- Global equities may regain momentum as strong earnings offset concerns over rising bond yields: Morgan Stanley
Morgan Stanley says global risk assets could regain momentum as strong growth, corporate earnings and AI-driven productivity offset concerns about rising bond yields. The bank argues higher yields mainly reflect resilient nominal growth rather than a weakening economy, which is why it has moved to overweight global equities versus fixed income. It keeps an overweight on US stocks, stays cautious on Europe due to energy headwinds, sees opportunities in banks and utilities, and flags weaker earnings growth and limited AI exposure for India. Key risks include an oil supply shock forcing excessive central bank tightening, geopolitical tensions and persistent inflation, with diesel supply a particular vulnerability.
- Global equities may regain momentum as strong earnings offset concerns over rising bond yields : Morgan Stanley
Morgan Stanley says the bull market in risk assets could regain momentum as strong economic growth, corporate earnings and AI-driven productivity support returns despite rising bond yields. The report argues that higher yields mainly reflect resilient nominal growth rather than weakening conditions, which is why the firm has turned overweight on global equities relative to fixed income. Global activity remains firm despite high energy prices and interest rates, but the key risk is an oil supply shock that could force central banks to tighten policy excessively. Within equities, the firm stays overweight on US markets, remains cautious on Europe due to energy headwinds, favours banks and utilities, and flags weaker forward earnings expectations for Indian equities.

- Q3 Earnings Season Preview: Revenue Beats Lag, Multi-Sector Momentum Holds
More than 250 companies, including 73 S&P 500 members, report Q3 results this week, bringing the number of S&P 500 members that have reported to 118 by week's end, nearly a quarter of the index. The season has started mixed, with growth and revenue-beat rates tracking modestly lower than recently, although early results skew toward the Finance sector and trends may shift. Q3 earnings for the S&P 500 are expected to rise 24.6% from a year earlier on 11.7% higher revenue, the eighth straight quarter of double-digit earnings growth. Fourteen of 16 Zacks sectors are on track for positive earnings growth, and estimate revisions have turned positive and broadened across sectors. Excluding the Tech sector, earnings growth for the rest of the index would drop to 14.4%.

- 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.
