Investing.com -- Near-term fundamentals on U.S. self-storage REITs remain soft, pushing its expected earnings recovery out to 2027.

Wolfe said it expects sector earnings growth to be flat in 2026, with more meaningful growth of about 3% to 4% only emerging in 2027.

Storage fundamentals increasingly resemble other commercial real estate segments, with demand tied closely to employment, which remains muted.

Supply is easing but not at historically low levels. One relative positive is low housing turnover, which has weighed on demand but could create easier comparisons if housing mobility improves, though

Wolfe said policy efforts to unlock affordability are unlikely to deliver a quick boost.

Wolfe downgraded Public Storage and CubeSmart to Peer Perform from Outperform, citing modest two-year growth profiles.

It estimates two-year earnings growth of about 2.7% for Public Storage and 1.8% for CubeSmart, below the average growth rate of other REIT sectors it has updated through 2027.

Wolfe upgraded National Storage Affiliates to Peer Perform from Underperform, pointing to guidance that implies narrowing same-store growth gaps versus peers and the potential for stronger earnings growth in 2027, aided by leverage.

The firm said it now has no Outperform ratings in the storage REIT sector, a first during its coverage, despite storage REITs ranking among the best-performing REIT subsectors over the long term. Wolfe attributed that historical performance to disciplined capital spending and management focus on returns, but said valuations now leave little room for disappointment.

Wolfe said sector PEG ratios for 2026 to 2027 do not look attractive based on its updated forecasts. While metrics improve when focused solely on 2027 growth, it warned that recent enthusiasm around a potential housing-driven demand rebound has raised the bar for near-term performance.

Wolfe said a more attractive entry point could emerge later in 2026 if earnings trends stabilize and growth begins to recover as expected.

Investing.com -- CoreWeave (NASDAQ:CRWV) stock jumped 14% Monday after Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) announced a $2 billion investment to expand their AI infrastructure partnership.

Nvidia purchased CoreWeave Class A common stock at $87.20 per share as part of a collaboration to accelerate the buildout of more than 5 gigawatts of AI factories by 2030. The investment demonstrates Nvidia’s confidence in CoreWeave’s business model and growth strategy as a cloud platform built on Nvidia infrastructure.

The expanded partnership will focus on building AI factories using Nvidia’s accelerated computing platform technology, with CoreWeave handling development and operations. Nvidia will leverage its financial strength to help CoreWeave accelerate procurement of land, power, and shell infrastructure.

The companies will also test and validate CoreWeave’s AI-native software and reference architecture, including SUNK and CoreWeave Mission Control, aiming to include these offerings within Nvidia’s reference architectures for cloud partners and enterprise customers.

CoreWeave will deploy multiple generations of Nvidia infrastructure across its platform through early adoption of Nvidia computing architectures, including the Rubin platform, Vera CPUs, and Bluefield storage systems.

"AI is entering its next frontier and driving the largest infrastructure buildout in human history," said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of Nvidia.

Evercore ISI analyst Amit Daryanani noted that the deal expands on the existing relationship between the companies, which includes a Master Services Agreement obligating Nvidia to purchase any unutilized capacity, worth over $6 billion through April 2032.

In an interview with Bloomberg, Huang indicated that the announcement reflects confidence in CoreWeave’s growth and business model while focusing on aligning both companies’ engineering efforts and bringing capacity online.

CoreWeave CEO Mike Intrator stated that the $2 billion investment represents approximately 2% of what CoreWeave plans to spend to bring capacity online.

Daryanani estimates Nvidia will become CoreWeave’s second-largest shareholder at 12-13% of shares outstanding following the deal. The analyst maintained an Outperform rating on CoreWeave with a $160 price target.
