Nvidia, Zoom and SpaceX shares rose in premarket trading on Wednesday. Nvidia shares gained about 1.5% after it introduced DSX POD, a modular reference design for Vera Rubin AI factories built and validated by partners, which could cut deployment time from 6 months to as little as 14 days. Oppenheimer upgraded Zoom to 'Outperform' from 'Perform' with a $130 price target, citing progress in its AI platform, revenue per user and customer retention, and Zoom rose nearly 3%. Citi raised its SpaceX price target to $240 from $200 and kept a 'Buy' rating after the company's three main segments beat its forecasts, and SpaceX shares climbed nearly 10%. Nvidia is up over 15% year to date and Zoom about 11% since the start of the year, while SpaceX has fallen nearly 1.5% since its June IPO.

- How Has Zoom's Story Changed?
Zoom Communications (ZM) trades at 5.7 times sales, versus 3.1 for the S&P 500. Management has moved its pitch from a unified communication and collaboration platform, as described in November 2024, to an AI-first, multi-product system of action, with ZoomMate, launched in June, as the centerpiece and Zoom Workplace called its foundation. In fiscal Q2 2027, enterprise made up 62% of revenue and grew 7.8%, its strongest rate in three years, which management credits to its AI priorities; licensed monthly active users of AI features in Zoom Workplace rose 125%. The company raised its fiscal 2027 revenue growth forecast to 4.5% at the midpoint from 4.1%, but expects online revenue to be flat, and churn from a white-label deal cut about 0.6 percentage points from enterprise growth in fiscal Q2.
- Zoom Adds 'Proof of Human' Badges to Show You're Not a Deepfake
World, the project backed by Sam Altman, has rolled out biometric verification badges for Zoom enterprise users to combat AI deepfake impersonation and fraud. Its World ID for Zoom is now available in the Zoom Marketplace and compares an image captured by its iris-scanning Orb, a live selfie and the participant's video feed before displaying a Human Badge to other meeting participants. The feature had been in limited beta testing with VanEck Funds since April and is now available globally to Zoom enterprise customers. Bain Capital and Pantera Capital were named as initial design partners. The rollout follows incidents such as a 2024 case in which an Arup employee transferred about $25 million after scammers impersonated executives during a video conference, and a February incident in which suspected North Korea-linked hackers used fabricated video feeds in fake Zoom meetings.

- SpaceX Can't Find Spare Nvidia, Google or Amazon Chips Despite Billions to Spend, Strategist Terms It 'Pretty Insane'
On its third-quarter earnings call, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk said he expects the shortage of superintelligence computing capacity to persist for years, with short-term compute contracts renewing at higher prices. SpaceX tried to shift some inference workloads to other cloud providers to free capacity for AI training, but could not find spare Nvidia GB300, GB200 or H100 systems, Google TPUs, or Amazon Trainium chips. Futurum strategist Shay Boloor said the shortage spans nearly every major chip architecture, making it harder to argue the AI compute market is in a broad glut. SpaceX reported third-quarter revenue of $14.58 billion, above estimates of $12.74 billion, and earnings of 35 cents per share versus 12 cents expected. Revenue rose 161% year over year, led by the Super Intelligence unit at $7.6 billion (up 830%), while Connectivity, including Starlink, grew 69% to $5.2 billion.
- Nvidia Stock Pops After Hours As Elon Musk Says SpaceX Is Adding 200,000 Chips a Month — Daniel Newman Says NVDA Is 'Ripping'
Nvidia shares rose more than 2% in after-hours trading after Elon Musk said on SpaceX’s third-quarter earnings call that the company is tracking to bring roughly 200,000 Nvidia GB300 chips online per month through year-end, with next year primarily Vera Rubin compute. Futurum Group CEO Daniel Newman said the news showed Nvidia’s projections playing out, while Shay Boloor estimated about 600,000 GPUs from SpaceX in the fourth quarter alone. SpaceX is reportedly seeking about $40 billion in loans and debt led by Apollo Global Management to buy the chips, and its third-quarter revenue of $14.58 billion and earnings of 35 cents per share beat estimates. Nvidia closed 0.29% lower at $216.47 in regular trading before rising to $221 in extended hours.

- CoreWeave's business model explained: Why investors are worried
The video likens CoreWeave to a landlord that borrowed heavily to buy 51 data centers and leases them to customers such as Microsoft and Meta. The speaker says it earned about $2.6 billion last quarter, roughly $1.5 billion after operating and capital costs, yet paid $640 million in debt repayments in the same period. Those payments are projected to rise by $300 million next year to $900 million, leaving the company about $626 million in the red after accounting for everything. Debt has grown to about $35 billion, with $10 billion due within 15 months against $5.5 billion in cash, while the company plans to spend around $6.4 billion on new data centers over the next three months. An online calculation cited in the video put the chance of default over the next three years at 55%, close to a coin flip.
- Big Tech's eMudhra fixes may leave crypto bots exposed, CertiK warns
CertiK says crypto trading bots and exchange apps may remain exposed to the eMudhra certificate flaw even though Google, Apple and Microsoft have blocked eight vulnerable certificates issued by India's eMudhra. Many applications outside the browser ecosystem do not enforce Certificate Transparency or receive the same revocation protections, so browser fixes may not cover them. Attackers could use compromised certificates to impersonate HTTPS connections to exchanges, wallets and APIs, replacing deposit addresses or tricking users into approving malicious transactions, though this would also require intercepting or redirecting users' traffic. CertiK urges operators to update their software and certificate trust stores and verify that their applications reject the affected certificates.
- Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan and Morgan Stanley are dominating the AI stock boom. Here's their edge
Fueled by the global AI stock boom, looser capital rules and greater lending to hedge funds, major Wall Street banks have already had a banner year in equities trading. The five largest investment banks generated about $67 billion in equities revenue through Sept. 30, $7 billion more than all of 2025. Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase and Morgan Stanley account for a combined $52 billion, nearly 80% of the total, with prime brokerage, which includes margin loans and securities lending to hedge funds, a key growth driver. At Goldman Sachs, equities financing rose 96% in the third quarter to a record $3.37 billion. Asia, especially South Korea and Taiwan, was the fastest-growing frontier for equities.
- From Cultural Appeal to Strategies for Growing Bank Value
VPBank is placing pop culture at the core of its development strategy, as its shares have risen nearly 27% since late July, well ahead of the nearly flat VN-Index. The bank co-organized and was main sponsor of two BIGBANG concerts in Hanoi, which drew more than 50 million access visits to the ticketing platform, and then brought the group's Official Pop-up Store to its Flagship at 89 Láng Hạ, where thousands of fans queued from 3-4 a.m. The article cites KB Kookmin Bank's partnership with Aespa since 2021 and UOB's use of Taylor Swift's The Eras Tour, and notes that 91 of the world's 100 most valuable bank brands sponsor sports, per Brand Finance Banking 500 2025. It says these moves turn customer experiences into a competitive advantage.
- SpaceX Bulls Rejoice: JPMorgan Sees 209% Upside
JPMorgan analyst Doug Anmuth more than doubled his SpaceX (SPCX) price target to $500 from $240 on Oct. 21, implying 209% upside, even though the stock is still well below its June 16 high. Third-quarter revenue rose 161% to $14.6 billion, and SpaceX swung to $4.4 billion of net income from a $1.1 billion loss, with first-quarter 2027 revenue guided to $33 billion–$37 billion. Analysts' 2027 EPS estimate has risen to $2.25 from $0.65 three months ago, yet $500 equals 222x that figure, versus a consensus target of $223 as of Oct. 20. The article calls the target plausible but stretched, holding only if the annual recurring revenue forecast from CEO Elon Musk materializes, with capex of $19.6 billion in the third quarter and $35–40 billion expected in the fourth as key risks.
