As Personal AI Agents Take Off, DeepLumen Helps Merchants Turn AI into a New Sales Channel

According to a DeepLumen press release, Agentic Page has been installed by nearly 2,000 Shopify merchants, almost double the 1,000-merchant milestone announced in August. The product makes commercial information such as pricing, inventory and policies accessible to AI systems and tracks orders attributed to AI referrals, with some merchants receiving their first AI-attributed order within 24 hours of going live. The article cites Meta's Muse, which can make purchases with user approval and has expanded connections to Shopify's catalog, Shop Pay and PayPal. Agentic Page is free to install through the Shopify App Store, and DeepLumen charges an agreed commission only on attributable AI orders. The company says it plans to introduce products for WooCommerce, Amazon and independent commerce sites.

  • Magnificent 7 Earnings Preview: Meta & Tesla Take Center Stage This Week

    Meta Platforms (META) and Tesla (TSLA) are set to report third-quarter results on Wednesday, October 21, after the market close, and both could influence the tech sector after a recent pullback. Zacks estimates Meta's Q3 revenue will rise more than 23% year over year to $63.24 billion, while earnings are projected to fall nearly 10% to $6.54 per share. Investors will focus on whether heavy AI spending can pay off, given free cash flow of just $784 million in Q2 and 2026 CapEx guidance of $130-$145 billion. Tesla delivered 486,532 vehicles in Q3, beating expectations of roughly 462,000 but down 2% from a year earlier; the Zacks consensus expects earnings to fall 12% to $0.44 per share and revenue to dip 1% to $27.78 billion. Attention will also be on automotive margins, the energy business, and progress on robotaxi and Optimus.

  • “Suddenly Meta Is in Second Place” in AI, and Unlike OpenAI It Doesn’t Need the Money

    Meta has launched Muse Wonder and Muse Wonder Full, which it calls its most capable AI models yet, and Dragonfly's Haseeb Qureshi said the release puts Meta in second place. Meta has not set API pricing yet and the models are only available within its own products, while the article argues that ad revenue lets Meta price aggressively in a way OpenAI and Anthropic cannot. Meta's operating margin was 41.4% in 2025, and its $116 billion in operating cash covered $69.7 billion of capex, but 2026 capex guidance of $115 billion to $135 billion could absorb most of that cash. The article also cites a Financial Times report that OpenAI expects to burn $278 billion of cash from 2026 through 2030. The main uncertainty is whether Meta's eventual pricing will be low or premium.

  • Can Meta's Fiber Partner Corning Capitalize On Rising AI Fiber Prices?

    Prices for specialized AI data-center optical fiber are forecast to average more than five times their 2025 levels this year, and Corning has a supply agreement with Meta worth up to $6 billion. Its Optical Communications sales rose 32% to $2.07 billion in the second quarter, while segment net income surged 77% to $438 million. CEO Wendell Weeks said higher fiber prices are not the main driver of profitability; higher-value connectivity products are. TrendForce forecasts a global fiber shortage of 180 million fiber-kilometers this year, with capacity utilization at 92% and inventories at one month's supply, while expansion takes 18 to 24 months. Despite strong demand, Corning shares have lost roughly half their value since a June record high, though UBS, Citi and Bernstein have set price targets ranging from $140 to $220.

  • AI Trade Is at a Critical Moment As Rising Rates Threaten a Capex Slowdown

    James Russo, a portfolio manager at AllianceBernstein, says the AI trade is at a “critical moment” as corporate bond rates rise, making companies less willing to borrow for AI spending and putting AI infrastructure stocks in a perilous position. Causes include surging Treasury yields driven by oil prices, inflation concerns and ballooning government debt, along with heavy borrowing to fund the AI buildout. Bond yields on CoreWeave hit 15% last week amid concerns about its debt levels. Russo expects a significant slowdown in capex growth in 2027 and further deceleration in 2028, with hyperscalers estimated to spend $725 billion in 2026 and potentially up to $1.2 trillion. Upcoming third-quarter earnings reports from hyperscalers could reveal changes in their capex plans.

  • Roblox Is Now Down 38% in 2026: Is RBLX Stock Dead Money or Poised for a Comeback?

    Roblox stock is down 38% year to date to $50.41, with a late-September court ruling letting a Los Angeles County child exploitation lawsuit proceed and a Jefferies downgrade to Underperform adding pressure. Jefferies argued the rally after the Q2 report priced in too much bookings growth, which rose only 8% to $1.6 billion in Q2 even as daily active users grew 10% to 123 million. Safety changes, including a mandatory age check, had already led Roblox to cut its full-year revenue growth forecast to 20% to 25% earlier this year. For Q3 2026, Roblox forecasts a year-over-year bookings decline of 14% to 18%. Take-Two (down 20%) and GameStop (up 31%) year to date suggest the pressure is specific to Roblox, and the article frames the key test as whether bookings stabilize while user growth continues.

  • Super Micro (SMCI) Won Over $60 Billion in Orders, Is the Discount Deserved?

    A contractor linked to Super Micro Computer (SMCI) pleaded guilty earlier this month to helping ship servers with advanced Nvidia chips to China, a case prosecutors say involved billions of dollars of U.S. AI technology, though the company says it was not named as a defendant and its operations are unaffected. Sales for the fiscal year ended June reached $39.1 billion, up from $22.0 billion, with CEO Charles Liang citing more than $60 billion in new orders, several hundred added enterprise customers, and a record backlog. Management guides to $65.0 billion to $72.0 billion in fiscal 2027 sales, and sales have grown about 61.5% a year over five years. Gross margin was 10.8% for the full year but rose to 17.5% in the June quarter, with net income of $1,178 million, while the trailing 12-month operating margin was 7.09%. The article notes the stock trades at a much lower multiple of expected earnings than the sector, and that one strong quarter does not yet prove a new margin level.

  • Is Nvidia Stock Really Trading for Just 8 Times 2030 Earnings?

    Nvidia is the market's most valuable company, with a market cap above $5 trillion. It trades at 27 times adjusted trailing earnings, but only about 8 times analysts' estimate for fiscal 2030 earnings, a figure the author stresses is a moving target. Revenue growth accelerated from 56% in Q2 FY 2026 to 106% in Q2 FY 2027, though guidance points to a slight slowdown in the current quarter. The stock trades at 13 times next year's earnings, and the board recently authorized a record $150 billion in share repurchases. The author also acknowledges risks such as slower growth or contracting net margins.

  • California billionaire tax could backfire, Stanford study says

    Stanford economists Benjamin Jaros and Joshua Rauh argue in an NBER working paper that California's proposed one-time 5% tax on billionaire wealth could raise far less than projected and ultimately reduce state revenue. Seven billionaires, including Peter Thiel, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, have publicly left the state, removing about $540 billion, or 30%, of California's billionaire wealth from potential taxation. The authors estimate the measure could generate only about $30 billion, versus the $100 billion projected by proponents, while losing $1 billion to $3.5 billion a year in income tax revenue could leave the state about $39 billion worse off in present-value terms if those losses persist. The measure, Proposition 40, goes to voters next month, and a Citrin-Politico poll found 46% of likely voters in favor and 43% opposed. Supporters, including Nobel laureates Daron Acemoglu and Joseph Stiglitz, argue the tax will fund health care and that California has attracted more venture funding since the proposal was announced.

  • US Orders Civilian Agencies to Rip DeepSeek Out of Government Systems

    The U.S. Department of Homeland Security on Monday ordered civilian federal agencies to remove DeepSeek products and third-party services built on the model from their IT systems, and to stop buying them. The notice warns that using DeepSeek may transfer sensitive data to China and could produce intelligence on U.S. persons and agencies. The Commerce Department, the Navy, and the states of New York, Tennessee and Virginia had already restricted DeepSeek. The FCC votes on October 29 on barring Chinese labs from testing electronics for U.S. use.

  • NVIDIA Stock And 2 Other Undervalued Stocks To Own

    Rising interest rates have pushed down bond prices, with 10-year U.S. Treasuries recording one of their steepest multi-year declines since the 18th century. The article highlights three U.S. stocks that a Simply Wall St cash flow screen considers attractively priced relative to their future cash flow potential: NVIDIA, Wells Fargo and J.B. Hunt Transport Services. NVIDIA generated about US$275.4b from Compute & Networking and US$27.6b from Graphics, with a market cap of US$5,170.6b, and the piece notes that an open-source or cheaper alternative to its CUDA platform could weaken its moat. Wells Fargo, with a market cap of US$251.7b, grew average loans 12% and average deposits 10% year over year in 2Q26 after the removal of its asset cap, while J.B. Hunt, with a market cap of US$21.3b and US$13.3b in revenue, recorded record intermodal volume of over 578,000 loads in Q2 2026.
