Global crude prices are nearing their highest levels in five months as renewed Iran tensions stoke inflation concerns. U.S. commercial crude stocks fell by 3.1 million barrels last week, versus analysts' expectation of a 300,000-barrel decline. PG&E's third-quarter earnings fell to $776 million, or 34 cents a share, from $850 million, or 37 cents a year earlier, though it backed full-year guidance. Bloom Energy raised its outlook to full-year adjusted earnings of $3.10 to $3.40 a share after reporting a profit of $250.3 million, and Carrier plans a $600 million Texas plant to make cooling equipment for AI data centers, its biggest-ever investment.

- Here how Husted answered our questions on data centers , Iran war , other issues in U . S . Senate race | Local
In an exclusive interview, Republican incumbent Sen. Jon Husted acknowledged that midterms are tough on the party in power and dismissed polls showing Democrat Sherrod Brown ahead, saying Republicans will win if Ohio voters who backed President Trump two years ago turn out in strong numbers. On data centers, Brown calls Husted the “face of data centers” blamed for soaring utility bills, but Husted says his bill requiring data centers to pay for energy infrastructure passed the House 417-3 before failing in the Senate short of 60 votes. He says decisions about data centers should be made locally. On the Iran war, Husted wants it to end soon on terms favorable to the U.S., and he voted against a resolution directing President Trump to end hostilities, which failed 49-50. A YouGov poll had Brown at 49% and Husted at 45%, but Husted argues earlier polls were wrong, including those ahead of J.D. Vance’s victory.

Gold fell 6.8% in October, dipping below $4,000 to a one-year low, and was also hit as investors sold bullion to cover losses following a retreat in AI-related stocks. Investors are now awaiting U.S. midterm election results, which could shift the outlook for inflation and fiscal deficits.
- South Korea urges exchanges to boost cold storage after Binance hack
South Korea's Financial Services Commission has urged domestic crypto exchanges to hold a larger share of assets in cold wallets after the $6.3 billion attack on Binance's hot wallets last week, although local law already requires at least 80% cold storage. Data from the Financial Supervisory Service show cold wallet ratios at the end of September of 99.17% for Upbit, 94.76% for Bithumb, 85% for Coinone, 82.79% for Digital X and 80.54% for GOPAX. The FSC also urged exchanges to continuously monitor deposits and withdrawals, add incident response staff and set aside extra reserves.

- Match Group Q3 Earnings Call Highlights
Match Group said Tinder's global daily active users returned to year-over-year growth in September for the first time in three and a half years, while declines in monthly active users and payers narrowed in the third quarter. Tinder's monthly active users fell 6% and payers fell 4%, with foreign-exchange-neutral direct revenue down 2%, and full-year 2026 direct revenue is now expected to decline at a low-single-digit rate. Lower-than-expected user givebacks, now about $25 million versus the $60 million previously anticipated, helped drive the improvement. Hinge revenue rose about 19% in the quarter, and the company kept its target of $1 billion in Hinge revenue in 2027. Match generated $832 million of year-to-date free cash flow and deployed $591 million toward buybacks, dividends and employee-equity settlements, but higher Apple and Google app-store fees are expected to pressure adjusted EBITDA margins in 2027.

Apple reported fiscal fourth-quarter revenue of $114.5 billion, up 12% year over year and a September-quarter record, with iPhone revenue up 17% to $57.6 billion and Mac up 24% to $10.8 billion, while iPad fell 10% to $6.2 billion. Full-year revenue reached $478.8 billion, up 15%, and EPS was $8.98, up 20%. Services hit a record $31.6 billion, up 10%, with more than 2.5 billion active devices and more than 1.5 billion paid subscriptions. However, higher memory costs are pressuring margins, and Apple forecast 7%–10% revenue growth and a 45%–46% gross margin for the December quarter.
