- Apple Confirms October 28 ‘Pro And Tell’ Event — First Touchscreen MacBook Pro Expected
Apple has confirmed an Oct. 28 product event in Los Angeles, where it is expected to unveil its first touchscreen MacBook Pro, a major break from its longstanding approach of keeping touch mainly on the iPad. Bloomberg reports the event will also feature a low-end MacBook Pro with an M6 chip, a refreshed iMac and an upgraded iPad mini, with retail sales starting November 6. The launch follows the HomeView smart-home device, an updated Apple TV and the second-generation HomePod mini, while the $1,999 foldable iPhone Duo goes on sale October 23, with shipping estimates pushed into January 2027 after preorders opened. Analysts remain divided: KeyBanc's Brandon Nispel kept an 'Underweight' rating with a $250 target, while Melius's Ben Reitzes kept a 'Buy' rating with a $370 target. AAPL shares are up about 26% so far this year, versus about 17% for the QQQ ETF.
- Apple announces product launch event for Oct. 28. Analysts expect touchscreen laptop
Apple has sent invitations to media and analysts for a product launch event on October 28 in Los Angeles, with the tagline “Pro and tell” suggesting a focus on high-end Pro devices powered by its homegrown chips. Melius Research analyst Ben Reitzes expects new Macs this fall, including a touchscreen notebook, and sees the launch cadence as a meaningful shift from two events a year under CEO John Ternus, who succeeded Tim Cook last month. It will be the third launch under Ternus, after the iPhone event (including the foldable Duo) and a New York event on smart home hubs. Macs made up about 10% of revenue last quarter, and Apple shares are up 26% this year, outperforming the S&P 500.
- Apple's iPhone Duo is proving itself the catalyst that Jim Cramer said it would be
Early demand for Apple's foldable iPhone Duo appears strong: the earliest delivery estimate for the 512GB Night Sky model is January 25, more than three months away, and the phone reaches stores this Friday. Morgan Stanley reported a record 14-week average preorder lead time, the longest of any iPhone model it has tracked in 10 years, pointing to both high demand and limited supply, while iPhone 18 Pro lead times are lower year over year. Melius Research estimates Apple could sell at least 15 million Duo units in fiscal 2027, generating about $40 billion in revenue, and maintains a buy rating with a $370 price target. Apple shares have risen more than 41% from a 52-week low of about $243 to around $342, and are up nearly 26% year to date.

Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META) will report earnings this Wednesday after the market closes.

- An AI bust could come from places investors arent watching , an economist says
Concerns about an AI bubble are growing, and TS Lombard's Dario Perkins warns that investors may be overlooking other risks. Debt among smaller cloud providers, model developers and suppliers could reach $2 trillion by the end of 2027. Perkins does not see this as a systemic risk, but warns that earnings disappointments and canceled orders could ripple through the ecosystem, and that a chip glut could follow over-ordering. Much of the industry's revenue growth still comes from spending within the AI ecosystem rather than from businesses and consumers outside it. He also flags political backlash, noting that ordinary people dislike AI and nearby datacenters, and warns that one high-profile accident could turn AI toxic.
- Yen jumps after JGB auction draws big demand , euro finds relief
The yen rose 0.2% to 158.15 per dollar in Asian trading after a 20-year Japanese government bond auction drew bids of 5.84 times the amount sold, well above the 4.01 times at the previous auction, and the yield fell 6 basis points to 3.71%. A State Street strategist said the record demand suggests sidelined cash is returning and that JGBs are becoming a relative haven from political and fiscal volatility in Europe, particularly France. Anti-government protests in France prompted curfews in several cities, while Italy said it would send 500 troops after two days of unrest, and the euro rallied 0.2% to $1.1234. Elsewhere, bitcoin slipped 0.3% to $81,674.25 and ether edged down 0.2% to $2,393.21.
- Unemployment rate dips to 4 . 7 % - but vacancies hit five - year low
Vacancies fell by 21,000 to 691,000 in the three months to September, the biggest drop since the three months to March and the lowest since July to September 2014 outside the pandemic, while unemployment dipped in the three months to August. Payroll numbers were down 66,000 over the year to September. The ONS said the fall was mainly among smaller firms struggling with higher labour costs, following rises in employer national insurance, the minimum wage and workers' rights. A CBI survey found labour costs and regulations were making it harder to create jobs, and firms urged the Chancellor not to add to their burden in the October 28 Budget. ICAEW's Suren Thiru said the labour market is 'running on idle' and unemployment could climb above 5 per cent, while Shadow Chancellor Andrew Griffith blamed Labour's 'Jobs Tax' and red tape.
- CNBC Daily Open: Tech rebounds in the U.S., but Asia isn’t buying it yet
U.S. tech stocks rebounded as the Nasdaq Composite rose more than 1% on Monday, with Nvidia up 1.4% and Tesla up 3.8%. In Asia, however, tech shares fell on Tuesday, with South Korea's Kospi down over 4% and Japan's Nikkei 225 down 1.6%. Nvidia also unveiled plans to back four German AI startups as part of its nearly $10 billion European investment commitment. Jenny Lee of Granite Asia said Asian companies are reaching IPOs much sooner, often at four to five years old, while Jio Platforms' Indian IPO saw its anchor investor quota oversubscribed more than 30 times, aiming to raise up to 302 billion rupees ($3.2 billion). In Singapore, several agricultural stocks fell after Senior Minister K Shanmugam warned that companies would not escape responsibility for possible roles in the haze, noting seven firms had been questioned by the Singapore Exchange.
- NiSource (NI) Stock Looks Overvalued Against Its Dividend Outlook
NiSource has nearly doubled shareholders' money over the past five years, delivering a 97.6% total return, which raises the question of whether dividends can justify the current share price. The article highlights a new 20-year energy agreement with Microsoft, including customer-funded grid upgrades and long-term electric service for data centers, which may affect future capital needs and cash-flow visibility. Using a Dividend Discount Model with inputs of about $1.35 dividend per share, roughly 9.07% return on equity, a payout ratio slightly above 61%, and implied dividend growth of about 3.5%, the estimated intrinsic value sits meaningfully below the current share price of $41.95. The model still does not bridge that gap, suggesting income investors are paying a premium for a relatively steady payout with modest assumed growth.
