Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said a vessel carrying about 40,000 tons of diesel will depart today, October 22, for the US, though he did not name the port; Putin said further shipments would follow. The shipment is the latest step in a US–Russia energy arrangement announced by Trump on 9/10, which envisaged more than 300,000 tons immediately, 500,000 tons in November and one million tons afterward. The first cargo equals only about 13% of the initial tranche, though Moscow says more cargoes are being prepared. Diesel retail prices in the US have stayed above $6 per gallon since September, pressuring transport and agriculture ahead of the 3/11 midterm elections, and Washington hopes returning Russian supply will cool the market. Ukraine and some Western allies have objected, fearing the deal will give Moscow more energy revenue while fighting continues.

- Trump waives new Russia sanctions
President Donald Trump has temporarily waived for 60 days some sanctions targeting Russia's energy sector and economy, saying he is negotiating peace in the war with Ukraine and does not want to push Russia away from the bargaining table. The waived measures come from the bipartisan Lindsey Graham Act, passed last month, which also targets Russian President Vladimir Putin, senior military leaders, Russian financial institutions, a “shadow fleet” of oil tankers, and countries buying Russian oil and gas, including China and India. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the pause is meant to see whether ongoing talks can lead to a positive outcome. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy called the decision “unfortunate” and a historic mistake, and bipartisan lawmakers also criticized it. The move comes as U.S. gas prices have risen more than 34% year over year.

- SpaceX gives the AI trade a shot in the arm. What it means for our stocks
SpaceX shares rose about 7% after the company reported strong third-quarter results and a robust outlook through year-end and into 2027. The article argues that SpaceX's rocket, AI and connectivity business touches many layers of the AI supply chain, from power and semiconductors to data center infrastructure, models and applications. Musk said the main constraint on deploying AI compute is now power, cooling and infrastructure rather than chips, and SpaceX plans to bring 2.5 to 3 gigawatts of compute online by year-end and about 10 GW in 2027. Its agentic AI product Grok Bot previously had 800,000 paid weekly users, and the article points to GE Vernova and Eaton as possible beneficiaries of this demand.
- United Airlines Jumps 6% as Record Revenue Forecast Outweighs Fuel-Cost Squeeze; American Airlines Climbs 4%, Delta Rises 3%
United Airlines (NASDAQ:UAL) climbed 6% to $103.88 in afternoon trading as investors focused on a record revenue outlook rather than a sharp rise in fuel costs that weighed on quarterly profit. The carrier reported record operating revenue of $17.9 billion for Q3 2026 and forecast Q4 2026 top-line growth above 20% year over year. Management said it is highly confident of recovering the full fuel cost increase, though with a lag, as fares have only partly caught up with jet fuel prices. American Airlines rose 4% and Delta 3%, while the U.S. Global Jets ETF gained 2%.
- Anthropic Has Over $600 Billion in Compute Contracts — And It's Not Enough

- ASML Has Incredible News for Nvidia Stock and Micron Stock Investors
ASML, which holds a monopoly on the EUV lithography machines used to make advanced AI chips, reported strong third-quarter 2026 revenue and earnings growth and said it is struggling to meet customer demand. It sold 113 new lithography systems in the quarter, up from 66 a year earlier. Management said demand for AI hardware will outpace supply through at least 2028, and customers are seeking orders for 2029 and 2030. The article argues this supports a favorable pricing backdrop for Nvidia and Micron, even though their shares have fallen 9% and 13% respectively since Oct. 6. Micron's revenue rose 256% to $133.19 billion in fiscal 2026.
- Nvidia's $1.1 Billion KYEC Deal Is the Small Number in a $279 Billion Supply Bet
Nvidia is giving KYEC a $1.1 billion capacity reservation advance to build new U.S. chip-testing facilities, with high-volume production targeted for April 2027, as one of six supplier deals announced together. Substrate agreements with IBIDEN, Samsung Electro-Mechanics and Unimicron target 2.5 times today's capacity over three years, and Amkor plans to grow advanced packaging capacity by more than 300% by end-2028. Nvidia's supply and capacity commitments rose to $279 billion as of July 26, from $119 billion a quarter earlier, mainly for memory and manufacturing facilities. The article notes the cash test is tighter: free cash flow fell to $21.40 billion in the July quarter from $48.59 billion, while inventory more than doubled to $21.40 billion at the end of fiscal 2026. The next checkpoint is Nvidia's Q3 fiscal 2027 report, expected November 18.
- The simple reason JPMorgan thinks SpaceX will triple: It's going after a $28 trillion market
SpaceX (SPCX) rose 10% on Wednesday after reporting its second earnings as a public company, which showed a profit and large AI revenue. JPMorgan analyst Doug Anmuth more than doubled his price target to $500 from $240, implying upside of over 200% from Wednesday's price.
