Cramer Warns AI Data Center Stocks Face Earnings Test as CPI Could Trigger Another Fed Rate Hike

3 articles · Updated · CNBC · Nov 6

Summary

  • Next week’s results from CoreWeave and Nebius could become the clearest near-term test for the battered AI infrastructure trade after a volatile election week and Wall Street’s worst session in 19 months.
  • Cramer said investor doubts still center on data-center spending and financing, especially at heavily indebted CoreWeave, where markets will look for a credible expansion plan, manageable borrowing costs and projects delivered on time and on budget.
  • Tuesday’s CPI and Friday’s PPI could add another layer of pressure, with Cramer saying stubborn inflation may push Fed Chair Kevin Warsh toward another rate hike after September’s first increase in three years.
  • Constellation Energy, Cisco Systems and Applied Materials also report, but Cramer said sentiment toward those names may hinge first on whether neocloud earnings restore confidence in the broader AI build-out.
