- Baystreet . ca - When Might October Nasdaq Correction End ?
The Nasdaq Composite (QQQ) is down 6.96% from its 52-week high and fell 5.52% last week, short of the 10% decline that defines a technical correction. The article argues that high oil prices, with September CPI and PPI both rising, will keep inflation elevated while Iran controls traffic through the Strait of Hormuz. Beaten-down AI infrastructure names fell sharply, with CoreWeave (CRWV) down 25.21% last week as short sellers held a 17% short float and bet that its $50 billion debt load is unsustainable, and Nebius (NBIS) dropped 25%. In software, Twilio (TWLO) fell 15.6%, while Autodesk (ADSK), Salesforce (CRM) and Adobe Systems (ADBE) saw buying. The article expects volatility may ease after the mid-term elections.

- Jensen Huang: “Two Gigawatts to Us Is Like $80 Billion.” 43 New Gigawatts Coming in 2027
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said two gigawatts of AI capacity, like the ones Nvidia announced in Australia, are worth about $80 billion to the company, up from about $18 billion per gigawatt previously. He attributed the increase to Nvidia now selling far more of each data center, including networking, CPUs, storage and security, not just GPUs. Citing SemiAnalysis's Dylan Patel on the BG2 podcast, Altimeter Capital's Brad Gerstner said 43 gigawatts of new AI compute will come online next year. At about $40 billion per gigawatt, Nvidia would need around 17 gigawatts to reach the $692 billion revenue estimate for fiscal 2028, though Huang said land, power and data center buildings are the main obstacles to the build-out.
