Fintech company SBS has introduced the SBS AI Foundation, a platform for generative and agentic AI in core banking, built on NVIDIA infrastructure. Banks can run it in private cloud, managed cloud or fully on-premises environments to keep AI within their own controls. It is already in production at UK client Scottish Building Society on Amazon Web Services and will now be offered to the hundreds of financial institutions SBS serves. The platform links data from core banking, lending, digital banking and regulatory reporting, and covers customer onboarding and engagement, a natural-language co-pilot for data analysis, and sovereign risk intelligence with a regulatory audit trail. SBS also plans to add agentic AI capabilities in the near future, using autonomous agents for multi-step workflows under human oversight.

- Semiconductor Sell-Off: 5 Stocks to Buy on the Dip
The article attributes the semiconductor selloff to investor doubts about the durability of AI infrastructure spending, even as cloud companies report strong demand for AI chips. It highlights five stocks: Nvidia (forward P/E just above 13.5 on fiscal 2028 estimates), Broadcom (custom AI chips, with that revenue expected to quadruple to $230 billion over two years; forward P/E of 11), AMD (riding inference and agentic AI demand), Cerebras Systems (high risk-reward; the company claims 30 times the inference speed of GPUs) and TSMC (forward P/E of 18 on 2027 estimates).
- AI stocks lead rebound on Wall Street as European markets drop
AI stocks recovered part of last week's steep losses on Wall Street, while European indexes fell more than 1% after violent weekend protests. The S&P 500 gained 0.4%, the Nasdaq rose 0.9%, and the Dow slipped 44 points, or 0.1%. CoreWeave rose 0.6% after trimming an early 7% gain, following a 25.2% plunge last week, and Nvidia added 0.6%. The 10-year Treasury yield edged up to 5.10%, after touching 5.30% earlier this month, its highest level since 2002. Brent crude fell 1.6% to $108.13 a barrel, and Cleveland-Cliffs jumped 7.7% after reporting a bigger-than-expected quarterly profit.
- Nvidia wins CPU business from Modal, previously exclusive to AMD and Intel
Modal, a San Francisco-based AI cloud startup that previously ran its AI agent workloads only on Intel and AMD processors, will begin using Nvidia's new Vera CPU. Early tests showed the Nvidia chip doubled work capacity for AI agents, and Modal plans to run it alongside Intel and AMD chips, assigning each task to the most efficient hardware, though integration requires substantial software changes. Modal recently raised $750 million in a round led by Accel at a $15.75 billion valuation and expects $1 billion in sales over the next year, with usage tripled and revenue up more than 15 times year-over-year. Nvidia projects at least $20 billion in Vera chip revenue this fiscal year in a market it estimates at about $200 billion, and says OpenAI, Anthropic, Oracle and Perplexity also plan to use the chips.
- Nebius is Your New AI Sentiment Gauge For AI Debt and GPU Risks
Nebius (NBIS) fell 25.15% in one week to $165.47 as neocloud stocks sold off after a Gartner forecast that over 80% of neocloud providers will stop operating independently by 2030. The article highlights strong results: second-quarter revenue rose 454% to $582.3 million, above the $574.65 million consensus, and remaining performance obligations reached $37.5 billion. Against that, Nebius guides to $20 billion to $25 billion of 2026 capex on $3 billion to $3.4 billion of revenue, carries about $10.0 billion of convertible principal, and its quarterly interest expense rose to $119.1 million from $4.8 million. The article rates Nebius a Hold and says the stock now moves with AI credit conditions, with the verdict tied to upcoming reports and financing choices.
- AI stocks lead rebound on Wall Street as European markets drop
AI stocks recovered part of last week's steep losses on Wall Street, while the broader U.S. market and global stocks stayed shaky. As of 10 a.m. Eastern, the S&P 500 rose 0.4% and the Nasdaq Composite gained 0.9%, while the Dow Jones fell 44 points, or 0.1%. European indexes dropped more than 1%, with Paris down 1.5%, after violent weekend protests raised the prospect of higher government spending and more pressure on bond markets. CoreWeave rose 0.6% after trimming an early 7% gain, and Nvidia added 0.6%, one of the strongest forces lifting the S&P 500. The 10-year Treasury yield rose to 5.10%, after topping 5.30% earlier this month, its highest level since 2002, while Brent crude fell 1.6% to $108.13 per barrel.
- Dell Technologies (DELL) Lands Core AI Infrastructure Role In New Industrial Platform
Honeywell has selected Dell Technologies (DELL) as a core AI infrastructure partner for its new Forge Cognition platform, working with NVIDIA to power building and industrial automation across data center and edge locations. Early pilots are running at major global facilities, applying agentic AI and digital twin tools to physical operations. The analysis says the partnership supports the bull case that Dell's infrastructure is being built into long-life physical operations projects, but notes that tight component supply and mid-single-digit margins on AI GPU systems could affect how quickly Dell's AI backlog turns into richer storage and services revenue. It cites a $594 fair value for Dell in its own narrative.

- Russia fires mysterious weapon at Kyiv, shockwaves spread; President Putin appears in rare image, drawing global attention
On the night of 18 Oct, Russia launched a coordinated strike on multiple Ukrainian targets using ballistic missiles, cruise missiles and Geran UAVs, focused on Kyiv. According to TST, around 10 ballistic missiles of the Iskander-M, S-400 or KN-23 types may have been used in the first wave; an above-ground metro station on Kyiv's left bank was reported damaged, disrupting rail and metro services, and videos of blue flashes led observers to suspect a new weapon. In western Ukraine, a 330 kV transformer station near Kovel may have been targeted. Meanwhile, Putin, who rarely appears in military uniform, visited a command post and stressed establishing a “security zone” along the border; blogger Yuri Podolyaka argued Moscow no longer treats these areas as bargaining chips. Front-line correspondent Alexander Kots said the part of Donetsk still controlled by Ukraine is just over 2,700 km².
- Tom Lee’s Bitmine Adds $30 Million in Ethereum as Buying Nears Its Finish Line
Bitmine bought another 12,535 ETH (about $30 million), lifting its holdings to 6,041,481 ETH, or 4.9% of supply and 99% of its 5% target. Chairman Tom Lee blamed the crypto selloff on a broad risk-off shift, including AI funding and safety worries, U.S.-Iran tensions, midterm jitters and rising bond yields, and called the dip a historically attractive risk-reward entry. Total holdings reached $15.1 billion as of Oct. 18, including 215 Bitcoin, $582 million in cash and marketable securities, and other investments. About 84% of its ETH (5,067,309 tokens) is staked via its MAVAN platform, with projected annualized revenue of roughly $309 million. The position is currently underwater on paper because much of it was bought at higher prices.
- Opinion: The Most Important Number in Taiwan Semiconductor's Earnings Report Was 68%
The author argues the most important figure in TSMC's Q3 report is 68%, the share of revenue from high-performance computing (HPC), which grew 22% from the prior quarter. Revenue reached $46.72 billion, up 41.2% year over year, net income rose 68.7%, and gross margin hit 66.4%. Processes at 7nm and below made up 79% of wafer revenue, with 3nm at 33% and 2nm at 8%. TSMC guided Q4 revenue to $52.3–54.3 billion and expects roughly 44% full-year growth in U.S. dollars. The author remains bullish, saying ongoing demand for advanced AI chips should keep profits rising.
- Why Meta's Q3 earnings could be a little hard to interpret
Meta is reporting its third-quarter earnings after the market closes Wednesday, and Yahoo Finance's Brian Sozzi says the report will be hard to interpret. Recent good news on Meta's AI products, including new models and an AI agent, may not appear directly in the results but will likely be discussed on the earnings call. The key uncertainty is how investors will react if Meta raises its capex outlook again: it could be seen as fueling those products, or as overspending on offerings not yet reflected in financials. Sozzi expects the market to give Meta the benefit of the doubt on higher capex, as long as the increase does not shock investors.
- Canada inflation rate rises above 3 % on higher energy prices
Statistics Canada reported that consumer prices rose 3.1% year over year in September, up from 3% in August, mainly because energy prices were 19% higher than a year earlier. Grocery prices rose 1.7%, the smallest annual increase since May 2024, and shelter prices rose 1.8%. Core measures were steady, with CPI-median at 1.9% and CPI-trim at 1.8%, a bit softer than economists expected. Bank of Canada Governor Tiff Macklem warned that the risk of inflation broadening and becoming more persistent has risen, while BMO and TD still expect rates to stay on hold through 2027, though BMO's Robert Kavcic said a rate hike is possible.
