Highlights

CoreWeave reported a record $99 billion contracted backlog and achieved 112% year-over-year revenue growth in the first quarter.
The company expanded internationally, adding 360 megawatts of data center capacity in Indonesia and secured a multi-year SSD supply deal with Solidigm.
Shares of CoreWeave face short- and medium-term selling pressure, with a 64% probability of moving down to the $74.39 to $98.8 range amid overbought signals.

Operational gains offset by persistent selling despite growth milestones

CoreWeave is scheduled to release its second-quarter 2026 earnings on August 11, following a period of significant operational developments. The company reached a multi-year deal with Solidigm for priority enterprise SSD access and continued its international expansion by adding 360 megawatts of data center capacity in Indonesia. CoreWeave has also reported a record $99 billion contracted backlog and 112% year-over-year revenue growth in the first quarter, though price action has remained under broader selling pressure.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, sees CoreWeave under clear technical pressure. The stock's failure to regain its 50-day and 200-day moving averages confirms ongoing weakness. He notes high volatility and overbought signals in oscillators, with strong seller momentum prevailing. Sentiment has soured despite record backlog and rapid expansion, showing investors remain unconvinced by recent fundamental progress. "Until CoreWeave proves it can sustain growth above resistance levels, caution is warranted and further downside risk remains elevated," Kharitonov says.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, believes CoreWeave’s growth story remains robust. He highlights the record $99 billion contracted backlog, continued international expansion, and multi-year technology partnerships as strong fundamental drivers. The analyst maintains that rapid revenue growth and new infrastructure deals support long-term bullish potential. "With so many growth avenues and momentum from recent deals, I expect further upside as soon as sentiment recovers above the $88.95 mark," says Karapetjanc.

Sholanke Dele, market strategist, remains wary of the current setup. He sees the price slide and heightened intraday volatility as signs confidence is shaky ahead of the next earnings report. Macro risks and risk-off flows remain in control, limiting upside even with strong company headlines. "Unless CoreWeave regains market trust soon, I see limited catalysts to break the current bearish trend," Dele cautions.

Short-term upside challenged by overbought signals and resistance levels

CoreWeave is trading above its 20-day moving average at $78.27, but remains below both the 50-day at $92.82 and the 200-day at $94.09. This structure reflects a short-term upside tilt countered by medium- and long-term selling pressure, with a bearish alignment between the 50-day and 200-day averages. The near-term resistance sits at $88.95, while the closest support is at $85.91. Momentum indicators show a mixed picture: the MACD signal is on a strong sell, the ADX is neutral, and the RSI is moderately elevated and generating a Buy forecast. Both the Stochastic RSI and CCI signal overbought conditions. Bull/Bear Power points to intraday buyer dominance but also indicates overbought risk. The Awesome Oscillator is neutral. On the session, CoreWeave dropped $3.29, or 3.66%, after a downside gap at the open and is trading near the session low with intraday volatility standing at 3.54%. Oscillators and momentum signals reveal prevailing buyer activity but warn of exhaustion.

Earlier, analysts noted that CoreWeave was contending with persistent medium- and long-term bearish pressures despite operational momentum and high-profile partnerships. The latest downside move and continued bearish technical alignment reinforce this cautious outlook, with traders advised to watch the $85.91 support for potential further weakness heading into the upcoming earnings release.
