Morgan Stanley analysts have pushed back against the bear case for Nebius, arguing that a 35 percent stock decline was an overreaction to concerns about the AI infrastructure company's growth trajectory. Nebius, which operates GPU cloud and AI compute infrastructure, has been under pressure from investors skeptical of its ability to compete with larger hyperscalers. Morgan Stanley's defense of the stock centers on the company's differentiated compute capacity and customer pipeline.
