- Vertiv Targets Up to 30% More Cumulative AI Token Output in First 12 Months Using NVIDIA DSX, Polar Deploys Approach at Norway Site
Vertiv and NVIDIA introduced an AI factory approach that pairs rapid configuration and virtual validation of pre-engineered reference designs with factory-built deployment, targeting up to 30% more cumulative token output within 12 months with the same installed capacity under defined assumptions. In the modeled scenario, time from requirements to a validated AI factory design drops from about 30 days to three days, and infrastructure deployment falls from about 90 days to 45 days. Combined, these stages shrink from about 120 days to 48 days, making productive AI capacity available roughly 10 weeks sooner. Polar Data Centers is applying the model to the first 41 MW phase of its AI data center at Herøya, Norway, scalable to 100 MW, using Vertiv prefabricated power and thermal modules, SmartRun overhead infrastructure and SmartMod.
- Dassault Systèmes and Vertiv Team to Accelerate AI Factory Design and Deployment
Dassault Systèmes (DSY.PA) and Vertiv (VRT) announced a collaboration to configure, simulate and validate AI factory infrastructure before construction begins, combining the 3DEXPERIENCE platform with Vertiv's digital infrastructure expertise. The model-based approach builds on the Vertiv SmartRun virtual twin and extends to Vertiv OneCore, targeting NVIDIA Vera Rubin DSX AI Factory reference designs. Targeted customer outcomes include reaching a validated AI factory solution up to 10x faster and cutting the defined infrastructure deployment period by up to 50%. In Vertiv's model, the approach could bring capacity online about 10 weeks sooner than a conventional baseline and produce up to 30% more cumulative token output within 12 months, though this gain stems only from earlier facility readiness, not a measured customer result.
- Where Will Vertiv Stock Be in 1 Year ? | The Motley Fool
Vertiv (VRT), a supplier of cooling and power systems for data centers, hit a record $376.06 on May 14 on AI-driven demand, but now trades near $211. Its revenue rose from $5.0 billion in 2021 to $10.2 billion in 2025, and adjusted EPS from $0.76 to $4.20, with a $15 billion backlog at the end of Q2 2026. For 2026, it expects revenue to grow 37% to $14 billion and adjusted EPS to rise 60%, and the stock trades at 31 times that estimate. The pullback reflects a slight miss on Q2 revenue estimates, a $1.45 billion cash acquisition of UtilityInnovation Group that may pressure near-term margins, and rising interest rates that compressed valuations of high-growth AI stocks. If Vertiv meets analyst expectations and trades at 30 times earnings by next October, the article estimates its stock could rise about 30% to $276, still below its record high.

For 2026, Vertiv expects revenue of $14 billion, up 37%, and adjusted EPS growth of 60%, a forecast that puts the stock at 31 times that earnings estimate. The pullback followed a slight miss on second-quarter revenue estimates, a $1.45 billion acquisition of UtilityInnovation Group that could weigh on near-term margins, and rising interest rates that hit high-growth AI stocks. If Vertiv meets analyst EPS expectations and trades at 30 times current-year earnings by next October, the article estimates the stock could rise about 30% to $276 over 12 months, still below its record high.
- Vertiv Stock Jumps 7 % After Record Losing Streak as SpaceX and Super Micro Results Revive AI Power Trade
Vertiv shares rose more than 7% in early Wednesday trading, gaining $15.43 to $218.98 and lifting the company's market value to about $84.3 billion after a record 11-session losing streak. The rally followed strong results from SpaceX, which reported third-quarter revenue of $14.58 billion and said its AI cloud business grew about ninefold, and from Super Micro Computer, which forecast fiscal first-quarter revenue of $18.5 billion to $19.5 billion. SpaceX also expects to spend $35 billion to $40 billion on capital projects in the fourth quarter, mostly for AI computing infrastructure. Vertiv reports third-quarter results on Oct. 28, forecasting adjusted earnings of $1.77 to $1.83 per share, while analysts expect $1.82 per share on revenue of about $3.75 billion. The company's backlog reached $15 billion at the end of 2025, more than double the year before.

- Jobless claims near the lowest since the 1960s as low-fire trend continues
Employers are holding on to workers even as hiring stays weak, pushing seasonally adjusted initial jobless claims to 194,000 for the week ending Oct. 17, close to the 189,000 reported for the week of July 18, which was the lowest since the late 1960s. Claims have averaged 212,000 over the past year, and the four-week moving average has fallen to 197,750. The labor market backdrop remains uncertain: nonfarm payrolls rose only 29,000 in September and have averaged 69,000 a month in 2026, while the unemployment rate rose to 4.2%, largely due to a sharp jump in labor force participation. Layoffs remain modest, falling by 61,000 in August, and the layoff rate fell to 1% over the prior 12 months. Ahead of the Federal Reserve's decision next week, policymakers describe the labor market as generally strong and are focused on inflation, which remains well above the 2% target; markets expect the Fed to hold in October and then raise rates by a quarter point in December.
- Temporary Delays in siRNA Manufacturing Mask Codexis' (CDXS) High-Option Value
In its Q3 2026 investor letter, White Brook Capital highlighted Codexis (NASDAQ:CDXS), which makes enzymes used to manufacture siRNA-based medicines, and said the stock holds call options with favorable payouts. On October 21, 2026, the stock closed at $1.29 with a market capitalization of $141.26 million, down 20.86% year to date and trading within a 52-week range of $0.96 to $2.98. However, 2026 has been marked by delays: three CDMO partners, Bachem, Nitto Denko Avecia and Axolabs, were signed early in the year, but only one has completed its technology evaluation, and long-term contract negotiations are still ongoing. Permitting delays have also hit its GMP-standard standalone facility, which is now scheduled to start production at year-end 2027, and the target for half-kilogram siRNA batches has moved to the end of this year or early next year.
- Evaluating CareCloud's (CCLD) Short-Term Integration Friction vs. Long-Term Margin Expansion
On October 21, 2026, CareCloud (NASDAQ:CCLD), a healthcare IT company providing billing, medical-records and AI software, closed at $1.77 with a $75.21 million market cap, down 39.38% year to date. In its Q3 2026 investor letter, White Brook Capital said the market's frustration stems from declining profits as the company integrates acquisitions. Second-quarter revenue grew 16%, but net income fell to just $1.1 million due to merger costs, heavier AI spending and interest on new debt, and a March cyberattack added to the strain; management expects insurance to cover the costs, though this shook investor confidence. The company also retired the preferred stock White Brook previously held in May, saving about $3.3 million annually, and management expects a stronger second half than first. At roughly eight times the midpoint of management's 2026 GAAP EPS guidance, White Brook sees double-digit revenue growth at a modest multiple, with additional upside if integration improves margins.
- VIX Securities Still Holds VND 1,000 Billion of Undisbursed Capital from Share Offering
VIX Securities (HoSE: VIX) raised over 11,026 billion VND from an offering of nearly 919 million shares priced at 12,000 VND each on April 20, 2026. Over 5,013 billion VND each was disbursed to proprietary investment and margin lending from April 22 to May 26, 2026, but the 1,000 billion VND earmarked to contribute capital to VIX's digital asset trading exchange had not been disbursed as of October 20, 2026. In Q3 2026, pre-tax profit fell nearly 94% year on year to 192 billion VND, with revenue down 36% to 2,047 billion VND and proprietary trading booking a net loss of 94 billion VND. For the first nine months, revenue fell 18% to 5,050 billion VND and pre-tax profit dropped nearly 92% to about 424 billion VND, mainly due to proprietary trading losses, leaving VIX at 12.1% of its 3,500 billion VND full-year pre-tax target. Total assets rose 16.6% to nearly 39,860 billion VND by September 30, 2026, while margin loans fell from 15,380 billion VND to 12,422 billion VND.
- Chip stocks fall as equipment maker Lam Research cites 'supply chain constraints'
Semiconductor stocks fell in premarket trading Thursday after Lam Research, a major wafer equipment supplier, cited near-term supply chain constraints on its earnings call. Its CFO said quarterly revenue guidance of $8.6 billion would have been a bit higher without these constraints, and Lam shares fell as much as 9% premarket. The PHLX Semiconductor Index (SOXX) was set to open down 4%, with Nvidia and Qualcomm down more than 2%, Marvell down 4%, Intel down 5%, Broadcom down more than 3%, Applied Materials down 6% and ASML down 3%. Semiconductor stocks have been volatile as concerns over AI funding weigh on the sector, while surging oil prices raised expectations that the Fed may keep tightening monetary policy this year.
- VN-Index rises another 22 points, reaching highest level in over half a year
The VN-Index closed at 1,761 points, up 22 points, on trading volume of more than 672 million shares worth about 15,300 billion VND. On HoSE, 149 stocks rose, 167 fell and 57 were unchanged. Foreign investors net bought nearly 342 billion VND on HoSE, led by VIC (over 239 billion VND), TCB and VHM, while FPT saw the largest net selling at over 264 billion VND. ASEAN Securities said the index shows a technical rebound signal with buyers temporarily in control, but the market remains neutral because the index has not broken above the MA20 and indicators are not yet uniformly confirmed, so it may trade in a narrow range.
