Nebius Group stock is taking a hit today. What’s behind NBIS decline?

What Is Driving Nebius Group (NBIS) Stock Today?The latest push-pull in NBIS has been tied to rotation risk: last week’s "risk-off" move hit high-multiple AI infrastructure stocks, and NBIS was also in focus after announcing a roughly $775 million senior secured debt facility led by MUFG and backed by deployed GPU infrastructure. Management has pitched the financing and an "asset-light" partnership model as a way to scale AI capacity while targeting "strong and durable margins."Nebius is also trading in the slipstream of hyperscaler capex headlines after Alphabet last week lifted its full-year 2026 capex target to $195 billion to$205 billion (from $180 billion to $190 billion) and flagged heavier third-party capacity use in the third quarter, a setup that can tighten the supply/demand narrative for independent GPU cloud providers. Critical Levels To Watch For NBIS StockMACD is the cleaner momentum lens right now: it’s below its signal line and the histogram is negative, pointing to fading upside pressure unless buyers can reclaim that baseline.
