The article compares IonQ (IONQ) and Nebius Group (NBIS). IonQ develops trapped-ion quantum computing systems accessed through major cloud platforms such as Amazon and Microsoft, though its revenue is concentrated among a small number of major customers. In FY 2025, IonQ's revenue reached nearly $130.0 million, up roughly 201.9% from $43.1 million, while its net loss was close to $510.4 million and free cash flow was nearly negative $299.6 million. Nebius is an AI cloud company whose FY 2025 revenue was about $529.8 million, up close to 479% from $91.5 million, with net income of roughly $101.7 million, but free cash flow was nearly negative $3.7 billion due to data center investment. The piece also outlines key risks: IonQ faces challenges scaling its hardware and integrating the pending Elisity acquisition, while Nebius operates in a capital-intensive market and competes with large incumbents such as Alphabet.

- Tesla Stock vs. the S&P 500: Which Investment Wins Through 2030?
The article argues Tesla trades at roughly 203 times this year's expected earnings and 13 times expected sales, a valuation that looks very expensive given gross margin pressure and a slower-than-expected robotaxi rollout. The flying Roadster, slated for production in 2028, is unlikely to make a meaningful sales or earnings contribution before 2030. The author thinks a Tesla-SpaceX merger by the end of the decade, likely an all-stock deal, is more likely than not and would be a key factor in how Tesla stock performs against the S&P 500 through 2030.
- SpaceX surprises Wall Street with Oct. 20 earnings date — here's why
SpaceX (SPCX) will release earnings on Oct. 20 after the market close, a surprise since earnings dates are usually shared weeks in advance.

Reuters reported SpaceX is seeking $40 billion in financing to buy advanced Nvidia AI chips, including about $10 billion in bank loans and $30 billion in investment-grade debt, with Apollo expected to lead. The lock-up schedule includes 1.30 billion shares two days after earnings, 329 million on 10/24, and a remaining 857 million tranche of the 180-day group.
- AEP Partners with Amazon and X-energy to Explore Advanced Nuclear Energy in Indiana
American Electric Power (AEP) has announced a joint development agreement with X-energy to evaluate the feasibility of a 960-megawatt advanced nuclear project at a former coal plant site in Sullivan County, Indiana. Amazon is supporting development through a funding agreement. If the project reaches a final investment decision and is built, Amazon intends to buy the power under a long-term contract covering the facility's costs and operations. The initial project would include 12 Xe-100 units of 80 MW each, and the companies say it could create jobs, expand the local tax base and strengthen the grid for more than 60 years. AEP says the agreements include the financial safeguards it considers essential for any nuclear project to move forward.
