  • CoreWeave Founders Sell $2.3 Billion in Stock Amid Strong Post-IPO Performance
    June 9, 2026, 6:29 AM EDT. CoreWeave Inc., an AI data center operator, has seen its stock price more than double since its March 2025 IPO. However, the company's executives, including billionaire co-founders Michael Intrator, Brannin McBee, and Brian Venturo, have sold over $2.3 billion of shares since the lockup period expired in August. Venturo alone sold over $1.1 billion, making him the second-largest insider seller this year. These sales were made under pre-arranged 10b5-1 trading plans designed to prevent insider trading accusations. Despite this selling, the founders still hold about 18% of shares. Major investor Magnetar Financial also sold $5.5 billion in stock, halving its stake. Analysts note these sales raise concerns but consider the stock undervalued amid strong AI infrastructure demand.
