  • Nvidia CEO Says All of This Is Going to Pass After Tech Lost $1 Trillion in a Day

    Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, speaking in Berlin on October 16, 2026, said “all of this is going to pass” after a selloff that wiped more than $1 trillion from tech stocks in one day. The Nasdaq 100 fell 2.5% to 29,187.55, while the Philadelphia semiconductor index dropped 3.8% for its eighth straight losing day, its longest streak since 2008, as oil hit a five-month high. Nvidia slipped 1.43% to $214.13, while AMD, Intel, Micron and Broadcom fell between 4.52% and 5.95%. The article argues the pressure came mainly from oil and Treasury yields, with the 10-year at 5.10%, rather than from AI itself, and notes that Huang announced no new orders or guidance. Investors will look to Nvidia's November 18 earnings, where management guided to fiscal third-quarter revenue of $108.0 billion, plus or minus 2%.

  • Nvidia’s CEO Says “All of This Is Going to Pass” After Tech Lost $1 Trillion in a Day

    On October 16, 2026, tech stocks lost more than $1 trillion in value in a single session as oil and Treasury yields rose. In Berlin, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said “all of this is going to pass” and that AI will benefit every industry, but he announced no new orders, guidance or customers. The Nasdaq 100 fell 2.5% to 29,187.55, and the Philadelphia semiconductor index dropped 3.8%, its eighth straight losing day and longest such streak since 2008. Nvidia slipped 1.43% to $214.13, a $5.17 trillion market value, holding up better than AMD, Intel, Micron and Broadcom. The article argues Huang’s comments do not address the real drivers of the selloff, namely WTI crude at $101.91 on October 14 and the 10-year Treasury yield at 5.10% on October 15, and calls the November 18 earnings report the key test.

  • Nasdaq 100 Records Worst Week In 18 Months As Investors Steer Clear Of Chipmakers — AAPL, MSTR, UBER, SOXX In Focus

    The Nasdaq 100 fell 2.5% on Friday, its worst week in over a year and a half, while the S&P 500 dropped 1.1% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped 0.3%. Chip stocks led the decline, with semiconductor ETFs down 3% to 4% and Micron (MU), Nvidia (NVDA) and Broadcom (AVGO) among the weakest names. Investor anxiety grew over the heavy spending and debt tech firms are taking on to fund AI expansion, with CoreWeave shares falling almost 12% on the day and 25% on the week as its debt load topped $51 billion. An Angeles executive said current debt levels remain far from systemic danger, while Nvidia's Jensen Huang argued the AI benefits will outweigh investor concerns. Elsewhere, Apple (AAPL) is preparing to fight U.K. antitrust regulators over tap-to-pay rules, Strategy (MSTR) fell after MSCI's new index screening approach put its membership at risk, and ExxonMobil (XOM) said higher refining margins could add about $4.5 billion to third-quarter results versus the prior quarter.

  • Despite stalled talks, Trump yet to decide on new Iran strike

    On October 31, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said President Donald Trump has not yet decided whether to strike Iran again, amid reports the U.S. could resume attacks after the November 3 midterm elections. Rubio accused Iran of openly and deliberately targeting commercial vessels, while stressing that Trump prefers a diplomatic solution, and declined to comment on negotiations or give a timeline for a deal. Iranian negotiators are meeting Qatari mediators in Doha; Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Tehran has reviewed a letter from U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance and called it a “positive step.” According to Reuters, Iranian officials reportedly dislike Qatar's seven-day plan and have proposed their own: the U.S. would lift its blockade of Iranian ports, release frozen assets and approve an Iran-backed shipping arrangement through the Strait of Hormuz. Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei warned the U.S. and Israel not to carry out further attacks and ordered the armed forces to be ready to respond immediately.

  • AI investors rush to hedge against potential tech market downturn - WSJ

    According to The Wall Street Journal, investors and technology executives are increasingly seeking protection against a possible downturn in the AI market, as concerns grow over the sustainability of trillions of dollars in AI-related investment. Demand for hedging tools such as put options and credit-default swaps (CDS) has accelerated after sharp declines in tech stocks; the Nasdaq Composite fell 2.9% on Friday, its worst monthly performance since March 2025. CoreWeave has drawn particularly strong demand for downside protection, with trading volumes for put options tied to the company hitting record levels in October, according to Cboe Global Markets. The risk has also spread to corporate debt, as the cost of insuring against defaults by Amazon, Alphabet, Microsoft, Meta and Oracle has risen to its highest level since 2021, with Oracle's CDS spreads widening by more than one percentage point. Jump Trading has launched a computing-power trading desk offering derivatives to protect data center operators against falling chip rental prices, as Nvidia B300 rental rates have risen about 56% this year.

  • 30% Tax Cut: Over 81% of Enterprises and 99.98% of Household Businesses Benefit

    The government has issued a decree guiding the National Assembly's resolution on cutting personal income tax and corporate income tax, effective from 29 October. Under it, household businesses and enterprises with annual revenue of up to 10 billion VND get a 30% reduction in tax for this year and next; if revenue exceeds 10 billion VND, they must pay back the reduced tax. Taxpayers determine the reduction themselves when paying tax quarterly or per declaration period, and for 2026, reductions not yet declared will be applied at annual finalization. According to the Ministry of Finance, 99.98% of household businesses and about 81.11% of enterprises are eligible. The policy is expected to reduce state budget revenue by about 6,700 billion VND over 2026–2027.

  • KOS Extends Floor-Price Streak to 29 Sessions, but Not a Record: This Is the Name With the Most Dramatic Floor-Price Losing Streak in Vietnam's Stock Market History

    Shares of Kosy JSC (KOS) have hit the floor price for 29 consecutive sessions, falling nearly 90% in about six weeks and wiping out thousands of billions of VND in market capitalization. The slide came as securities firms repeatedly force-sold shares held by several executives and organizations linked to Kosy. KOS has not broken the record of 34 consecutive floor-price sessions set by CDO in 2016–2017, though FTM (30 sessions, 2019) and ATG (29 sessions, 2016–2017) also had long streaks. The article notes that when margin-selling pressure hits thinly traded stocks, investors may find it very hard to exit their positions, even after steep price declines.

  • Bloom Energy Trades at 140 Times Earnings. Here's the Growth Rate It Needs to Justify That.

    Bloom Energy's price-to-earnings ratio has fallen from over 350x to about 140x, after its share price declined and the company reported third-quarter earnings. Third-quarter revenue rose 138% year over year, driven mainly by a 179% increase in fuel cell sales, lifting adjusted quarterly earnings to $0.94 per share, up $0.78 from a year earlier. According to the article, sustaining third-quarter earnings would bring the P/E to about 60x, while doubling earnings would bring it to 30x, slightly below the technology sector average of around 32x. The P/E would also reach 30x if the share price were halved with earnings unchanged. The article warns the stock remains high-risk, as many fear the AI trade has become a bubble.
