Jane Street signs $6 billion AI cloud deal with CoreWeave, boosts stake

  • On Wednesday, quantitative trading firm Jane Street committed $7 billion to CoreWeave, including a $6 billion cloud computing agreement and a $1 billion equity investment at $109 per share.
  • CoreWeave has transformed into a major infrastructure player by specializing exclusively on AI workloads, securing contracts with Meta , OpenAI , and NVIDIA that dwarf its IPO valuation.
  • "Jane Street operates like a frontier lab," said Max Hjelm, senior vice president of revenue at CoreWeave, noting the firm requires massive computational power to refine its complex trading models.
  • By acquiring its $1 billion equity stake, Jane Street became one of CoreWeave's five largest shareholders, aligning its financial interests directly with the continued infrastructure buildout the firm relies upon.
  • As financial firms commit billions to compute infrastructure, industry analysts question whether CoreWeave's long-term contracts will produce returns matching the rapid capital expenditure seen across the sector this year.
