IREN Limited shares are in focus this week after Nvidia announced it would invest up to $2.1 billion in a deal to deploy 5 gigawatts of AI infrastructure globally. This massive strategic partnership with the leading GPU manufacturer has propelled the energy company into the spotlight of the AI infrastructure sector.
The equity is currently trading near $56, marking a rise of nearly 54% over the past six months. Consequently, it has climbed from a yearly low of $31 to a high of $62 in 2024 alone.
This performance follows an extraordinary surge of over 700% from May last year when it traded at $6. However, the company’s business model shifted from providing power to Bitcoin miners to supplying energy for AI data centers.
Now, analysts are examining when IREN stock might reach triple digits. It needs to nearly double from its current price to hit the $100 target, a feat it has approached before during its rapid ascent.
Leading brokerage firm Zachs has given a bullish price target for IREN stock following Nvidia’s deal. Their projection suggests the stock could breach $100 and reach a high of $125, representing an uptick of approximately 120%.
An investment of $1,000 could therefore turn into nearly $2,200 if this prediction proves accurate. Meanwhile, around ten Wall Street analysts have issued a strong buy rating for the stock, with three others recommending a hold.
This development indicates IREN could potentially mirror the growth of other AI-infrastructure firms. Therefore, being valued below $100 makes it comparatively cheaper than many peers in the AI-based company landscape.
