Woofun AI reports that CoreWeave is investigating financial derivatives to hedge against potential declines in memory and storage chip prices. The company has entered long-term agreements with manufacturers such as Micron and SanDisk, which include price downside protection for suppliers but expose CoreWeave to costs above market rates if prices fall.

Executives are discussing hedging strategies, including put options, to address the risk of inventory devaluation. These discussions remain in the early stages, and CoreWeave has not yet executed any hedging transactions.
