Meta has pledged to consult news industry groups before finalizing new commercial terms of service, after publishers raised concerns that their content could be used to train its AI models. The original terms, announced in mid-October, allowed Meta to use tools such as web crawlers to scrape content from sites linked to business users; after the backlash, Meta removed that language, pushed the effective date from the end of October to Nov. 20, and said consultations could delay it again. News Media Canada and the World Association of News Publishers, which represents 20,000 outlets in 120 countries, are calling for terms that let publishers refuse permission without penalties affecting access or distribution. EU and UK regulators have received complaints, and an Oslo court temporarily barred Meta from enforcing the new terms in Norway after a coalition of Norwegian news outlets sued.

The article argues the US and China retain a clear lead in AI, while Europe is barely in the race. At an international AI summit in Dublin, hosted by the Irish government during its EU presidency, leaders highlighted AI's economic potential and stressed regulation and safety, though concerns about data centre environmental impact and job losses were largely left unaddressed. The EU hosts 5% of global AI computing capacity versus about 75% for the US, and has begun its first enforcement actions under the new AI Act. The Dublin Declaration outlines commitments to infrastructure investment and financial backing for European AI firms.

- Google lost nearly half a trillion this week. Here's how Mike Khouw is trading it
Alphabet (GOOGL) shares fell over 12% to $285 after its Q3 2026 earnings, wiping out nearly $500 billion in market cap. Cloud revenue rose 103%, but EPS of $2.12 missed the $3.02 estimate and free cash flow turned negative amid heavy AI capital spending. Several firms downgraded the stock or cut price targets, while technical indicators weakened, with the RSI deeply oversold and the MACD showing a sell signal. The author outlines a short strangle strategy expiring December 18, 2026, which would profit if GOOGL stays between $250 and $325, with the main risk being a drop below $250 and an unexpected catalyst pushing shares past $310. The author notes both the short call and short put have a probability of profit close to 90%.
- Binance Sets Aside $6.34B to Cover Hack Losses, CEO Says 'Your Assets Are Safe'
CEO Richard Teng said Binance will cover all hacked losses with company funds, having reserved over $6.34 billion, of which $5 billion is already held in the exact tokens stolen, with the rest being bought through market and OTC channels. The hack hit Binance's hot wallet, and Teng said customer funds were not touched. He said the attacker used a self-destruct mechanism to wipe tools and traces, and an EIP-7702 delegation that bypassed Binance's normal approval controls; TRM Labs and Chainalysis have attributed the theft to North Korean group TraderTraitor. Binance aims to restore withdrawals by Sunday and publish a full proof of reserves by Monday. On Friday, a Tron wallet that Arkham links to the attacker sent about 5.19 million TRX, worth roughly $1.73 million, to 12 addresses.
- Tesla Stock Could Rebound as These 3 Growth Drivers Take Center Stage
Tesla shares rose 9.37% over the past week after third-quarter non-GAAP EPS of $0.48 beat the $0.4511 consensus, and Barclays upgraded the stock to Buy from Hold. The article points to three growth drivers: Robotaxi and FSD, with unsupervised miles up 8x and active FSD subscriptions at 1.74 million; Megapack, with 13.7 GWh deployed and energy gross margin at 33.1%; and Optimus, now in early production in Fremont. 24/7 Wall St. sets a price target of $416.22 against the current $402.55, with a bull case of $473.43 and a bear case of $371.65. Risks include a 55.79% drop in operating income to $718 million and a 61.63% fall in free cash flow, with some energy margin gains from tariff refunds and warranty true-downs that may not repeat. The article says the speed at which Robotaxi generates revenue matters most to the outlook.
- St. Louis Fed's Musalem: Tighter monetary policy is needed 'soon'
St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem said in prepared remarks on Friday that additional monetary policy firming will be necessary, 'and soon,' following Wednesday's decision to hold rates steady. His comments bolster investor expectations that the Fed will return to rate hikes at its December meeting, with CME FedWatch pricing roughly a 76% chance of a quarter-point increase. He described the U.S. economy as 'resilient,' pointing to GDP growth of 3.4%, which beat expectations, and an unemployment rate of 4.2%. However, he said inflation is 'too high,' with annual PCE inflation above 3%, and that it could stay above the 2% target unless policy is adjusted. He argued that moving sooner in smaller steps is less disruptive than larger, abrupt actions later.

- Datadog Sinks 12%, CrowdStrike Falls 4% Despite $6.3 Billion Binance Hack Spotlighting Cyber Defense; Palo Alto and Fortinet Slide 3%
Datadog fell 12% to $233.41 and CrowdStrike dropped 4% to $249.58 in afternoon trading, even though a $6.3 billion crypto theft at Binance highlighted the value of cyber defense. Palo Alto Networks and Fortinet also slid about 3%, with Fortinet extending a steep drop that followed its October 28 Q3 2026 report, which cited slower conversion of service billings and rising component costs. The article ties the sector's decline to hyperscaler earnings, including Alphabet's loss of more than $500 billion in market value after reporting negative $9.1 billion in free cash flow, which fueled worries about AI spending. Datadog is seen as especially exposed because its revenue grows with cloud usage, while CrowdStrike posted record net new ARR of $332.8 million in Q2 FY2027 but trades at 190x forward earnings.
