- Palantir, Datadog and chip stocks bounce back as Amazon lifts Wall Street
Tech stocks rebounded Monday even as most of Wall Street stayed weak. Palantir (PLTR) and Datadog (DDOG) each gained over 4%, with chip stocks also recovering from last week's losses. Bernstein upgraded Datadog on stronger AI-related demand, while Palantir announced a government-cloud partnership but faced a potential selling zone around $195–$200. Amazon (AMZN) rose 5% after Morgan Stanley named it a top pick, helping the Nasdaq Composite gain 1.1% and the S&P 500 add 0.4%. CoreWeave (CRWV), however, finished slightly lower at $61.12, just above its July closing low of $60.82, and nearly two-thirds of S&P 500 stocks fell.
- This Nvidia-Backed Cloud Computing Firm Is Reportedly In Talks To Sign A $45B Compute Deal With Anthropic
According to Bloomberg, Anthropic is in advanced talks to acquire about $45 billion of computing power from Nvidia-backed Nscale, centered on a second building at Nscale's Monarch campus in West Virginia that is slated to deliver 460 megawatts using Nvidia's Vera Rubin chips. Final terms are not set, and an agreement could come within days; both companies declined to comment. The site was first intended for Microsoft, which withdrew after signing a preliminary letter of intent. Anthropic already has infrastructure commitments with Nscale worth about $44.6 billion, according to filings tied to Nscale's upcoming public offering. Nscale closed a $3.36 billion pre-IPO round led by Third Point and is targeting a $30 billion valuation for its debut.
- Why CoreWeave's Struggles Could Weigh Down Nvidia's Stock
CoreWeave (CRWV) shares crashed last week over concerns about rising interest rates and its heavy debt load. Because Nvidia (NVDA) is a key customer and has invested billions in CoreWeave, the article argues its own stock could suffer if confidence in CoreWeave weakens. Nvidia has fallen about 2% over the past month, while CoreWeave is down well over 20%. The article notes Nvidia trades at a forward P/E of 25 and a PEG of about 0.48, well below the 1.0 cutoff, but its valuation depends on future growth, which could be questioned amid rising rates and competition from in-house chips.
- Sandisk, Datadog, Amazon Lead S&P 500 As AI Stocks Rebound
Western Digital, Sandisk, Datadog, Twilio and Amazon led the S&P 500 on Monday as AI-related stocks rebounded. Western Digital (WDC) rose 6.1% to 352.21, still below all its key moving averages, after plunging 16.4% last week. The hard-drive maker reports fiscal Q1 results late Thursday, kicking off a round of earnings for memory-related companies.
- Nscale in talks for $45 billion Anthropic AI deal as IPO looms
Nscale is in talks to secure a computing deal worth about $45 billion with Anthropic, according to Bloomberg News, which could strengthen the Nvidia-backed data center developer's bid for a roughly $30 billion valuation in its planned IPO. The proposed agreement would cover a second building at Nscale's Monarch campus in West Virginia, delivering 460 megawatts of capacity powered by Nvidia's Vera Rubin chips, and could be finalized within days, though terms could still change. Anthropic already has infrastructure agreements with Nscale worth as much as $44.6 billion, according to Nscale's IPO filing, and holds a right of first refusal on the campus's anticipated third building. Investors are scrutinizing AI infrastructure economics, and Nscale faces questions similar to CoreWeave's about financing, execution and converting its backlog into cash flow, since its contracts are future commitments rather than collected cash. Representatives for Nscale and Anthropic declined to comment.

- Prediction: Visa Will Be a $1 Trillion Company by 2030
The author predicts Visa, currently valued at $752 billion with shares at record highs and up 15% in 2026 as of Oct. 16, could reach a $1 trillion market cap by 2030. Growth drivers include the shift to digital payments and value-added services, whose revenue rose 36% year over year to $3.8 billion in the fiscal third quarter (ended June 30) and makes up 33% of the business. Visa's net profit margin of 48% compares with a 17% average for the S&P 500. Consensus estimates see EPS growing at a 14% compound annual rate from fiscal 2025 to 2028, and at 12% it could reach $21.37 by fiscal 2030. The author believes that even if the 34.6 P/E falls to 30, the market cap would still exceed $1 trillion.
- SpaceX Wants a 32-Mile Pipeline Tied Into Energy Transfer's and Kinder Morgan's Florida System. Does It Matter for Either Pipeline Stock?
On Oct. 6, the Florida Public Service Commission approved a transportation tariff for SpaceX subsidiary Coastal Connect Services to build a 32-mile pipeline in Brevard County linking to the Florida Gas Transmission Network, a roughly 5,300-mile system jointly owned by Kinder Morgan and Energy Transfer. The line will supply natural gas for Starship launches at Cape Canaveral, replacing hundreds of LNG truck deliveries, and SpaceX will build and own it. The article calls the deal small for both companies, which need only provide interconnection and offtake rather than fund construction. Energy Transfer transports about 30% of U.S. natural gas and Kinder Morgan about 40%, roughly 70% combined. Kinder Morgan yields around 3.5% and Energy Transfer around 6.8%, though Energy Transfer's MLP structure receives different tax treatment.
- Tether: Senator's investigation misses positive work that's led to lower Iran volumes
Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino says a recent Senate Democrats report, led by Senator Richard Blumenthal, missed the company's work to enforce sanctions. He claims Tether froze suspicious addresses on average 4 weeks before OFAC and NBCTF sanction designations, and before Chainalysis labelled them in 99% of cases since 2023. Ardoino says these actions led to Iran-linked stablecoin volumes declining by 94%. The Senate report, which described Tether as providing a significant financial lifeline within Iran's shadow banking network, said the company did not comprehensively freeze flagged wallets before 2024. Blumenthal is also probing Tether's relationship with its U.S. financial partner, Cantor Fitzgerald.
- Palantir Wins Knox Federal Partnership, Gains 4%
Palantir shares rose 4% after Knox Systems announced a partnership that lets other companies' commercial software reach federal agencies through Palantir's FedRAMP and IL5 accreditations. Knox, a private company running a managed federal cloud, says it can secure FedRAMP authorization for software makers in 90 days or less, and it already hosts more than 100 AI and enterprise applications. Neither company disclosed financial terms. Analysts already expect Palantir's revenue to rise from $4.48 billion in 2025 to $8.22 billion in 2026, and its U.S. government revenue grew 90% year over year to $809 million in Q2 2026. At Friday's close the stock traded at 98x forward earnings, a touch below its five-year average of 103x; the next test is the third-quarter report, guided to $2.16 billion to $2.164 billion in revenue.
- Should You Buy Home Depot Stock Before Nov. 17?
Home Depot (HD) shares are down 10% so far in 2026, as investors worry that inflation is leading consumers to spend less and delay home renovation projects. Revenue growth recovered to just under 6% in the latest quarter, and the stock trades at 21 times trailing earnings, below the S&P 500 average of 23. The author argues that home repair needs are hard to postpone for long, so a recovery is likely, and points to a dividend yield of about 3% and 158 consecutive quarterly dividends. The author does not predict the results for the third quarter, which are due on Nov. 17.
- SpaceX “the Largest Global Neocloud” per Jim Chanos as We Gear up for Earnings Tomorrow
SpaceX reports earnings after the close on Oct. 20, and short seller Jim Chanos says it will be the largest global neocloud starting in 2027. In 2025, capital spending reached $20.9 billion against $6.8 billion of operating cash flow, leaving free cash flow at negative $14.1 billion. Total debt rose to $24.5 billion from $15.4 billion a year earlier, and reports say SpaceX is seeking $40 billion more to buy Nvidia chips. The article argues that Starlink's profits give SpaceX a cushion CoreWeave lacks, but says credit market worries will persist until the compute business starts paying its own way.
