- Stock market today: Dow, S&P 500, Nasdaq futures mixed as the AI trade rebounds
US stock futures were mixed on Monday, with Dow futures down 0.1%, S&P 500 futures up 0.5%, and Nasdaq 100 futures up more than 1%, as tech led a rebound after all three major indexes ended lower on Friday. The Nasdaq had its worst week since June, while the S&P 500 rose after a nearly 2% drop the previous week. Nvidia and AMD led semiconductor shares higher, and CoreWeave was set to open higher after AI financing worries pressured it last week. Investors are looking ahead to Netflix's results after Tuesday's close and to Tesla and Meta earnings on Wednesday. Brent crude was at $108 per barrel after Ukraine struck Russian oil facilities and tankers were attacked in the Middle East, while West Texas Intermediate fell to $98.

- Interest rise starts to hit AI boom
Long-term bond yields have risen since mid-last month, when the 10-year US Treasury yield passed 5%, and rate-sensitive AI stocks have fallen sharply. Neocloud firms that borrowed heavily to buy Nvidia chips and rent them out are most exposed: Firmus's IPO collapsed last week, and CoreWeave shares fell 28% in one week. According to FactSet, CoreWeave has about $35 billion of debt and is expected to spend $80 billion over the next three and a half years. Gartner forecasts that 80% of neocloud firms will cease independent operations by 2030, citing a huge gap between capital spending and AI returns. Concerns about AI demand have also grown, as OpenAI's annualized revenue was $20 billion less than it had initially indicated.
- The Stock Market Has Seen This Happen Only 2 Other Times in Over 150 Years, and History Has an Ominous Warning for Investors
The bull market is entering its fifth year, with the S&P 500 up nearly 120% over four years on the AI boom, but gains are narrow and over a quarter of index stocks are down 40% or more from their highs. Investors Michael Burry and Ray Dalio warn of an AI bubble, and the CAPE ratio above 40 is its second-highest level ever; the only earlier readings above 32, in 1929 and during the dot-com bubble, were followed by major corrections. The article argues that selling to wait is usually a mistake, citing Hartford Funds data that 76% of the best market days occur in bear markets or the first two months of bull markets, and Peter Lynch's view that staying invested matters more than timing. Lynch's example: investing $2,000 every year in the S&P 500 from 1965 to 1995 returned 11% annually, versus 10.6% when buying at each year's peak. It recommends steady dollar-cost averaging into an index ETF such as the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO) rather than trying to time a crash.
- Does the AI Selloff Put Alphabet's Breakout in Doubt?
Alphabet (GOOGL) was pressing toward a possible breakout after Google made its Gemini 4 Argon model broadly available on Oct. 13, scoring 53 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, matching OpenAI's flagship. A broad AI-led market sell-off on Oct. 14 pushed the stock back toward the bottom of its trading range. The article says the breakout setup stays valid only while the stock holds above its 200-day moving average, around $340. Analysts keep a Buy consensus with an average price target of $425.04, implying about 22% upside, though the near-term outlook has become less clear.

Latest news
- Meta Q3 earnings to test Wall Street's stomach for AI spending
Meta is set to report third-quarter results after the bell on Wednesday, kicking off Big Tech's earnings season. Bloomberg analyst consensus expects EPS of $3.56 on revenue of $63.3 billion, versus $1.05 and $51.2 billion a year earlier, while capital expenditures are projected to rise 117% to $41 billion. Reality Labs is expected to post a $5.2 billion operating loss. The results come as investors weigh AI spending, including CoreWeave's (CRWV) debt load, and Meta stock is down more than 3% over the past year. Meanwhile, its Muse AI agent reached 10 million downloads 40 days after its US launch, faster than ChatGPT and Claude, and BofA says Meta has the least risk of AI disruption to its core business.
- General Mills Stock Is Down 30%, and Wall Street Analysts Keep Cutting Their Price Targets. Here's Why History Says They're Missing the Bigger Picture.
General Mills shares are down around 30% over the past year, while the average consumer staples stock is up nearly 10%, and Bank of America and Evercore ISI cut their price targets after fiscal first-quarter 2027 results. Sales fell 3% and organic sales were flat, an improvement from the 5% drop and 2% organic decline a year earlier, with food service and international businesses growing. The article says the company is adjusting after cutting prices in fiscal 2026, but the dividend is a risk: adjusted EPS of $0.75 against a $0.61 dividend implies a payout ratio of roughly 80%. With a 7.3% yield, investors are paid while they wait for a turnaround, and a 27-year company veteran becomes CEO at the start of 2027.
- Opendoor Is Now Down 64% This Year: Is OPEN Stock a Falling Knife or Poised for a Comeback?
Opendoor shares rose 2% to $2.09 in afternoon trading but remain down 64% year to date, while the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust is up 13%, as its balance-sheet-heavy iBuying model faces a frozen housing market. The 10-year Treasury yield, which guides mortgage rates, stood at 5.09% on October 16. Q2 2026 revenue fell 43.6% YoY to $883 million and the GAAP net loss grew to $162 million, though acquisition volume is rising and homes listed over 120 days fell to 9% from 36%. Management expects Q3 2026 revenue to grow at least 20% YoY and targets positive adjusted net income by year-end, and the upcoming report will show whether the stock bounces or keeps falling.
- Bitcoin ETFs Post Their Best Day in Nearly a Month as BlackRock Does All the Buying
U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs drew $526.7 million on Oct. 19, their largest single-day inflow since $714.7 million on Sept. 22, ending two weeks of selling that shed about $910 million. BlackRock's IBIT took in $665.2 million, while Fidelity's FBTC lost $83.6 million and Grayscale's GBTC lost $54.9 million, cutting October's net outflows to roughly $88 million from about $615 million. Ethereum ETFs lost $103 million and Solana ETFs $6.7 million the same day, while Bitcoin hovered near $82,000, close to the $82,300 average cost basis estimated for ETF holders. The article links the broader pressure to expected Federal Reserve rate hikes, citing a 3.7% CPI rise over 12 months, a 20.4% jump in energy prices, and a 10-year Treasury yield above 5% that competes with yield-free Bitcoin.
- Ten Million Downloads in Six Weeks: The Fight for the AI Agent in Your Pocket Has Started
A new personal AI agent launched on September 8 has been downloaded 10.9 million times in six weeks, according to Sensor Tower data, with more than 10.2 million downloads in the U.S. Its daily active users reached about 2.5 million for the first time on October 16, up 15% week over week, and Sensor Tower says only 11 other apps have hit 10 million U.S. downloads within 40 days. Over the past 30 days, U.S. downloads of a leading chatbot app fell 25%. A Deutsche Bank analyst projected the product could account for up to 8% of its parent company's revenue by 2030, roughly $36 billion, with a low-end estimate of $2.4 billion. The article notes that Meta, Yelp, Snap, SoundHound and Nextdoor are also building their own AI agents.
