- Reply Earns "NVIDIA Physical AI Specialization" for Production-Ready Robotics and Digital Twins
Reply [EXM, STAR: REY] is among the first NVIDIA partners worldwide to earn the Physical AI Specialization within the NVIDIA Partner Network, recognizing its expertise in deploying AI-driven robotics and digital twins in real operating environments. The award followed a technical assessment covering a customer implementation, solution architecture, certified OpenUSD expertise and its development roadmap. A current example is Roboverse Reply's work with Otto Group and NVIDIA on a virtual control system at the Hermes Fulfilment logistics centre in Loehne, Germany, which connects autonomous mobile robots from different manufacturers to fleet-management and warehouse systems. Simulating and validating new layouts and workflows in NVIDIA Omniverse and Isaac before deployment speeds integration, reduces the risk of testing in live operations, and provides a blueprint for other Otto Group sites.
- Zcash Developer Zakura Proposes Fix to Stop Quantum Computers Linking Shielded Swaps
Zcash full node developer Zakura has proposed “one-time” viewing keys to stop a future quantum computer from linking a user's shielded Zcash payments. The biggest risk is swaps through NEAR Intents, where each swap out of ZEC posts one of the user's shielded addresses to NEAR's public chain as a refund address, and around $600 million to $700 million had flowed through that route by May, according to Zcash Open Development Lab CEO Josh Swihart. The fix derives a separate incoming viewing key for each published address while leaving the spending key untouched, so a quantum attacker who breaks one address would only see payments to that address. The approach needs no network upgrade, and wallets built on Zakura's open-source libraries, such as Vizor, can add it in the coming weeks, with hardware wallets to follow. At the time of reporting, ZEC traded at $1,165, up 3.6% on the day.

- Fed Rate Decision: What Markets and Bitcoin Traders Can Expect
The Fed announces its rate decision at 2 p.m. ET today, with Chair Kevin Warsh's press conference to follow, and futures and prediction markets put the odds of a hold above 90%. The target range is 3.75%–4.00% after September's 12-0 hike, and inflation was 3.7% in the 12 months through September, with oil near $100 a barrel. Hiring is slowing, with employers adding just 29,000 jobs in September against forecasts of about 90,000. Higher inflation pushes up Treasury yields, with the 10-year near 5% after peaking at 5.31% on Oct. 5, which pulls money from riskier assets, and bitcoin trades around $80,700. Markets give 75% to 80% odds of another quarter-point hike at the Dec. 8-9 meeting, and analysts call the likely outcome a 'hawkish hold'.
- Here's what options traders see before Alphabet, Microsoft report after the bell

- Wall Street’s Borrowing Binge Is Slowing, and BofA Says That Can Signal a Top
BofA technical strategist Paul Ciana said year-over-year margin debt growth slowed to 31.4% in September from 53.7% in May, a pattern he linked to past market peaks. Margin debt owed to brokers was about $1.48 trillion at the end of September, close to a record, and still rose 1.80% from August. Leverage has also shifted into leveraged ETFs and options, with the ten largest leveraged equity ETFs taking in $12 billion over one month. Robinhood's record $22.1 billion margin book grew 59% year over year, down from 127% in the second quarter, and the article says HOOD, down 35.17% over the past year, has more downside risk. Two data points, FINRA's October margin data and Robinhood's fourth-quarter margin book, would show whether the borrowing cycle is still running.
- SK Hynix Says Memory Is Sold Out Through 2029. Micron Is a Winner, Too
SK Hynix reported record third-quarter results on Oct. 28, with revenue of 104.62 trillion won ($77.99 billion), up 328% from a year earlier, and operating profit of 83.33 trillion won ($62.12 billion), up 632%. The company said its DRAM and HBM production is effectively sold out through 2029, with memory shortages expected to last through 2030. The article notes HBM uses far more capacity than conventional DRAM, about 300 bits of standard DRAM per 100 bits of HBM3E and nearly 4-to-1 with HBM4E, which could tighten conventional supply and support Micron's pricing. It also cautions that memory is historically cyclical and that Micron's new Idaho capacity and rising competitor output could weaken conditions if demand slows. Micron shares rose nearly 5% that morning and are up more than 200% in 2026.
- UPS Soars 6% on Raised Outlook as CEO Dispels Belief That “Volume Solves All Problems”
UPS shares rose 6% after third-quarter revenue grew 6.7% to $22.9 billion, above the $22.28 billion analysts expected, and adjusted EPS of $1.69 beat the $1.62 consensus. U.S. revenue per piece rose 6.1% even as average daily domestic volume fell 3% after UPS finished cutting Amazon deliveries, lifting adjusted domestic operating profit 14% to $1.03 billion. UPS raised its 2026 outlook to about $92.6 billion in revenue (from $91.2 billion), adjusted operating profit of about $8.75 billion, adjusted EPS of about $7.28 (from $7.22) and free cash flow of about $6.1 billion (from $5.5 billion), which covers the roughly $5.4 billion in planned dividends. Before the jump, UPS traded at 12.9x forward earnings versus a five-year average of 15.2x, and the article says the holiday quarter, with daily volume expected to fall 1.3%, is the next test.
- BofA clients dump communication services stocks at record pace after Meta slump
Bank of America's weekly equity flows note showed clients sold $3.5 billion of single stocks last week as the S&P 500 fell 0.5%, a second straight week of selling after record outflows of about $15 billion the prior week. Communication services saw its biggest weekly outflow since becoming a GICS sector in September 2018, following a sharp post-earnings sell-off in Meta Platforms, while industrials recorded their 13th straight week of outflows. Clients bought $2.3 billion of equity ETFs, with tech funds drawing the largest inflows, and institutional clients were buyers after outsized tax-loss selling in October. Corporate buybacks accelerated for a fourth week but stayed slightly below seasonal averages, with rolling 52-week buybacks at their lowest since August 2021. BofA also noted a rotation out of momentum and into value and cash-return strategies as rates ease and AI concerns rise.
