“Bank of America, which has a buy rating on the cloud-computing name, raised its price objective on shares to $140 from $120.”
DISPUTED
The evidence does not support Bank of America raising the target to $140. One source mentions Evercore ISI raising a target to $150 from $120, and another mentions a different firm lifting a target to $67 from $56. A BofA result is present but it refers to Coca-Cola, not CoreWeave.
