Hitachi Energy and Ansaldo Energia signed a memorandum of understanding on October 16, 2026 to develop and market integrated power solutions that help customers secure reliable electricity faster as demand surges. The partnership combines Ansaldo Energia's gas-turbine and generator technologies with Hitachi Energy's full grid integration capabilities, spanning high-voltage systems, transformers, automation and power electronics. The companies aim to serve both 60 Hz and 50 Hz markets, including data centers, as global electricity demand is expected to nearly double by 2050, a challenge especially acute in the United States due to AI and data center growth. Hitachi Energy also plans to support autonomous, integrated data center operations by combining these solutions with HMAX Data Center under One Hitachi.

- Hitachi Energy invests $479 million CAD to bring critical transformer manufacturing capability to Canada
Hitachi Energy, a subsidiary of Hitachi, will invest 479 million CAD (more than 330 million USD) to build a new transformer insulation factory in London, Ontario, covering 21,000 square meters, with completion expected by 2028 and over 100 permanent jobs. The facility will feature Canada's first pressboard manufacturing line and Hitachi Energy's first in the Americas, easing a key bottleneck in transformer production caused by limited insulation supply. The Government of Canada announced 20 million CAD through the Strategic Response Fund, the Government of Ontario announced up to 20 million CAD through the Invest Ontario Fund, and Natural Resources Canada provided an additional 10 million CAD. The project responds to rising electricity demand from new industrial projects, AI and data centres, and electrification, as Canada aims to double its grid capacity by 2050.
- Hitachi Energy and Rockwell Automation unite power and automation to help industries accelerate electrification
Hitachi Energy and Rockwell Automation announced a collaboration on an integrated grid-to-process architecture that links the power infrastructure of industrial facilities with production systems. The companies say rising power demand, decarbonization pressure and capital constraints mean electrical and production planning can no longer be separated. Mining and metals will be the initial focus, where analysis estimates growth capital expenditure for new capacity could require $1 trillion USD over the next decade. Their combined expertise spans grid connection, power quality, energy management, process automation and digital operations. The partners are exploring solution development and customer engagement, with broader potential in other energy-intensive industries.

- Roblox Is Now Down 38% in 2026: Is RBLX Stock Dead Money or Poised for a Comeback?
Roblox stock is down 38% year to date to $50.41, with a late-September court ruling letting a Los Angeles County child exploitation lawsuit proceed and a Jefferies downgrade to Underperform adding pressure. Jefferies argued the rally after the Q2 report priced in too much bookings growth, which rose only 8% to $1.6 billion in Q2 even as daily active users grew 10% to 123 million. Safety changes, including a mandatory age check, had already led Roblox to cut its full-year revenue growth forecast to 20% to 25% earlier this year. For Q3 2026, Roblox forecasts a year-over-year bookings decline of 14% to 18%. Take-Two (down 20%) and GameStop (up 31%) year to date suggest the pressure is specific to Roblox, and the article frames the key test as whether bookings stabilize while user growth continues.
- Super Micro (SMCI) Won Over $60 Billion in Orders, Is the Discount Deserved?
A contractor linked to Super Micro Computer (SMCI) pleaded guilty earlier this month to helping ship servers with advanced Nvidia chips to China, a case prosecutors say involved billions of dollars of U.S. AI technology, though the company says it was not named as a defendant and its operations are unaffected. Sales for the fiscal year ended June reached $39.1 billion, up from $22.0 billion, with CEO Charles Liang citing more than $60 billion in new orders, several hundred added enterprise customers, and a record backlog. Management guides to $65.0 billion to $72.0 billion in fiscal 2027 sales, and sales have grown about 61.5% a year over five years. Gross margin was 10.8% for the full year but rose to 17.5% in the June quarter, with net income of $1,178 million, while the trailing 12-month operating margin was 7.09%. The article notes the stock trades at a much lower multiple of expected earnings than the sector, and that one strong quarter does not yet prove a new margin level.
- Is Nvidia Stock Really Trading for Just 8 Times 2030 Earnings?
Nvidia is the market's most valuable company, with a market cap above $5 trillion. It trades at 27 times adjusted trailing earnings, but only about 8 times analysts' estimate for fiscal 2030 earnings, a figure the author stresses is a moving target. Revenue growth accelerated from 56% in Q2 FY 2026 to 106% in Q2 FY 2027, though guidance points to a slight slowdown in the current quarter. The stock trades at 13 times next year's earnings, and the board recently authorized a record $150 billion in share repurchases. The author also acknowledges risks such as slower growth or contracting net margins.
- California billionaire tax could backfire, Stanford study says
Stanford economists Benjamin Jaros and Joshua Rauh argue in an NBER working paper that California's proposed one-time 5% tax on billionaire wealth could raise far less than projected and ultimately reduce state revenue. Seven billionaires, including Peter Thiel, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, have publicly left the state, removing about $540 billion, or 30%, of California's billionaire wealth from potential taxation. The authors estimate the measure could generate only about $30 billion, versus the $100 billion projected by proponents, while losing $1 billion to $3.5 billion a year in income tax revenue could leave the state about $39 billion worse off in present-value terms if those losses persist. The measure, Proposition 40, goes to voters next month, and a Citrin-Politico poll found 46% of likely voters in favor and 43% opposed. Supporters, including Nobel laureates Daron Acemoglu and Joseph Stiglitz, argue the tax will fund health care and that California has attracted more venture funding since the proposal was announced.
- US Orders Civilian Agencies to Rip DeepSeek Out of Government Systems
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security on Monday ordered civilian federal agencies to remove DeepSeek products and third-party services built on the model from their IT systems, and to stop buying them. The notice warns that using DeepSeek may transfer sensitive data to China and could produce intelligence on U.S. persons and agencies. The Commerce Department, the Navy, and the states of New York, Tennessee and Virginia had already restricted DeepSeek. The FCC votes on October 29 on barring Chinese labs from testing electronics for U.S. use.
- NVIDIA Stock And 2 Other Undervalued Stocks To Own
Rising interest rates have pushed down bond prices, with 10-year U.S. Treasuries recording one of their steepest multi-year declines since the 18th century. The article highlights three U.S. stocks that a Simply Wall St cash flow screen considers attractively priced relative to their future cash flow potential: NVIDIA, Wells Fargo and J.B. Hunt Transport Services. NVIDIA generated about US$275.4b from Compute & Networking and US$27.6b from Graphics, with a market cap of US$5,170.6b, and the piece notes that an open-source or cheaper alternative to its CUDA platform could weaken its moat. Wells Fargo, with a market cap of US$251.7b, grew average loans 12% and average deposits 10% year over year in 2Q26 after the removal of its asset cap, while J.B. Hunt, with a market cap of US$21.3b and US$13.3b in revenue, recorded record intermodal volume of over 578,000 loads in Q2 2026.
