At its GTC event in Berlin, Nvidia (NVDA) unveiled the DSX POD, a reference design for an AI data center packed into a box about the size of a standard shipping container. Vera Rubin-powered DSX PODs will arrive on site ready to plug into power, cooling and networking, reducing deployment time from six months to 14 days. Nvidia says the units won't replace traditional data centers but let customers start running AI applications before brick-and-mortar facilities are ready. The DSX POD supports liquid cooling and, using dry-cooler designs, can save up to 54 million liters of water per day versus a standard data center. Nvidia is working with Anduril, Armada, Bull, Crusoe, Dell Technologies (DELL), Foxconn and others to begin delivery in early 2027, while the article notes that power supply is another bottleneck for data center builders.

- How do you know what's real?: US utilities are making AI data centers prove they exist before handing over power connections as 50% of planned buildouts are currently being delayed, stalled, or canceled
US utilities are making AI data center developers prove projects are real, using higher rates, collateral, longer contracts and study fees to weed out “phantom” demand, since grid costs are shared. Developers have requested 1,066GW of connections, but Wood Mackenzie expects utilities to serve only about 28%. Exelon’s high-probability data center load fell from 18GW to about 11GW after it required binding agreements, yet its $41 billion capital plan is unchanged. PJM’s market monitor said 4,017MW of forecast data center load had been canceled or delayed, and households may bear the costs. Average minimum contract lengths for large customers have risen to about 10.8 years from 4.6 before 2024.
- Tech companies need more data centers. So why are nearly half of all planned projects delayed or canceled?
Global hyperscale spending is projected at about $700 billion, yet many U.S. data center projects are running late: according to the Sandstone Group, nearly half of planned projects are behind schedule, while industry research puts 30% to 50% of the 16 GW of U.S. capacity due online at risk of severe delays or cancellation. Allianz Research cites lengthy permitting, a shortage of roughly 439,000 skilled construction workers, and electrical equipment deficits as key reasons. In markets such as Northern Virginia, Phoenix and Dallas, waits to clear grid interconnection queues routinely run four to seven years. Oracle and OpenAI also scrapped plans to expand the 1,000-acre Crusoe Energy-developed AI campus in Abilene, Texas, from 1.2 GW to 2.0 GW, after negotiations stalled over financing and utility timelines.

- Jensen Huang: “Two Gigawatts to Us Is Like $80 Billion.” 43 New Gigawatts Coming in 2027
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said two gigawatts of AI capacity, like the ones Nvidia announced in Australia, are worth about $80 billion to the company, up from about $18 billion per gigawatt previously. He attributed the increase to Nvidia now selling far more of each data center, including networking, CPUs, storage and security, not just GPUs. Citing SemiAnalysis's Dylan Patel on the BG2 podcast, Altimeter Capital's Brad Gerstner said 43 gigawatts of new AI compute will come online next year. At about $40 billion per gigawatt, Nvidia would need around 17 gigawatts to reach the $692 billion revenue estimate for fiscal 2028, though Huang said land, power and data center buildings are the main obstacles to the build-out.

Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META) reports third-quarter earnings after the market closes on Wednesday, as investors look for returns on its heavy AI spending and for comments from CEO Mark Zuckerberg. Analysts expect earnings of $5.89 per share on revenue of $63.36 billion.
- 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.
