- newcleo And 2 Founder Led Stocks To Watch
The article argues founder-led businesses often have leaders with large personal stakes and long-term outlooks, and highlights three such stocks. Newcleo (NWCL) develops modular lead-cooled fast reactors and MOX fuel under founder CEO Claudio Garo, generating about €44 million from electric equipment with a market value near $1.8b; it has ongoing losses and a premium P/S multiple, so outcomes depend heavily on execution of long-dated projects. Tesla (TSLA), still steered by Elon Musk, generated about US$90.8b from Automotive and US$12.8b from Energy Generation and Storage, with a market value near US$1.4t. The company is pursuing AI, robotaxis, humanoid robotics and battery storage, while competition in energy storage is intensifying.

- Energy Transition Update - Rising Solar Storage Market Spurs Global Clean Energy Shift
The solar energy storage market is expected to grow at a 17.5% CAGR from 2025 to 2033, driven by rising solar adoption, demand for backup power, grid stability needs, falling battery costs and supportive clean energy policies. Lithium-ion batteries dominate, Asia Pacific leads on robust solar deployments, and North America and Europe are growing strongly due to residential battery adoption. Key challenges include high upfront installation costs and supply chain dependence on battery materials.

- Elon Musk says Tesla's Optimus robot needs to learn like a toddler
Elon Musk said on Tesla’s earnings call that Optimus humanoid robots must learn through self-play at scale, since Tesla lacks the vast car fleet that supplies training data, likening this to how a toddler learns to navigate the world by playing. Tesla cut its 2026 capex outlook to about $20 billion from $25 billion as it prioritizes usable humanoids. Optimus V3 production began at Fremont in the summer after Model S and Model X output ended there, with about 1,000 Gen 3 units already operating on the production floor. William Blair analyst Jed Dorsheimer said Musk pushed the timeline for a 1 million-unit weekly run-rate to over a year, with first applications in dangerous industrial settings by the end of 2027.

Tesla cut its capital spending plan for this year to $20 billion from the $25 billion it guided three months earlier, and Elon Musk said Optimus robots need to learn through self-play at scale before real-world use, since they lack a vast fleet of cars to gather training data. At Meta, Mark Zuckerberg's comments on credit limits suggest early users of the Muse AI agent may be overspending; more than a quarter of Muse users shop with it, at an average purchase above $200, and according to a quote in the article, Meta had to work with Stripe to raise credit limits in the first week because volumes exceeded expectations. The article asks whether AI agent shopping could lead to unpaid debts and write-offs for retailers and banks. At IBM, CEO Arvind Krishna said larger enterprises are scrutinizing the true ROI of their AI spending, while maintaining that AI's productivity benefits are very real.

- Irish central bank fines Coinbase Ireland $3.6 million over fund safeguarding failures
Ireland's central bank fined Coinbase Ireland 3.25 million euros ($3.6 million) for alleged failures to safeguard customer funds and oversee outsourced services, saying the unit relied excessively on its U.S. parent and lacked adequate systems and controls. The regulator cited a 2023 episode in which Coinbase directed 30 customers to deposit funds into an alternate account at another U.S. bank when Silvergate neared collapse, holding them alongside funds of another Coinbase entity's customers, and coding errors left a safeguarding account underfunded by an average of 0.54% in 2023 and the first half of 2024. Coinbase said no customer lost money or was unable to access funds. The penalty follows a 21.4 million-euro fine on Coinbase Europe in 2025 for anti-money laundering failures.
- XRP Is 63% Below Its All-Time High and Ethereum 51%. Which Reclaims their ATH First?
XRP trades at $1.33, 63.5% below its all-time high of $3.65 set in July 2025, while Ethereum is at $2,403, 51.4% below its August 2025 peak of $4,946, and both fell over the past month. Reclaiming those highs would require gains of 174.4% for XRP and 105.9% for Ethereum, and the article concludes Ethereum has the edge, citing JPM Coin's integration onto its network on October 19 and a sizeable ETF asset base. XRP ETFs held $1.57 billion in net assets, but inflows slowed to $708,500 on October 21, while Ethereum's cumulative ETF net inflows fell to $12.83 billion amid outflows.

The Nasdaq 100 dropped 1.5% and the S&P fell nearly 1%. Meta shares slid 5% after it raised the lower bound of its capex guidance from $130 billion to $135 billion and issued new non-voting stock, while Tesla fell 2% after cutting its proposed AI spending from $25 billion to $20 billion.

- Musk: People Are "Buying FSD With a Car Attached." There's Only One Problem.
Tesla said 75% of its new North American deliveries in the third quarter came with an FSD subscription, up from 55% in the second quarter, and active FSD subscriptions rose 67% to 1.74 million. Tesla has not disclosed how many subscribers pay, since the first month is free. When an RBC analyst asked whether the paid rate was closer to 30% to 40%, CFO Vaibhav Taneja did not give a clear answer. The article also notes that Tesla's overall gross margin fell from 25.6% in fiscal 2022 to 18% in fiscal 2025, while the stock trades at 185x forward earnings. It argues the paid attach rate is the key figure to watch, as paid FSD revenue remains small relative to Tesla's total sales.

- TeraFab's $16.8 billion bet to start producing 100K chips a month
Host Ejaaz Ahamadeen comments on Elon Musk's proposed $16.8 billion investment in his TeraFab semiconductor manufacturing project. He argues that chips are a key bottleneck for AI, humanoid robots and cars, and that vertical integration would reduce reliance on suppliers such as Nvidia. The first phase involves $16.8 billion to reach 100,000 wafers a month before 2030, with a peak of 1 million wafers a month within 10 years and more than 3,000 jobs. The host also stresses that the project carries many potential risks.
