- This level-headed Tesla bull still expects something huge from the Cybercab
Tesla's surprise $5 billion cut to its capital expenditure plans has not shaken investor confidence in the long-term potential of a large Cybercab network. Morgan Stanley analyst Andrew Percoco, who rates the stock Equal Weight, still models a fleet of 5 million by the end of 2040, driven by sharp growth over the next three years. Musk said the Austin fleet has grown tenfold since launching about a month ago, with more than 300 Cybercabs operating there and nearly 2 million cumulative unsupervised miles as of the end of the third quarter. Austin operating hours are now 6 a.m. to midnight, and Tesla plans to expand to Dallas in November. Management acknowledged that software capabilities currently constrain scaling, though regulatory approvals could become the main bottleneck over time.
- Tesla: 3 Key Takeaways for Long-Term Investors
On its Q3 2026 earnings call on October 21, 2026, Tesla said vehicle demand exceeds production capacity and automotive order backlogs reached their highest level in four years. Revenue from recurring Full Self-Driving (FSD) subscriptions is also growing. Vice President of AI Ashok Elluswamy said the Cybercab will expand beyond Austin, Texas, with a launch in Dallas next month alongside Model Y robotaxis, and that the first customer vehicles could join the robotaxi fleet around Q2 next year. Elon Musk said a merger with SpaceX is off the table for now, while CFO Vaibhav Taneja said capital expenditures will continue to rise over the next few years.

- SpaceX Revenue Projections Look Wildly Optimistic Based on Elon Musk's Forecasting Track Record
Elon Musk targets $1 trillion in SpaceX revenue by 2030 (possibly 2029) and $3.5 trillion around 2033, versus roughly $18.7 billion recorded in 2025. The article argues these estimates should be viewed skeptically, as Musk has a history of overly optimistic forecasts: he predicted 1 million Tesla robotaxis by 2020, but there are currently 300 to 400 active. Tesla's electric semi-truck, originally slated for 2019, only began high-scale production last month, while the Cybertruck was estimated to sell 250,000 units annually but sold about 20,000 last year. Although SpaceX may grow strongly through its AI business, rocket launches and Starlink, the article says reaching Musk's sales targets would be an almost unbelievable achievement.
- Tesla Promises Its Flying Roadster For 2028, but MKBHD Has One Question: ‘This Is A Prank, Right?’
Tesla unveiled its Roadster on Thursday, with cold-gas thrusters sourced from Space Exploration Technologies Corp. enabling barrel rolls and hovering, and promised shipments in 2028. YouTuber Marques Brownlee (MKBHD) questioned the claims, pointing to the car's weight of over 4,000 pounds and asking if it was a prank; he had reserved a Roadster for $50,000 before cancelling, saying Tesla had held his money for eight years. Sam Altman also cancelled a reservation but says he has not received the $50,000 he paid, a claim Musk denied. Analyst Dan Ives said the debut could make the Tesla–SpaceX relationship more tangible, Ross Gerber called a merger between the companies 'obvious,' and Gene Munster described the car as an 'engineering flex' with no economic value for the company.

- Musk's wants to merge SpaceX and Tesla: Here's what to know
Musk said SpaceX and Tesla have formed special committees to study a merger, which would be worth about $3.5 trillion combined and would be the largest corporate deal in history. SpaceX, valued at about $2 trillion after a record listing this year, absorbed Musk's AI startup xAI in February, while Tesla is valued at about $1.5 trillion. Musk holds about 82 percent of SpaceX's voting power but only about 20 percent at Tesla. Dan Ives puts the odds of a deal at 90 percent by early 2027, though Musk called the requirement of a majority of all Tesla shares 'quite a high hurdle'. Loyal retail investors hold an estimated 25 to 27 percent of Tesla shares, and legal obstacles appear slight because both companies moved their incorporation to Texas from Delaware.
- CoreWeave and Nebius Stocks Are Crashing. Time to Buy the Dip?
Shares of Nebius and CoreWeave each fell 25% in the week of October 12 to 16. The sell-off stems from the yield on CoreWeave's debt in the secondary market surging to 15%, versus roughly 5% on Treasuries, which pushes the debt into 'distressed' territory and signals doubts about its ability to meet obligations. Nebius sold off in sympathy as a fellow neocloud company. The bigger concern is that both companies must keep issuing debt to fund data centers, and if yields are high at issuance, the assumption of nearly unlimited cheap capital could be challenged. The author says it is unclear whether now is the time to buy.
- Disney’s multiplatform Super Bowl plan frustrates ABC affiliates
ABC station owners are irritated that Disney is airing the Super Bowl across several platforms, including Disney+, ESPN2, NFL Network and ESPNU, even though the game is already on ABC and ESPN. A station group CEO estimates that the combined platforms could cut broadcast ad revenue by up to 35% compared with last year. Local affiliates typically earn about 3% of annual ad revenue from the Super Bowl and pay network owners reverse retransmission fees, but Disney+ lacks geofenced ad insertion, so affiliates cannot sell ads to streaming viewers. Disney says national commercials will be identical on all platforms and that streaming major live events is standard industry practice. Super Bowl LX drew 125.6 million viewers in February.
- Meta’s deal to keep Zuckerberg in California adds fuel to wealth tax debate ahead of election
Meta says Mark Zuckerberg will remain in California for eight years and has created a new stock plan that could help cover his taxes if Proposition 40, a 5% tax on Californians worth over $1 billion, passes on Election Day on Nov. 3. According to a filing released with its third-quarter earnings, Meta will issue non-voting Class C shares starting in January, and Zuckerberg can sell or transfer up to 20% of the shares granted to him without affecting his majority voting control. The filing says Zuckerberg’s leadership is crucial to the company’s growth and its AI ambitions, including Meta Superintelligence Labs. Most of the tech industry opposes the measure, while a recent Citrin-Politico poll found 46% in favor and 43% against, suggesting it may fall short of the majority support it needs.
- Nasdaq sell-off: A momentum unwind 'for the record books'
Matt Stucky, chief portfolio manager for equities at Northwestern Mutual Wealth Management, calls Thursday’s sell-off in the Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) a momentum unwind “for the record books.” He says the market spent the first half of 2026 driven by a beta and momentum trade led by semiconductors, but in the third quarter, as rates rose, money shifted into quality stocks. He does not think the sell-off is justified by fundamentals, arguing that institutional portfolio managers swapping out of factor positions can drag down whole baskets of stocks. In semiconductors, spot rental rates for Nvidia Blackwell chips are higher than a month ago, showing tightening compute supply, even as financing costs rise and investors worry about neocloud business models and the rising cost of insuring their bonds.
- Dune launches real-time data feeds covering 200 onchain trading venues
Blockchain analytics platform Dune has launched real-time market data feeds covering more than 200 onchain trading venues, aiming to bring this data into the systems of traditional financial institutions. The feeds draw trade data from 12 blockchains, including Ethereum, Solana and Base, about one second after execution, covering both spot trading on decentralized exchanges and perpetual futures on Hyperliquid and Lighter. Early clients include quant funds, market makers, asset managers and bank trading desks, which use the data to assess liquidity and compare prices, though Dune did not name them. Meanwhile, the tokenized stock market has grown sharply, with distributed value reaching $3.58 billion, but 16 companies, including Microsoft, Alphabet and Goldman Sachs, have objected to their shares being traded on OKXICE’s proposed platform, and liquidity remains fragmented.
