- Stock market today: Dow rises, S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures fall as Alphabet stock sells off, AI jitters return
U.S. stock index futures diverged in premarket trading on Thursday as Alphabet's third-quarter earnings triggered a sell-off in its shares and AI concerns returned, weighing on tech-heavy indexes. Dow Jones Industrial Average futures (YM=F) rose 0.3%, while S&P 500 futures (ES=F) fell 0.4% and Nasdaq-100 futures (NQ=F) dropped 1.3%. Alphabet's sales fell short of expectations, and although Google's cloud growth reached 103%, worries about free cash flow and the return on AI investment weighed on the stock. The AI sell-off spread to Asian markets, with South Korea's Kospi (^KS11) declining, and the iShares Semiconductor ETF (SOXX), Nvidia, AMD and Micron also fell after hours. Investors are awaiting Amazon's results after the close and core PCE inflation data, expected to rise 3.1%, due a day after the Fed's rate decision.
- US Stock Futures Mixed Ahead of Alphabet, Microsoft Earnings and Federal Reserve Rate Decision: Dow Jones, S&P, Nasdaq, Wall Street
US stock futures were mixed on Wednesday as investors awaited results from Alphabet and Microsoft after the close and the Federal Reserve's rate decision. S&P 500 futures rose 0.1% and Nasdaq 100 futures gained 0.6%, while Dow Jones futures fell 0.2%, following a 1.18% rise in the Nasdaq Composite the previous session. Investors are watching whether heavy AI infrastructure spending is producing revenue growth, with Alphabet, Microsoft and Amazon together planning capital expenditure of as much as $600 billion this year. South Korea's SK Hynix beat expectations with third-quarter operating profit of 83.33 trillion won, up 632% year over year, and its shares rose more than 10% in Seoul. The company also plans to return a total of 100 trillion won, about $75.5 billion, to shareholders this year.
- Alphabet is Plunging More Than 10% After Its Earnings Disappointed. It's Dragging The Nasdaq With It.
Alphabet shares fell more than 12% on Thursday, dragging the Nasdaq Composite down 1.35%, after third-quarter negative free cash flow of $9.07 billion came in well above the $2.70 billion analysts expected. The company kept its capex guidance for next year at $195 billion to $205 billion, and if shares close down more than 9.77%, it would be their worst post-earnings performance since the 2004 IPO. Alphabet faces pressure from OpenAI and Anthropic as queries move to their models, and Gemini is seen as lagging ChatGPT and Claude; chief business officer Philipp Schindler said search is taking hits from lower monetization within AI Mode. Also on Thursday, September PCE inflation rose 0.5% monthly and 3.6% annually, in line with expectations but well above the Fed's 2% target, a day after the Fed held rates at 3.75%–4% with two dissents.

- Nasdaq 100 Futures Dip On Weak Intel, Amazon Earnings With Bloated Capex Worries Weighing On Sentiment — AMZN, INTC, SBUX, PLTR, ASTS In Focus
U.S. stock indices closed lower on Thursday and extended declines after hours as Amazon's bloated capital expenditures fed investor fears that the AI capex cycle may have gotten ahead of itself. During the session, the Nasdaq 100 fell 1.4% and the S&P 500 lost 0.3%, while the Russell 2000 gained 1%. Amazon (AMZN) shares dropped about 7% after hours after it spent upwards of $77 billion on property and equipment in the third quarter, producing a free cash outflow of $42.4 billion, even as revenue rose 12% to $201.9 billion. Intel (INTC) shares tumbled about 17% after hours after it forecast weaker-than-expected fourth-quarter revenue and earnings amid a PC sales slump and supply bottlenecks. On the other side, JPMorgan turned bullish on Palantir (PLTR), forecasting a stock rally of more than 30%.
- Andy Jassy says Prime Video is on track to earn ‘tens of billions of dollars’
Amazon bought MGM for $8.5 billion four years ago, and Hollywood has since become a lucrative business for the company. CEO Andy Jassy said on the earnings call that Prime Video has a revenue run rate in the tens of billions of dollars and is now profitable on its own, after he had earlier said in May only that it was profitable. Amazon MGM Studios has brought in more than $1.2 billion in global box office so far this year, with Project Hail Mary grossing an estimated $684 million worldwide. Season 4 of Reacher drew 66 million global viewers in its first 28 days, and the first six Thursday Night Football games averaged 17.7 million viewers, up 16% from last year according to Nielsen.
- The State Bank of Vietnam considers a capital transaction mechanism for the International Financial Centre
While VIFC-HCMC has no member banks yet, the State Bank of Vietnam is considering allowing businesses to keep accounts at domestic banks to carry out some capital transactions, under a mechanism similar to that for foreign loans and overseas lending. Deputy Governor Pham Thanh Ha stressed that serving banks must be closely supervised and able to identify each transaction, and the SBV will soon consider licensing banks as members while studying proposals on licensing conditions and credit limits. Some businesses, including Sovico, have asked to use direct investment capital accounts (DICA) at banks outside the centre during the transition to complete transactions in Q4 2026, and to amend some conditions under Decree 329. Sovico also proposed a withholding tax exemption for aircraft leasing and financing transactions and a sandbox trial for tokenising aircraft and engines. Deputy Minister of Finance Nguyen Thi Bich Ngoc said financial products should be rolled out step by step, and the ministry has compiled the proposals for the competent authority.
- AWS will be a $1T business, Jassy says. But first, it will spend big.
Jassy reiterated that AWS can become a trillion-dollar revenue business within the next five to 10 years. Amazon still expects 2026 cash capex of about $220 billion, mostly for AWS, and plans to spend meaningfully more in 2027. AWS revenue rose 39% year over year, its sixth straight quarter of steady growth, and the company expects AWS to grow north of 40% in both 2027 and 2028, with an annualized run-rate of $184 billion. Jassy called the AI boom a 'once in a lifetime opportunity' and said Amazon can fund the plan, but investors remained concerned and shares fell about 6% in after-hours trading.
- Micron Is Trading for Less Than 6 Times Forward Earnings. Here's Why That's a Sign to Buy.
The author argues Micron (MU) is among the cheapest stocks in the market, trading at 5.2 times forward earnings on Oct. 29 versus 19.2 times for the S&P 500. The article links the discount to the cyclical memory-chip industry, where the current boom could be followed by a severe downturn. The author believes the market is misjudging this, citing Micron's long-term supply agreements with ceiling and floor prices that could steady its revenue. Micron has said the 2027 and 2028 memory markets will be tighter than 2026, with new capacity coming online from mid-2027 through 2028. The author states that even at 15 times forward earnings, the stock could triple.
- Gold bar and gold ring prices today (30/10) at SJC, DOJI, Phú Quý, PNJ, Bảo Tín Minh Châu...: How much per chỉ?
Domestic gold prices were unchanged from the previous session's close early on 30/10. Gold bars at SJC, DOJI, Phú Quý and PNJ were quoted at 139.7–142.7 million VND per lượng (buy–sell), while SJC gold rings were at 135.5–139.5 million VND per lượng. Globally, spot gold fell 1.4% to $4,008.76/ounce in the 29/10 US session, and December futures dropped 0.5% to $4,031.40/ounce. The decline reflected stronger-than-expected US data, including Q3 GDP growth of 3.4% and a 0.5% month-on-month rise in September PCE, which heightened inflation concerns. Reuters reported markets price about an 80% chance the Fed raises rates in December, making non-yielding gold less attractive to investors.
