contrarian setup could develop if sentiment stabilizes and technicals confirm. "If $15.72 holds, I would tactically watch for a mean-reversion bounce — otherwise, downside toward $13.21 remains the base case."

Bearish momentum intensifies with weak indicators and oversold readings

CORZ is trading below both its MA-20 and MA-50, only marginally above the MA-200, suggesting sustained short- and medium-term downside momentum, with potential support anchored at the MA-200 ($15.72). Ichimoku analysis points to dynamic resistance near $17.38 and longer-term support in the $15.70 area. Momentum indicators remain weak: the MACD and ADX indicate neutral or subdued trends, while daily RSI (43.64), Stochastic RSI (0.00), and CCI (-86.21) reflect oversold conditions, as does BBP. The Awesome Oscillator signals continued bearishness, and the price trades close to the intraday low ($15.28), reinforcing a bearish session amid moderate volatility.

Last time, analysts noted that Core Scientific, Inc. was trading below its short- and medium-term moving averages and remained in a technical bear trend, with momentum indicators signaling neutral to negative momentum and mild oversold conditions. Immediate resistance is clustered near $17.38, while key support is seen at the MA-200, and trading is expected to consolidate with risks skewed to the downside ahead of earnings.
