- Elon Musk Ally Jason Calacanis Targets 40% Tesla Rally — But His Nearly $1M Uber Bet Aims Higher
Early Uber investor Jason Calacanis disclosed purchases of about $1 million each in Uber and Tesla, plus 3,000 Netflix shares, for a total of $2.24 million. He bought 15,000 UBER shares at $65 for $975,000 with a 12-month target of $120, implying 85% upside, and 3,000 TSLA shares at $357 with a $500 target, implying about 40% upside. Calacanis predicted Tesla would hold 40% of the autonomous vehicle market, Uber and its partners 35%, and Waymo 15%, and said the Uber trade depends on price: “If Uber was at $100, I wouldn’t make this trade.” He also expects Waymo to buy Lucid or Rivian, two of several small autonomous-vehicle positions he disclosed last month.
- Turo and Tesla Debut Industry-First Self-Driving Rental Experience
Turo, a car rental marketplace, will launch on October 28 the first verified Tesla FSD (Supervised) rental experience in the U.S., using direct API integration to confirm each vehicle's FSD status. Guests are encouraged to review Tesla's FSD (Supervised) documentation and applicable safety guidelines before pickup. Turo says thousands of FSD-enabled Teslas are currently available on the platform. CEO Andre Haddad cites Turo research showing 55% of Americans are interested in driverless technology for travel, rising to 71% among Gen Z. Tesla hosts who link their accounts will have FSD status automatically verified and displayed on listings, and eligible U.S. hosts can receive a free one-month FSD (Supervised) trial subscription.
- 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.
- As Robotaxis Spread, Carmakers Must Choose Between Owning the Customer and Selling the Car
Tesla, Waymo (Alphabet) and Zoox (Amazon) already operate robotaxis in the U.S., while Chinese operators are expanding their fleets. The article divides players into those that own the rider through robotaxis (Tesla, Amazon, Alphabet, Uber) and automakers focused on selling cars with autonomy, such as Ford and GM, which abandoned robotaxi development. Tesla treats robotaxis as its core business, with Musk saying it would make several times more Cybercabs per year than all its other vehicles combined, while GM CEO Mary Barra is targeting personal autonomy. The article says Tesla and BYD are likely winners with caveats: Tesla already holds more than 50% of the U.S. EV market, but failing to develop new EV models could hurt it if Barra is right. Tesla's stock is also priced on the assumption that its robotaxi rollout succeeds.
- Here's How Much $100 Invested in Tesla Stock Today Could be Worth if Cathie Wood's Prediction Comes True in 2031
Ark Invest's Cathie Wood set a base-case price target of $4,400 for Tesla stock, up from a previous $2,600, alongside a bear case of $3,300 and a bull case of $5,000. With Tesla shares at $375.10 at the time of writing, $100 would buy 0.2666 shares, which the article calculates could be worth $879.78 to $1,233.00 by 2031, a gain of 779.8% to 1,233.0%. Most of the target rests on robotaxis, which Ark estimates will generate 80% of Tesla's future enterprise value and earnings, with the Optimus bot also cited as a key revenue driver. Ark also lays out a case that Tesla could merge with SpaceX within five years, where the combined companies could generate $3.8 trillion in revenue and $2.7 trillion in EBIT by 2031, with SpaceX accounting for 62% of revenue and 69% of EBIT. Tesla is the top holding across three Ark ETFs, at weightings of 10.2%, 7.7% and 11.7%.

Latest news
- Why is Dell (DELL) stock soaring today
Dell shares jumped 8.3% in the afternoon session after the company expanded its cybersecurity and resilience portfolio for AI environments and introduced new AI-focused personal computers. The new services include Security Hardening for the Dell AI Factory, available this month, which reviews configuration risks across physical, virtual and application layers; Resilience Operations for AI, available now, which identifies critical AI applications and writes recovery plans; and PowerProtect identity tools that restore clean copies of Active Directory, Microsoft Entra ID and Okta after an attack. Earlier, the stock gained 6.3% after Super Micro Computer raised its revenue forecast to $18.5 billion to $19.5 billion, and Dell expanded its Dell AI Factory collaboration with NVIDIA at the GTC Berlin event, with over 6,500 organizations adopting the offerings. Dell is up 294% year to date, but at $503.78 it trades 14.4% below its 52-week high of $588.40 from September 2026.
- Trump administration may let more Russian diesel onto market, energy secretary tells CNBC
U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright told CNBC that the U.S. may allow more Russian diesel onto the global market depending on Moscow’s behavior. He framed the Trump administration’s suspension of sanctions on Russian diesel exports as “an incentive” for Moscow to end the war in Ukraine. Under a Trump–Putin deal, Russia would export 800,000 metric tons of diesel in October and November, followed by another million tons; the first 300,000-ton shipment equals about 75,000 barrels per day over one month, and the 500,000-ton tranche about 124,000 bpd. Analysts say these volumes are small relative to global demand of around 28 million barrels per day, so they will not materially lower prices. Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and several Republican senators have sharply criticized the deal.
- Nvidia's New $3 Billion AI Bet Is on One of Its Own Customers
Nvidia announced plans to invest $3 billion in Meta Platforms, one of its biggest customers, as part of Meta's recently announced stock offering. The companies will expand their technical partnership on Muse, Meta's AI assistant, and the model family that powers it, aiming to improve both training and inference. Meta plans to deploy more Nvidia hardware, including Vera Rubin GPU systems, Vera CPUs and networking technology, while work on tools for securing and monitoring AI agents remains exploratory with nothing agreed. The article notes the announcement does not say how much new business Nvidia gains, since Meta was already a major customer and the engineers had been collaborating. The author sees the deal as Nvidia deploying cash while Meta needs capital, but says Nvidia's growth depends on continued AI spending, with last quarter's revenue at $96.2 billion and data center making up over 90% of sales.
- Jensen Huang's Late-Night Calls With President Trump Come as Nvidia's China AI Chip Shipments Fall 44% in the First Half of 2026. Here's Why His Access Matters.
According to Reuters, ByteDance, Alibaba and Tencent have reportedly ordered more than $35 billion of Nvidia's RTX PRO 5500 graphics cards at list prices, though Nvidia may deliver only a fraction because Chinese demand exceeds planned production capacity. IDC reports Nvidia's shipments of data center AI chips to China fell 44% year over year in the first half of 2026, while Huawei held 28% of China's data center AI accelerator shipments versus Nvidia's 34%. The article argues political access does not guarantee sales: Nvidia received licenses for limited H200 shipments, but Chinese restrictions kept it from selling the full permitted amount, and those shipments were under 1% of data center quarterly revenue. Nvidia's second-quarter fiscal 2027 revenue rose 106% to $96.2 billion, and its third-quarter guidance of $108 billion assumes no China data center compute revenue, so restored China sales could add revenue beyond guidance. The author notes shareholders should separate that potential from realized profit.
- Stock Market Today, Oct. 27: Meta Raises Largest-Ever Equity Offering to Nearly $98 Billion to Fund AI Infrastructure Bet
Meta Platforms closed at $620.19, down 1.64%, on trading volume of 50.4 million shares, about 148% above its three-month average. The company projects its 2026 AI infrastructure spending at $135 billion to $145 billion, versus $72.2 billion in 2025. Its equity offering, originally targeted at $95 billion, was upsized by $2.5 billion to $97.5 billion after the Class A offering was oversubscribed fivefold, consisting of $25 billion of Class A common stock, $12.5 billion of mandatory convertible preferred shares, and $60 billion through a Class C non-voting share at-the-market program scheduled for early 2027. Nvidia and AMD said they would invest a combined $4 billion in Meta as part of deepening AI partnerships, easing some financing concerns. Meta's third-quarter revenue rose 26% to $64.6 billion with guidance above expectations, but investors remained focused on rising capital expenditures.
- Why Noble Stock Tumbled on Tuesday
Noble shares fell more than 5% on Tuesday after third-quarter results showed revenue of $729 million, down 9% year over year, and an adjusted net loss of $91.5 million ($0.57 per share), versus a profit of more than $30 million a year earlier. Revenue beat the average estimate of slightly under $714 million, but the adjusted loss compared with analysts' modeled profit of $0.24 per share. The company said several rigs transitioning to new contracts weighed on the quarter, while its two Brazil rigs resumed operations. Noble now projects 2026 adjusted EBITDA of $850 million to $900 million, with the top end lowered from $925 million, and raised capital expenditures to $680 million to $705 million from $615 million to $665 million, mainly due to customer-reimbursable expenses. Backlog grew $560 million to $6.7 billion, with $2.6 billion set to convert next year.
