# CoreWeave signs multi-year AI infrastructure deal with Hudson River Trading

> CoreWeave has signed a multi-year deal to supply GPU compute to Hudson River Trading, one of the most secretive and sophisticated quantitative trading firms on Wall Street. The agreement, announced in late August, puts CoreWeave's cloud squarely inside the financial sector, where AI models increasingly drive trading strategies and demand serious hardware to run. It is a telling customer. Quant firms like HRT do not outsource compute casually, since they obsess over speed and control, so a decision to lean on CoreWeave signals that even the most demanding buyers cannot build fast enough on their own. For CoreWeave, it broadens a customer base beyond the AI labs that made its name. The deal fits a busy stretch for the company, which closed a 2.6 billion dollar loan facility in August backed by its AI and fintech customers and saw its shares climb to their highest levels since June. The bigger picture is a GPU cloud provider maturing from a bet on the AI boom into infrastructure that hedge funds and trading desks now treat as a necessity.
