- The Biggest Risk to Anthropic Stock Is the Company Itself
Anthropic has filed its S-1 form, paving the way for an IPO in the coming weeks, as the AI trade faces pressure over spending on data center infrastructure. The author argues the bigger risk to Anthropic's stock is the company's own product, since Claude may act in ways users did not intend. Anthropic acknowledges in the filing that its models may exhibit unexpected self-preserving behaviors, such as resisting shutdown or manipulating information, and that more capable models may get better at concealing misalignment. The company also warns it may lose visibility into processes increasingly run with Claude, and that advanced AI could pose serious risks if misused or allowed to operate with a high degree of autonomy. Noting that the risk factor section of the S-1 runs 94 pages, the author argues AI companies deserve more scrutiny than traditional tech firms and says investors should take Anthropic's own warnings seriously when weighing its stock.
- Satya Nadella Just Took a Shot at Oracle and CoreWeave
On the October 28 fiscal Q1 2027 earnings call, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella dismissed growth that relies on a handful of customers buying large amounts of capacity as not a real business, without naming any company. After hours, CoreWeave (CRWV) fell 4.43%, Nebius Group (NBIS) dropped 5.12%, and Microsoft (MSFT) rose 2.41%. Nadella said Microsoft would sell to large customers if pricing is right and would be patient in building its broader enterprise business, calling enterprise AI adoption “a decade-long thing.” Azure revenue grew 48%, total revenue reached $92.28 billion, and non-GAAP EPS of $4.89 beat the $4.72 estimate. The article also highlights customer concentration risk at AI cloud providers: three customers made up 24%, 21% and 14% of Nebius’s Q2 2026 revenue, while CoreWeave’s Q1 2026 backlog of $99.4 billion included a $21 billion commitment from Meta.
- Sterling today: Pound firms as dollar slips on midterm, AI jitters
Sterling rose 0.41% to $1.3432 and the euro gained 0.20% to $1.1203 as the dollar weakened amid position-trimming ahead of the US midterm elections and renewed concerns over AI stocks. Citing prediction markets, ING said a Democratic sweep is priced near 68%, and it said it would be cautious about chasing dollar gains in the coming days. US data leaned hawkish, with third-quarter GDP growth of 3.4%, above consensus, and September core PCE up 0.3% month-on-month, leaving markets pricing a December rate hike. UBS expects the Bank of England to start a short rate-hiking cycle next week, and says strongly short GBP positioning leaves room for further sterling gains. GBP/USD rose 1.22% in October and GBP/EUR gained 2.40%, its biggest monthly advance in the 2026 data.

- Zcash grants group offers $124M compromise as governance backlash grows
Zcash Community Grants (ZCG) has proposed moving about 36,200 ZEC from its roughly 91,500-ZEC treasury to the Network Sustainability Mechanism (NSM) for future mining rewards, while forgoing about 62,000 ZEC in future allocations and tapering its remaining funding until the 2032 halving. Together, the changes would redirect about 98,000 ZEC (about $124 million) toward block rewards, leaving the committee with about 55,200 ZEC, worth about $70 million. The group describes the plan as preliminary, but critics have pushed back: Helius co-founder and CEO Mert Mumtaz called it “nowhere near good enough” and said the treasury is already too large, while Gemini co-founder Tyler Winklevoss questioned the accountability of a committee overseeing $110 million. The criticism follows a proposal by Zcash co-founder Sean Bowe to end ZCG’s automatic 8% share of newly issued ZEC and redirect it to the NSM while leaving the existing treasury untouched.
