- SpaceX Surges on Solid Q3 Beat & Upbeat Outlook: ETFs to Tap
SpaceX shares rose about 9% in extended trading after third-quarter results beat estimates, driven by its AI business and satellite internet. Revenue jumped 161% year over year to $14.58 billion, above the $12.59 billion Zacks consensus, and adjusted EPS was 45 cents versus the Zacks consensus of 11 cents. The AI segment's sales rose ninefold to $7.56 billion and turned profitable with $431 million in operating income, while connectivity revenue grew 69% to $5.25 billion as Starlink subscribers reached 13.6 million. For the first quarter of 2027, the company projected revenue of $33 billion to $37 billion, well above the $22.2 billion analyst average, and Musk said a SpaceX-Tesla merger was attractive but far from certain.

US stocks rose Tuesday, with the S&P 500 up 0.3% and the Dow up 479 points (0.9%), helped by strong quarterly results from Equifax (+11.3%), Hasbro (+10.6%) and 3M (+5.1%). Brent fell 0.7% to $108.79 after nearing its highest level since the Iran war began, lifting airlines such as American Airlines (+4.2%) and United Airlines (+2.4%). Braze soared 51.3% to $45.46 after Salesforce agreed to buy it for $47.50 per share in cash. General Motors fell 7.2% despite a bigger-than-expected profit, as the midpoint of its 2026 profit forecast fell short of expectations, though it announced a buyback of up to $20 billion. AI stocks remained volatile, with CoreWeave swinging between gains and losses and South Korean AI company Elice dropping 32% on its Seoul debut, which pushed the Kospi down 3.7%, while European indexes pared their losses, with the CAC 40 down 0.4% and the FTSE 100 down 0.3%.

- Amazon (AMZN): Can Custom AI Silicon Outpace Capex Commitments?
Amazon opened its Trainium AI chips to every PyTorch developer, letting engineers run existing code on its own hardware without rewriting it. The chips business is selling at an annual pace above $25 billion, and AWS sales grew 37% in the second quarter, up from 17% a year earlier, while CEO Andy Jassy said the AI business has also passed a $25 billion annual run rate. Anthropic and OpenAI have made multi-year commitments to Trainium. However, AI-related spending pushed free cash flow to an outflow of $7.6 billion over the past 12 months, versus an inflow of $18.2 billion a year earlier, and long-term debt rose to $128.9 billion from $65.6 billion at the end of last year. Second-quarter operating income rose 43% to $27.5 billion, but the article says the stock now depends on AWS demand lasting long enough for cash flow to recover.
- Anthropic Has Locked In Over $600 Billion of Computing, More Than Intel Is Worth. It Still Wants More and That’s Big News for AMD.
Ahead of its IPO, Anthropic has committed more than $600 billion to computing, more than Intel's $484.7 billion market value, according to leaked reports of its S-1 filing. The article cites three different totals: $518 billion of signed commitments (Reuters, late September), above $600 billion (Crypto Briefing), and a possible $750 billion of extra computing spending over several years (Wall Street Journal). Anthropic reportedly brought in $16.3 billion of revenue in the first half of 2026 but posted an $80.7 billion net loss, mostly from accounting charges. AMD said Anthropic will deploy up to 2 gigawatts of its MI450 GPUs starting in the first half of 2027, and AMD's second-quarter revenue rose 50.1% to $11.54 billion, with Data Center revenue up 107% to $6.72 billion. The article says the risks center on Anthropic's hard-to-cancel commitments, its losses and its dependence on an IPO, and notes AMD trades at a P/E of 201.
- AI bottlenecks 'keep shifting': Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang explains
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, speaking with Deirdre Bosa at Nvidia GTC Berlin, said AI bottlenecks keep shifting, moving from wafers to CoWoS, HBM memory, silicon photonics and connectors, and now to power. He said power is often available, but land, power shells, generator delivery, grid connections and construction limits create the problem, and permitting rules differ across countries and states. Huang argued Nvidia is resilient because it supports every AI model, cloud provider and computer company across every country, so it can ship chips wherever a bottleneck is resolved. He expected these physical bottlenecks to persist for a couple more years as AI factories ramp up.
- Nvidia (NVDA) Is Trading Like Growth Will Stop. The Numbers Say Otherwise.
A hotter-than-expected inflation report pushed Nvidia down more than 3% in one session, as investors worried about interest rate hikes that would raise borrowing costs for companies building AI data centers. Fiscal second-quarter revenue still reached $96.2 billion, up 106%, with data center sales up 117%, and the company guided fiscal third-quarter revenue to $108.0 billion, plus or minus 2%, excluding data center compute sales to China. Gross margin was 75.0% in the quarter. The article's main question is whether Nvidia's customers can keep paying for chips, pointing to CoreWeave's sharp drop after its bond yield chart spread online and the doubts it raised about its heavy debt. Nvidia has announced financing partnerships with Apollo, BlackRock, Blackstone, Brookfield, Goldman Sachs and KKR aimed at bringing more than $500 billion of outside capital into AI infrastructure over time, though definitive agreements are still needed.
- Bitcoin price tags $84.6K as US stocks head higher on SpaceX Q3 earnings beat
Bitcoin rose nearly 2% to $84,600, its first time at that level since Oct. 7, as US stocks gained after SpaceX reported third-quarter revenue of $14.6 billion, up 161% year over year and beating expectations by nearly 15%. SpaceX also posted net income of $4.4 billion, and analysts at Truist Securities said its results helped calm fears over corporate spending on AI buildouts. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite rose 0.7% early in the session before giving back some gains, while South Korea's KOSPI finished 3.29% higher at 5,735 points. Rekt Capital said Bitcoin needed a daily close above $83,400 to shift focus higher, and that a rejection there could send price below $82,500.
- Bybit will look for big broker partnerships to take on Robinhood in the U.S.
Bybit CEO Ben Zhou said the exchange plans to enter the U.S. through a partnership with an established local firm, such as Interactive Brokers, rather than pursue state-by-state licenses that could take two to three years. He noted Bybit, which has over 80 million registered users in more than 180 countries and regions, has a clean U.S. record and would wait for the Clarity Act or a clearer federal regulator before moving rather than rushing in. Zhou described the U.S. as competitive and saturated, and pointed to the U.K. as a relatively untapped market with a new crypto regime and no dominant global exchange, though entry costs are very high. Bybit also plans to launch an everything app offering derivatives and tokenized stocks in Europe as early as the first quarter of next year.
