CoreWeave’s Jeff Baker, principal accounting officer, sells $407,946 in stock

CoreWeave's Principal Accounting Officer, Jeff Baker, executed a stock sale totaling $407,946 on October 29, 2026. The shares, valued between $61.14 and $61.6933 per share, comprised 258 shares sold at $61.6933 and 6,412 shares at $61.14. These transactions were to meet tax withholding requirements tied to the vesting and settlement of restricted stock units.

Since the sale, CoreWeave's stock has dropped to $54.87, a decline of nearly 60% over the past year. Despite the sale, Mr. Baker also purchased 12,500 shares on the same day, as part of the restricted stock unit settlement. These units grant him the right to receive one share of CoreWeave's Class A Common Stock upon settlement, with vesting occurring in increments throughout the year.

Analysts are closely monitoring CoreWeave as it prepares for its third-quarter earnings report. BofA Securities has maintained a Buy rating, suggesting a price target of $140, while Cantor Fitzgerald remains Overweight with a $176 target. Raymond James and UBS, however, have lowered their price targets to $75 and $105 respectively, expressing concerns about the AI investment landscape and weakening investor confidence. Morgan Stanley has also adjusted its price target to $70, citing financing uncertainties.
