Rising interest rates have pushed down bond prices, with 10-year U.S. Treasuries recording one of their steepest multi-year declines since the 18th century. The article highlights three U.S. stocks that a Simply Wall St cash flow screen considers attractively priced relative to their future cash flow potential: NVIDIA, Wells Fargo and J.B. Hunt Transport Services. NVIDIA generated about US$275.4b from Compute & Networking and US$27.6b from Graphics, with a market cap of US$5,170.6b, and the piece notes that an open-source or cheaper alternative to its CUDA platform could weaken its moat. Wells Fargo, with a market cap of US$251.7b, grew average loans 12% and average deposits 10% year over year in 2Q26 after the removal of its asset cap, while J.B. Hunt, with a market cap of US$21.3b and US$13.3b in revenue, recorded record intermodal volume of over 578,000 loads in Q2 2026.

- Is Nvidia (NVDA) Stock Priced Right?
Chip stocks fell sharply last week, and Nvidia (NVDA) dropped nearly 2% as investors worried that heavily indebted AI companies would face higher borrowing costs after bond yields jumped for CoreWeave, a cloud company Nvidia backs. CoreWeave shares had fallen more than 15% the day before. Nvidia's own numbers show no sign of that stress: it sold $96.2 billion of chips and systems in the quarter ended July, up 106% from a year earlier, mostly from data center sales. Its net profit margin was 63.66% over the past 12 months, and management expects $108.0 billion in revenue next quarter, assuming no data center sales to China. The key risk is whether customers can keep paying for chips if interest rates stay high, and the planned partnerships to bring over $500 billion of outside capital into AI infrastructure have not yet become definitive agreements.
- Billionaire CEO : AI Is The Biggest Bubble Of Our Lifetime , But Investors Should Keep Buying During The Melt - Up
Galaxy Digital CEO Mike Novogratz called AI the “biggest bubble of our lifetime” at the Greenwich Economic Forum in early October, yet urged investors to keep buying as the S&P 500 hit a record and NVIDIA's market value neared $6 trillion. He argued AI-linked stocks still look cheap on a P/E basis, that rising long-term borrowing costs won't stop the rally, and that competition with China makes a slowdown in AI development unlikely. NVIDIA reported fiscal second-quarter revenue of $96.22B, up 105.8% year over year, and its market value now stands at $5.21 trillion. Since the panel, the September CPI report released Oct. 14 showed prices up 3.7% from a year earlier, above the 3.6% expected, and the S&P 500 and Nasdaq fell in morning trading. Novogratz says he watches signals such as spiking bond yields, stocks and the dollar falling together, and foreign selling of Treasuries.
- Billionaire CEO: AI Is “The Biggest Bubble Of Our Lifetime,” But Investors Should Keep Buying During The Melt-Up
Galaxy Digital CEO Mike Novogratz called AI the 'biggest bubble of our lifetime' at a Greenwich Economic Forum panel in early October, while still urging investors to keep buying. He argues AI-linked stocks still look cheap on a price-to-earnings basis, that rising long-term borrowing costs are not enough to stop the rally, and that competition with China makes it unlikely AI development will slow. The S&P 500 hit a record and NVIDIA's market value approached $6 trillion, driven by heavy spending, with NVIDIA trading at about 43 times trailing earnings and Microsoft at about 29. Ray Dalio warned rising rates could bring the bubble closer to collapse, while DBS's Hou Wey Fook noted NVIDIA's earnings multiple is near its lowest since 2016. The September CPI rose 3.7% from a year earlier, above the 3.6% expected, and the Fed's late-October meeting is the next key test.
- Billionaire CEO : AI Is The Biggest Bubble Of Our Lifetime , But Investors Should Keep Buying During The Melt - Up
Galaxy Digital CEO Mike Novogratz called AI “the biggest bubble of our lifetime” at a Greenwich Economic Forum panel in early October, yet urged investors to keep buying. He says AI stocks still look cheap on price-to-earnings and rising long-term borrowing costs are not enough to stop the rally, while competition with China makes slowing AI development unlikely. His exit signals are stocks and the dollar falling together, spiking bond yields and foreign selling of Treasuries. The article notes NVIDIA revenue rose 105.8% to $96.22B, top-five hyperscalers are projected to spend $1.3 trillion on capex in 2027, and NVIDIA trades near 43 times trailing earnings versus about 29 for Microsoft. After the panel, CPI rose 3.7% against 3.6% expected, and the S&P 500 fell about 0.95%.
- 'The Major Ones All End Badly': Pulitzer-Winning Crash Historian on US Stocks at 250% of GDP
Liaquat Ahamed, author of Lords of Finance, warns that $1 trillion of foreign inflows over the past 12 months has pushed US stocks to 250% of GDP, a ratio he says historically precedes collapse. He notes real interest rates rose 150 basis points in 12 months, leaving NVIDIA's 2.32% earnings yield well below the 5.09% 10-year Treasury yield. He compares today's AI buildout to the 1870s railroad boom, when only one in five railroads paid dividends by 1872 before collapsing. The article also cites NVIDIA's roughly $5.2 trillion market cap and $279.00 billion in supply obligations.
- ‘The Major Ones All End Badly’: Pulitzer-Winning Crash Historian on US Stocks at 250% of GDP
Pulitzer-winning historian Liaquat Ahamed warns that US equities, including private equity, sit at 250% of GDP after a trillion dollars flowed in from foreigners over the past 12 months, and that such booms usually end badly once rising rates choke off cheap financing. He points to a 150-basis-point rise in real rates, with the 10-year Treasury yield at 5.19% on October 14, 2026, and compares today's AI spending with the 1873 railroad bubble, which was financed largely by bonds. The article highlights NVIDIA, with a $5.2 trillion market cap, whose 2.32% earnings yield trails the 5.09% yield on the 10-year Treasury.

- Amazon (AMZN) Stock Costs $250 a Share. Here's Why I'd Still Buy It.
The article argues that Amazon, trading at about $250 a share, is still worth buying for the author, who would buy it if he did not already own it. The main reason is that the stock looks appealingly valued: its forward P/E of about 24 is well below its five-year average of 39, while its price-to-sales ratio of 3.6 is slightly above the five-year average of 3. Amazon ranked fourth in the 2026 Kantar BrandZ Global Top 100, with a brand value of $1 trillion, and its shares have averaged annual gains of 22% over the past 15 years. The author stresses that a stock's absolute price means little on its own, so investors should compare it with earnings and sales and research each company in depth.
- Amazon Just Made Its AI Chips Easier to Use. Should Nvidia Investors Be Worried?
Amazon announced TorchNeuron, a free open-source tool that lets developers run existing PyTorch code on its Trainium chips with minimal changes, with a public beta due on Oct. 20. This challenges a key part of Nvidia's moat, because switching away from CUDA typically carries large costs in time and labor. However, the tool only covers PyTorch work, custom CUDA code will not port easily, and the release is still in beta, with the ease-of-switching claims coming from Amazon itself. Google is also developing a similar tool, TorchTPU. The author sees it as a chink in Nvidia's narrative and does not expect a major near-term effect on order flow or pricing power, but says the market may no longer pay quite the same premium for Nvidia stock.
- Cisco Systems (CSCO) Unveiled 102.4T AI Networking Platforms
Cisco Systems unveiled new AI networking platforms built on Silicon One P200, G300 and G302 switching chips, with 51.2T and 102.4T systems. It also introduced 1.6T optical modules and integrated liquid cooling aimed at high-density AI data centers, and disclosed a collaboration with NVIDIA, TE Connectivity and Amphenol to co-develop a 400Gb/s per lane USFP optical module and open specification. The company has a market cap of US$423.4b. The article says the launch supports Cisco's position as an AI networking provider competing with Arista and Juniper, but the richer hardware mix adds to margin pressure that has already contributed to non-GAAP gross margin compression.
