Nebius falls 10% as company expects increased 2026 capex spend, issues weak outlook

Nebius shares dropped 10 percent following the release of its third quarter financial results. The stock decline occurred even though the company beat third quarter earnings and revenue estimates. Investors reacted negatively to a projected increase in capital expenditure spending for 2026 and a weak business outlook. Analysts noted the heavy spending plans overshadowed the quarterly revenue beat. The drop aligns with a broader sell-off among neocloud providers, contrasting with earlier rallies seen by competitors like CoreWeave amid record overall cloud demand.
