    Assessing Valuation After Recent Share Price Surge and Major HPC Contract

    Core Scientific (CORZ) has drawn attention recently, with shares moving higher over the past week. Investors are taking note of the company’s ongoing performance and looking for signals in its recent market activity.

    See our latest analysis for Core Scientific.

    Core Scientific’s momentum is building again after a sharp pullback last month. The share price has jumped 14.7% over just the last week as investors grow more optimistic. However, it is worth noting that while the 90-day share price return stands at a healthy 17.7%, the total shareholder return over the past year is still negative. This suggests there is both recovery and risk in the story.

    If you’re interested in spotting other shifts in the market, now’s the time to expand your discovery and explore fast growing stocks with high insider ownership

    With shares still trading at a notable discount to analyst price targets and recent volatility in mind, the key question now is whether Core Scientific offers genuine value here or if the market is already anticipating the company’s future growth.

    Core Scientific’s last close of $16.89 sits notably below the most popular narrative’s fair value estimate of $27.65, suggesting sizable room for upside if narrative assumptions play out. This wide gap has market watchers asking what could drive such a re-rating and whether projected catalysts can push shares closer to the narrative’s target.

    Core Scientific secured a major HPC contract with CoreWeave, with a total revenue potential of $8.7 billion over a 12-year term, significantly boosting future revenue compared to their current levels. The company is expanding HPC infrastructure capacity by reallocating resources from Bitcoin mining, adding new sites, and extending existing ones, expecting to drive future revenue growth as data center needs rise.

But which surprising growth bets, margin forecasts, and future profit multiples generate such a premium fair value? Dive in and discover the driving forces analysts are banking on. These numbers could change how you view Core Scientific’s potential.

    Result: Fair Value of $27.65 (UNDERVALUED)

  • French National Quantum Update: November 2025

    French National Quantum Update: November 2025

    Executive Summary

    Local power, global reach. France’s quantum sector moved into November with strong push toward global collaborations and a clear push toward industrial deployment. Policy momentum centered on a Franco-German forum in Paris and Massy, where QUTAC, Le Lab Quantique, Quandela, CEA, and Fraunhofer — backed by both embassies — gathered more than 60 leaders from government, research, and industry. The discussions reflected a coordinated effort to shape Europe’s quantum roadmap and strengthen cross-border standards and applications.

    French quantum companies remained highly visible in global markets. Quandela and NVIDIA reported a 20,000× acceleration in spin–photon simulations using CUDA-Q, supporting the broader shift toward photonic links for distributed quantum systems. Pasqal dominated business headlines with a series of international moves: deploying Saudi Arabia’s first quantum computer with Aramco; announcing a $52 million expansion in South Korea backed by national and municipal partners; and forming a strategic partnership with LG Electronics, including an equity investment. Pasqal also became the first QPU offered on OVHcloud’s new Quantum Platform, a milestone for European Quantum-as-a-Service infrastructure.

    Activity continued across France’s hardware, semiconductor, and hybrid-HPC stack. SEALSQ and Quobly launched a collaboration linking secure semiconductor architectures to scalable quantum systems. Quobly and QPerfect released a GPU-accelerated version of the QLEO emulator at SC25. Alice & Bob gained recognition as part of Sifted’s Future 50, and deepened technical ties with NVIDIA through NVQLink. The company also advanced hybrid workflows with the STFC Hartree Centre by integrating cat-qubit systems with SLURM, the dominant HPC scheduling tool.

    Education and diplomacy rounded out the month. Université Paris Cité hosted a quantum-programming session for students and early-career researchers, while FSQS 2025 produced new France–Singapore agreements across algorithms, energy-efficient hardware, and photonics.

    Building Today the Quantum Future of Europe For and With the Industry 

    A group of Franco-German willing players made of the Quantum Technology and Application Consortium QUTAC, Le lab Quantique, Quandela, CEA and Fraunhofer, with the support from the French embassy in Germany and the German embassy in France, took part in the French German Dialogue of Quantum Technology Players took place in Paris and Massy (France). This event brought together more than 60 selected experts, managers and decision-makers from innovation, corporates, research and public authorities from France and Germany.

    Quandela and NVIDIA Accelerate Quantum Spin-Photon Simulation by 20,000x with CUDA-Q

    As quantum processors scale, they will need to be connected through photonic links. Photons are the only practical carriers of quantum information beyond the local chip: they are fast, can travel long distances, and preserve coherence even at room temperature. This vision of distributed quantum computing makes it essential to accurately model the gates and protocols that rely on photons to connect distant qubits.
