On July 17, Hut 8 fell 5.97% in regular trading, trading at $86.055/share, with turnover of $85.44 million. The stock had already plunged over 10% in the prior session, with selling pressure continuing to intensify.
On the news front, Meta's plan to establish a cloud infrastructure business and sell AI computing power and model access rights continues to weigh heavily on the independent computing power leasing sector. Meta's strategic pivot from a hyperscale demand-side customer to a supply-side competitor has raised market concerns over the medium-to-long-term pricing power of independent operators like Hut 8.
