Buying Opportunity in Galaxy Digital and Cipher Digital?

Rosenblatt Securities analyst Chris Brendler thinks the recent selloff in HPC-linked stocks was overdone, nodding his head to two former Bitcoin miners making the pivot into AI Galaxy Digital (NASDAQ: GLXY) and Cipher Digital (NASDAQ: CIFR). GLXY had fallen 22% over the prior two weeks while CIFR dropped 13%, at the time of the notes publication on July 2. Brendler dismissed the fear. 'We view this reaction as overdone,' he wrote, adding that the firm does not view the Meta news 'as a negative demand signal.' Brendler singled out GLXY because its direct exposure to CoreWeave made it vulnerable to read-throughs from the Meta headline. Galaxy's Helios data center campus expanded its CoreWeave partnership in 2025 by an additional 133 megawatts of critical IT load, leaving CoreWeave committed to the site's entire 800-megawatt gross-power approval. That concentration explains why hyperscaler headlines now move the stock almost as much as bitcoin-specific catalysts. Brendler said the 13% pullback widened a 'persistent valuation disparity' he had already identified in the name. The note framed the decline as a cheaper entry into the miner-to-HPC pivot theme and said it did not signal deteriorating fundamentals. CIFR shares were trading around $22.84 as of the note's publication.
