- A Record Number of S&P 500 Companies Issued Upbeat Guidance Before Earnings Season. Should You Buy an Index Fund Now?
FactSet reports that 72 S&P 500 companies issued third-quarter EPS guidance above Wall Street's average estimates, the most for any quarter since it began tracking in 2006 and above the previous record of 65 in Q2 2021. Of 116 companies giving guidance, 62% pointed higher versus a five-year average of 40%, while only 44 guided lower. Technology accounts for 44 of the positive guides, led by software and chipmakers, and FactSet raised its Q3 earnings growth estimate for the index to 29.6% year over year.

- Nvidia CEO urges German manufacturers to adopt AI, saying digital tech won't replace heavy industry
- Why I am taking the other side of the trade that crushed the market Friday
The author argues that last week's sell-off, especially Friday's, does not mean the data center and AI 'super-cycle' is over. He suggests the selling may instead reflect unwinding positions and the collapse of a hedge fund that borrowed billions from a firm that has not yet disclosed its losses. He notes that semiconductors fell nine straight days and CoreWeave's corporate bond yields spiked, arguing the bond market is squeezing debt-funded buyers. He defends Nvidia and CEO Jensen Huang, saying Nvidia's funding of AI companies differs from the circa-2000 'vendor finance' that benefited vendors whose customers did not need their products. He believes AI demand is real, citing OpenAI, Anthropic and Google's Gemini, which have monetized AI at scale.
- Own VGT? Here's How Much of It Is Really Nvidia, Apple, Microsoft, and Broadcom.
The Vanguard Information Technology ETF (VGT) is a passive index fund holding 318 technology stocks. Nvidia, Apple, Microsoft and Broadcom together made up about 49% of the fund's assets as of Sept. 30. The fund has averaged 15.03% annual returns since its January 2004 inception, with 24.7% over 10 years, 20.9% over five years, 35% over three years and 35.2% over the past year. VGT does not hold Alphabet, Amazon, Meta or Tesla because they are not classified as information technology under its benchmark. The article notes that investors worried about this concentration could instead buy an S&P 500 or Nasdaq-100 ETF for broader diversification.

- Winning over Vingroup and Sun Group with concrete and special materials: Vietnamese company's profit up 136%, chairman speaks out
Song Da Cao Cuong (SCL) reported Q3/2026 profit of VND 38 billion, up 136%, on net revenue of over VND 263 billion (up nearly 98%), while gross profit margin rose from about 36% to 41%.

- UPS Yields 6.7% After Firing Amazon. Here's Whether the Dividend Survives 2027.
UPS shares yield 6.7% as of October 16. The company has moved away from high-volume, low-margin Amazon deliveries and froze its dividend earlier this year, ending a 16-year streak of increases. The article says the payout will likely remain frozen through 2026 and 2027, citing competition from 10- and 30-year Treasury yields above 5% and other industrial dividend payers, but calls the dividend's safety questionable: UPS generated $5.47 billion in free cash flow in 2025, with $5.4 billion going to dividends, and free cash flow is projected to fall to $5.05 billion in 2026 and $5.01 billion in 2027, with the dividend absorbing about 98% of 2026 free cash flow. Rising competition and high fuel prices add pressure, and the article suggests investors may find more safety in the industrial sector.
- Asian shares mostly decline after AI stocks lead a rebound on Wall Street
Asian shares mostly fell in cautious trading on Tuesday after AI-related stocks rebounded on Wall Street, while other sectors stayed shaky and oil prices stayed high. Japan's Nikkei 225 slipped 0.6% to 64,512.35 in early trading, South Korea's Kospi dropped 2.8%, and Australia's S&P/ASX 200 lost 0.8%. On Wall Street, the S&P 500 rose 0.4% and the Nasdaq gained 1.1%, helped by Nvidia's 1.4% gain, while most stocks outside AI and tech fell and the Dow slipped 0.1%. The 10-year Treasury yield climbed to 5.14%, and U.S. crude rose to $103.50 a barrel and Brent to $109.47, as uncertainty about when the energy industry will return to normal after the war with Iran means oil is unlikely to ease soon.

- What Could X-Energy (XE) Gain From Its 960MW Indiana Nuclear Project?
X-Energy (NasdaqGS:XE), American Electric Power and Amazon agreed to assess a 960 MW advanced nuclear project in Indiana using Xe-100 reactors, on a former coal plant site. Under the joint development agreement, Amazon would provide development funding and commit to a long-term power purchase. The article says the deal offers commercial validation for X-Energy's reactor platform rather than immediate financial relief, as the company, with a $4.3b market cap, reported $150.28 million in revenue, a $448.87 million loss, and a 20.2x price-to-sales ratio. The next key milestone is whether the study reaches a final investment decision for the Sullivan County site.
