The company has been profitable since 2023 and joined the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 in 2024. Analysts expect revenue and EPS to grow at 59% and 70% CAGRs over 2025–2028, and the stock trades at 87 times next year's earnings. Risks flagged include rising interest rates and Treasury yields that could compress its valuation, and a controversial reputation tied to immigration enforcement, mass surveillance and military software.

- Here What $10 , 000 Split Across SpaceX , Palantir , and 3 AI Chip Stocks Could Be Worth in 2035
The author argues that concentrating a large sum in one stock is a risky bet and that diversifying across companies building different parts of the same future is smarter, so suggests splitting $10,000 equally, $2,000 each, into five AI-linked stocks for the long term. Space Exploration Technologies (SPCX), public since its June 2026 IPO and trading near $145 with a market cap close to $2 trillion, has a bull case built on Starlink's direct-to-cell service and Starship's frequent, cheaper launches, but would likely track the market if that progress stalls. Palantir (around $195) could grow a $2,000 stake to $8,000 to $10,000 by 2035 if its rare growth pace holds, or to about $3,000 if growth merely cools; Broadcom (around $340) could reach about $6,000 in a bull case or about $3,000 if customer concentration becomes a problem. AMD (around $540) could reach $8,000 if it closes its software gap with Nvidia's CUDA, or about $4,000 if it falls short. TSMC (around $415) is expected to keep fabricating the physical chips, with its planned Arizona investment at $265 billion and its 2026 capital expenditure budget lifted toward $64 billion.
- Here's What $10,000 Split Across SpaceX, Palantir, and 3 AI Chip Stocks Could Be Worth in 2035
The author argues that spreading money across several companies in a promising sector beats concentrating in one stock, and suggests splitting $10,000 into five $2,000 stakes in SpaceX (SPCX), Palantir (PLTR), Broadcom (AVGO), AMD and TSMC. SPCX, which went public in June 2026, trades near $145 with a market cap of close to $2 trillion; PLTR trades near $195, and its U.S. commercial revenue more than doubled in the first half of 2026. Under the author's scenarios, $2,000 in PLTR could grow to $8,000–$10,000 if growth continues or about $3,000 if it slows; AVGO could reach near $6,000 or about $3,000; AMD could reach $8,000 or about $4,000. TSMC has raised its planned Arizona investment to $265 billion and its 2026 capex budget toward $64 billion.

- Billionaire CEO : AI Is The Biggest Bubble Of Our Lifetime , But Investors Should Keep Buying During The Melt - Up
Galaxy Digital CEO Mike Novogratz called AI “the biggest bubble of our lifetime” at a Greenwich Economic Forum panel in early October, yet urged investors to keep buying. He says AI stocks still look cheap on price-to-earnings and rising long-term borrowing costs are not enough to stop the rally, while competition with China makes slowing AI development unlikely. His exit signals are stocks and the dollar falling together, spiking bond yields and foreign selling of Treasuries. The article notes NVIDIA revenue rose 105.8% to $96.22B, top-five hyperscalers are projected to spend $1.3 trillion on capex in 2027, and NVIDIA trades near 43 times trailing earnings versus about 29 for Microsoft. After the panel, CPI rose 3.7% against 3.6% expected, and the S&P 500 fell about 0.95%.

- Is TC Energy (TRP) a Good or Bad Investment at Today's Multiple?
TC Energy trades at 21.19 times next year's expected earnings, closing at $61.74 on October 16 after a 1.5% return over 6 months, versus 10.5% for the Insider Monkey Billionaire Index and 9.3% for the State Street SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust. The company operates natural gas transmission pipelines across Canada, the United States and Mexico, plus power generation, with a 44.25% operating margin, and latest-quarter earnings rose 18.00% on revenue up 5.70%. The article flags risks including debt at 170.37% of equity, the loss of crude oil pipelines to South Bow in 2024, and volumes that depend on North American gas demand from power and LNG exports. A 4.01% yield is cited as income while the market decides whether the stable business justifies the multiple relative to its growth.
- Should You Buy This Trump AI Stock Ahead of Earnings?
Microsoft (MSFT) reports quarterly results on October 28 and ranks eighth in Trump's latest stock portfolio, after Trump bought the stock five times in August. Bulls point to Azure growth of 43% last quarter, with management expecting about 45% in the current quarter, and to demand that exceeds available computing capacity. Bears cite rising capital spending that Deutsche Bank says could push free cash flow close to breakeven in fiscal 2027, about two-thirds of spending going to short-lived equipment such as chips, and OpenAI making up about 45% of the commercial backlog in the December quarter. The stock trades at 26.75 times forward earnings, a 27% premium to the sector median of 21.01 but 12% below its own five-year average of 30.47, with a PEG ratio of 1.70 versus a sector median of 1.14. The article concludes that investors pay more than for the average tech stock but less than they usually pay for Microsoft.
- What Is Williams' (WMB) Economic Moat, and Is It Steel or Permits?
Williams (WMB) closed at $71.28 on October 16, with a 0.5% return over 6 months, compared with 10.5% for the Insider Monkey Billionaire Index and 9.3% for the State Street SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust. The article argues its main advantage is the Transco pipeline, which runs from the Gulf Coast up the eastern seaboard, where several attempts to build new pipe have been abandoned after failing to win approvals. A 39.54% operating margin and 21.50% return on equity are cited as evidence of this advantage, although revenue rose only 7.80% last quarter. Limits noted include debt at 200.37% of equity, rules that also restrict Williams' own growth, and a price of 26.81 times expected next-year earnings. The dividend yields 2.95%.
- Marvell Jumps 6% as GF Securities Says Google Chip Delay Won’t Dent Its Position; Broadcom Rises 3%
Marvell shares rose 6% to $241.27 in afternoon trading after a reported delay in Google's next TPU chip, while Broadcom gained 3%. GF Securities analyst Jeff Pu said the delay does not change Marvell's medium- to long-term position in Google's chip supply chain. Marvell reported Q2 FY2027 revenue of $2.74 billion, up 36.5% YoY, with its Data Center segment at $2.17 billion, or 79% of revenue. Google can acquire up to 7% of Marvell shares under a warrant tied to revenue targets, and management expects its custom business to more than double in fiscal 2028. Q3 revenue guidance is $3.15 billion, plus or minus 5%, with non-GAAP gross margin of 57.5% to 58.5%, and the article notes Marvell still needs to convert its Google programs into reported revenue.
- Is ONEOK (OKE) Cheap at 14 Times Next Year’s Earnings?
ONEOK (NYSE:OKE) closed at $93.31 on October 16 and returned 11.4% over six months, versus 10.5% for the Insider Monkey Billionaire Index. The stock trades at 14.49 times next year's expected earnings and yields 4.59%, and revenue rose 52.80% last quarter as the company grew through acquisitions. The article argues that much of this growth was bought rather than built, with only 13.25% of revenue remaining as operating profit and debt at 143.07% of equity. Because a large part of the business involves buying and reselling liquids rather than earning transport fees, the article views the discount as having a reason behind it. It concludes that investors should watch margins rather than revenue.
