AMD shares rose 5.4% on Tuesday afternoon after an expanded AI partnership with Meta Platforms, amid a broader chip-sector rally following Anthropic's IPO filing. Meta has begun installing and testing AMD's Helios rack-scale systems for its next-generation frontier AI models, uses EPYC processors for its Muse personal AI agent, and is integrating Instinct GPUs for recommendation and training workloads. The partners also co-design AMD's upcoming Instinct MI450 architecture, and AMD will commit $1 billion to participate in Meta's equity offering. Anthropic's filing showed accelerated revenue growth despite heavy cash burn, reviving investor appetite for AI infrastructure names.

- Is Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) Cheap As Meta Expands Its AI Partnership?
AMD confirmed that its Helios rackscale systems, EPYC processors and Instinct GPUs are deployed across Meta's AI infrastructure, including the Muse personal agent and related models. The share price is up 158.84% year to date and has returned 118.83% over one year, despite a 4.84% pullback over the past month, with the last close at $578.44. The most followed narrative in the article gives a fair value of $907.32 and frames the stock as 36% undervalued. Another view puts AMD's P/E at 146x, compared with 45.2x for peers and the US semiconductor industry, against a fair ratio of 60.5x. The article notes that the bullish case could weaken if hyperscalers slow AI infrastructure spending or if key customers shift toward in-house or rival chips.
- AMD Jumped 5% and Is Closing In on $1 Trillion Again
AMD rose 5.45% to close at $560.26 on October 27, 2026, after announcing an expanded partnership with Meta Platforms, lifting its market value to $914.61 billion; after hours the stock added another 0.61% to $563.65. According to the report, AMD EPYC processors already power Meta's Muse personal AI agent and Instinct GPUs are in production, while Helios rack-scale systems are still being tested by Meta; a custom Instinct GPU for Meta and the Verano EPYC generation are planned. Those planned products generate no revenue for AMD until they ship to Meta. AMD will also invest in Meta's equity offering, similar to NVIDIA's arrangement. Returning to the $1 trillion mark would require about $612.57 a share, a gain of about 9.3%, and AMD's third-quarter results are scheduled for November 3, 2026.

- AMD To Invest $1B In Meta Stock Offering As AI Partnership Expands — Helios Systems Now Running At Meta
AMD said it will invest $1 billion in Meta Platforms' equity offering, and its Helios systems have been installed and are being tested by Meta ahead of broader deployment. EPYC processors power Meta's Muse AI agent, and AMD's technology also supports the Muse Spark Open and Muse Glimmer models. The developments build on a February agreement under which Meta plans to deploy up to 6 gigawatts of AMD GPUs across multiple generations. Meta raised its Class A common-stock offering to $25 billion from $22.5 billion, priced at $625 per share; together with a 250 million mandatory convertible preferred offering at $50 each, the two offerings total about $37.5 billion, and Nvidia earlier announced a $3 billion investment in the offering. Meta also plans a further share-sale program of up to $60 billion, expected to begin in the first quarter of 2027, which has not yet launched.

- Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) Ties AI Deals To $95 Billion Infrastructure Push
On October 26, 2026, AMD was named among suppliers tied to Meta's plan to raise up to US$95 billion for AI infrastructure, including nonbinding purchase interest in future hardware. AMD also disclosed a collaboration with QuTwo and LeadDesk combining quantum-inspired AI model compression with AMD compute for conversational AI in regulated European sectors. Cloud provider Vultr announced an AI expansion in India, building the country's largest AI supercluster around AMD Instinct MI355X GPUs. The article argues these deals suggest AMD is moving from selling chips to supplying fuller AI infrastructure, and says the key checkpoints are data center margins and the supply of high bandwidth memory and advanced packaging, to be watched in upcoming quarterly reports and 2027 guidance.

- The Force Behind Zelensky Defying Trump's Order
Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said on October 30 that Ukraine resumed drone attacks on three Russian oil refineries and one gas chemical complex, causing light damage to one facility. Presidential adviser Yuri Ushakov said Ukraine was ignoring President Trump's call to stop the attacks and was counting on European support. According to the Wall Street Journal, Ukraine had informally paused attacks on Russian refineries from mid-October under U.S. pressure, out of concern that rising global fuel prices would hurt Washington before the midterm elections on November 3. President Zelensky denied a full halt order, saying the military had only become more cautious. The Kremlin said the attacks would not hinder preparations for talks between Russia, Ukraine and the U.S.
- Michael Burry Is Still Short Palantir. Here's What Its Nov. 2 Report Has to Show.
Michael Burry still holds put options against Palantir, which expire between June and December 2027. The stock closed at a record $209.05 on Oct. 9 and traded near $195 at the time of writing. Guidance calls for third-quarter revenue of $2.160 billion to $2.164 billion, about 83% growth, but Palantir has typically beaten its top guidance by 6% to 7%, which could mean about $2.3 billion. U.S. commercial revenue rose 149% to $764 million in the second quarter, and keeping management's target of at least $3.424 billion for 2026 on track implies about $930 million in the third quarter. The article notes that even a strong report would not make the stock cheap at about 166 times past earnings, though it could make Burry's under-$50 view harder to accept.
- Vietnam City Holds 8.8 Billion Tons of ‘Black Gold,’ 3.6 Billion Tons Lie Less Than 300m Underground
Quang Ninh, which accounts for over 90% of Vietnam's national coal reserves, is estimated to hold 8.8 billion tons of coal, with 3.6 billion tons less than 300 meters deep. Coal was long the province's economic backbone, but the mining share of its economy fell from about 35% in 2010 to 8.11% of GRDP in 2025 as the locality shifted toward green development, services and processing industries. Quang Ninh's economy grew nearly 10% a year on average over 2021–2025 and rose 11.89% in 2025, with GRDP reaching 368,445 billion VND and per-capita GRDP of $10,402. Since September 1, Quang Ninh has officially become the eighth centrally run city of Vietnam, after the National Assembly approved its establishment with all attending delegates voting in favor.
- Amazon Plans to Spend More on AI. Here’s Why the Stock is a Once-in-a-Decade Buy Hiding in Plain Sight.
Amazon reported earnings below estimates and a deeper-than-expected negative free cash flow, while saying it plans to spend “meaningfully more” on AI next year; the stock fell afterward and was down 14% from its August high. AWS revenue grew 39% to $46 billion, and the company kept its capital spending forecast for the year at $220 billion. Trailing 12-month free cash flow was negative $42 billion due to property and equipment purchases. CEO Andy Jassy said AWS, now at a $184 billion annual run rate, could become a trillion-dollar revenue business within five to 10 years; the author argues the worries about AI spending may be overdone and that Amazon is reasonably priced at 30x forward earnings.
- President Donald Trump Claims, "Tariffs Are Making Us Much Richer," but Economists Show They Have Unintended Consequences
President Trump has said tariffs are making the U.S. much richer and bringing in “trillions of dollars,” but the article cites research showing a more complicated picture. The Tax Foundation projects the tariffs will raise $1.426 trillion in revenue over 2026–2035, while also reducing full-time-equivalent employment by 338,000 jobs and cutting GDP by 0.4%. Three New York Fed economists estimate that the 2025 tariffs added 2.9 percentage points to goods price inflation by February 2026, and that without them goods prices would have fallen slightly. They estimate a 10% across-the-board tariff raises consumer goods prices by 2.6% after one year, mostly through pricier imports and partly through higher input costs for U.S. producers.
- Deputy PM: Electricity Prices Expected to Fall 2%, Gasoline Special Consumption Tax Cut to 0%
The government is directing Vietnam Electricity (EVN) to cut costs to lower retail electricity prices by about 2% until March 31, 2027, and plans to cut the special consumption tax on gasoline from 7% to 0% from November to the end of 2026, at a cost of about 4,000 billion VND. Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Van Thang said these measures create about 0.07 percentage points of room to keep inflation within the National Assembly's 4.5% target, while nine-month CPI rose 4.52%. Nine-month GDP grew about 9.01%, but reaching 10% for the full year requires fourth-quarter GDP growth of 12.5%, which the government calls a very big challenge but not impossible. Public investment disbursement exceeded 720 trillion VND as of October 29, above 75% of the plan, and the government has allocated 3.15 million billion VND of the 3.42 million billion VND in medium-term public investment capital approved by the National Assembly.
