- NiSource announces long - term agreement with Microsoft expected to increase customer savings and support Indiana economic growth | Government
NiSource (NYSE: NI) announced a new long-term energy agreement with Microsoft for its northwest Indiana campus, under which new large-load customers are served through NiSource Generation Company LLC (GenCo) in a way designed to shield existing NIPSCO electric customers from incremental costs. The deal builds on previously disclosed expected customer savings of $1.4 billion over the life of data center contracts, raising total expected NIPSCO electric customer savings to approximately $1.75 billion, or as much as $140 per customer annually. Microsoft is expected to begin taking electric service under a 20-year term starting in 2028 and will fully fund the generation and transmission it requires, while the GenCo-owned pool portfolio will grow by about 1,100 MW. GenCo has also contracted 600 MW of battery storage under a long-term tolling agreement, and CEO Lloyd Yates said affordability is not separate from economic development. Further operational and financial details will be shared on the company's third-quarter earnings call.

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

- 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.
