- Is Capital One Financial a Buy After Its Latest Earnings Report?
Capital One beat analyst estimates on profit and slightly on revenue in the third quarter, with revenue of $16.3 billion (up 6%) and adjusted net income of nearly $4.1 billion, or $6.69 per share, versus $5.50 expected. Card purchase volume rose 11% to nearly $255 billion, helped by moving debit card transactions onto its own network after acquiring Discover. Consumer banking revenue grew 17% to $3.3 billion, and loans held for investment rose 13% to just over $94 billion, though the article warns loan growth may slow after the Federal Reserve's rate hike at the end of September. Commercial banking revenue was flat at $901 million.

- LPBank: Construction loan balance surges by VND 48,000 billion in Q3, record profit driven by service income
In Q3/2026, LPBank's construction loan balance rose by nearly VND 48,000 billion, lifting the sector's share of total loans above 20% and making it the second-largest group after wholesale, retail, and auto and motorbike repair. Q3 pre-tax profit reached VND 4,448 billion, up nearly 29% year on year and the highest quarterly profit on record, while net interest income fell about 7.4%. The gap was offset by net service income of VND 3,395 billion, nearly four times the prior-year level. For the first nine months, pre-tax profit totaled VND 10,421 billion, up 8% and about 70% of the full-year plan of VND 14,982 billion. Other service income made up over 91% of service income, but the financial statements do not break it down, so the reasons for its sharp rise cannot be determined.

Pathward (CASH) reported fourth-quarter net income of $38.6 million and diluted EPS of $1.85, with full-year fiscal 2026 diluted EPS at $8.14.

The nonperforming loans and leases ratio rose to 5.61% due to certain renewable energy construction projects, and net charge-offs totaled $52 million in the quarter. The company guided fiscal 2027 EPS to $9.50 to $10.00 and extended its contract with H&R Block through mid-2030.
- What Pathward Financial ( CASH ) Said on Its Q4 Earnings Call
Pathward Financial (NASDAQ:CASH) said its fourth-quarter and fiscal 2026 results reflected growth in commercial finance and payments fee income, while it continues to work through credit issues tied partly to renewable energy projects. Full-year net income reached $175.7 million, or $8.14 per diluted share, with return on average assets at 2.30% and loans and leases up 9%. The nonperforming loans ratio rose modestly to 5.61%, and net charge-offs were $52 million in the quarter, including $20.3 million in commercial finance; management said these remain concentrated in previously disclosed credits. The company expects credit costs to normalize during fiscal 2027 and reiterated EPS guidance of $9.50 to $10, assuming no further rate changes.

- Lake Shore Bancorp , Inc . Announces Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results
Lake Shore Bancorp reported unaudited third-quarter 2026 net income of $2.3 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, compared with $2.4 million, or $0.32 per share, a year earlier. For the first nine months, net income rose to $6.4 million, or $0.87 per diluted share, from $5.3 million. Net interest income grew $786,000, or 12.4%, year over year, partly offset by a higher provision for credit losses. The year-over-year decline in quarterly net income was attributed to two one-time non-interest income events in third-quarter 2025. Net interest margin rose to 4.17% from 3.72% a year earlier, the efficiency ratio improved to 60.95%, and the bank remains well capitalized with a Tier 1 Leverage ratio of 17.56%.
- Eagle Bancorp, Inc. Announces Third Quarter 2026 Results
Eagle Bancorp reported third-quarter 2026 net income of $24.2 million, or $0.79 per share, up $17.3 million from the second quarter, mainly because its provision for credit losses was $18.6 million lower. Net interest income fell $1.0 million, noninterest income fell $1.2 million, and noninterest expense rose $3.1 million, so pre-provision net revenue dropped to $23.8 million from $29.1 million. Nonperforming assets rose $52.9 million to $166.0 million, mostly due to one significant relationship, and CEO Steve Curley said the asset quality work is not complete.

- Musk's wants to merge SpaceX and Tesla: Here's what to know
Musk said SpaceX and Tesla have formed special committees to study a merger, which would be worth about $3.5 trillion combined and would be the largest corporate deal in history. SpaceX, valued at about $2 trillion after a record listing this year, absorbed Musk's AI startup xAI in February, while Tesla is valued at about $1.5 trillion. Musk holds about 82 percent of SpaceX's voting power but only about 20 percent at Tesla. Dan Ives puts the odds of a deal at 90 percent by early 2027, though Musk called the requirement of a majority of all Tesla shares 'quite a high hurdle'. Loyal retail investors hold an estimated 25 to 27 percent of Tesla shares, and legal obstacles appear slight because both companies moved their incorporation to Texas from Delaware.
- CoreWeave and Nebius Stocks Are Crashing. Time to Buy the Dip?
Shares of Nebius and CoreWeave each fell 25% in the week of October 12 to 16. The sell-off stems from the yield on CoreWeave's debt in the secondary market surging to 15%, versus roughly 5% on Treasuries, which pushes the debt into 'distressed' territory and signals doubts about its ability to meet obligations. Nebius sold off in sympathy as a fellow neocloud company. The bigger concern is that both companies must keep issuing debt to fund data centers, and if yields are high at issuance, the assumption of nearly unlimited cheap capital could be challenged. The author says it is unclear whether now is the time to buy.
- Disney’s multiplatform Super Bowl plan frustrates ABC affiliates
ABC station owners are irritated that Disney is airing the Super Bowl across several platforms, including Disney+, ESPN2, NFL Network and ESPNU, even though the game is already on ABC and ESPN. A station group CEO estimates that the combined platforms could cut broadcast ad revenue by up to 35% compared with last year. Local affiliates typically earn about 3% of annual ad revenue from the Super Bowl and pay network owners reverse retransmission fees, but Disney+ lacks geofenced ad insertion, so affiliates cannot sell ads to streaming viewers. Disney says national commercials will be identical on all platforms and that streaming major live events is standard industry practice. Super Bowl LX drew 125.6 million viewers in February.
- Nasdaq sell-off: A momentum unwind 'for the record books'
Matt Stucky, chief portfolio manager for equities at Northwestern Mutual Wealth Management, calls Thursday’s sell-off in the Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) a momentum unwind “for the record books.” He says the market spent the first half of 2026 driven by a beta and momentum trade led by semiconductors, but in the third quarter, as rates rose, money shifted into quality stocks. He does not think the sell-off is justified by fundamentals, arguing that institutional portfolio managers swapping out of factor positions can drag down whole baskets of stocks. In semiconductors, spot rental rates for Nvidia Blackwell chips are higher than a month ago, showing tightening compute supply, even as financing costs rise and investors worry about neocloud business models and the rising cost of insuring their bonds.
- Meta’s deal to keep Zuckerberg in California adds fuel to wealth tax debate ahead of election
Meta says Mark Zuckerberg will remain in California for eight years and has created a new stock plan that could help cover his taxes if Proposition 40, a 5% tax on Californians worth over $1 billion, passes on Election Day on Nov. 3. According to a filing released with its third-quarter earnings, Meta will issue non-voting Class C shares starting in January, and Zuckerberg can sell or transfer up to 20% of the shares granted to him without affecting his majority voting control. The filing says Zuckerberg’s leadership is crucial to the company’s growth and its AI ambitions, including Meta Superintelligence Labs. Most of the tech industry opposes the measure, while a recent Citrin-Politico poll found 46% in favor and 43% against, suggesting it may fall short of the majority support it needs.
- Dune launches real-time data feeds covering 200 onchain trading venues

Early clients include quant funds, market makers, asset managers and bank trading desks, which use the data to assess liquidity and compare prices, though Dune did not name them. Meanwhile, the tokenized stock market has grown sharply, with distributed value reaching $3.58 billion, but 16 companies, including Microsoft, Alphabet and Goldman Sachs, have objected to their shares being traded on OKXICE’s proposed platform, and liquidity remains fragmented.
