- Apple Sales Rise 12%; Tariff Refunds Pad EPS: Rapid Earnings Reaction
Apple posted record September-quarter revenue of $114.5 billion for fiscal 2026's fourth quarter, up 12% year over year, while shares were roughly flat after hours. Tariff refunds, a one-time item, added about 1 percentage point to gross margin and $0.05 to EPS; without them, EPS growth would be about 11%, slightly below sales growth. Diluted EPS rose 14% to $2.10, gross margin reached 47.9%, and operating cash flow was $28 billion, with $28 billion returned to shareholders. The holiday quarter is the next test, as Apple launches the iPhone Duo, new home hardware, touch on the Mac and a rebuilt Siri; high early production costs could pressure margins. The article suggests watching gross margin excluding refunds, with holding near 47% indicating the new lineup is not eating into profit.

- US midterm elections reach decisive moment: What scenarios could unfold?
On November 3, about 210 million registered voters will decide all 435 House seats, 35 of 100 Senate seats and governors in 36 states, determining which party controls Congress for the next two years. Republicans currently hold majorities in both chambers; Democrats need to gain 3 House seats and 4 Senate seats to take control. Since 1946, the president's party has typically lost an average of 26.5 House seats in midterm elections, according to George Washington University professor Todd Belt. Belt estimates about 35 House races could decide the majority and believes Democrats could gain roughly 15 seats. If Democrats win either chamber, non-government spending bills could stall, he said.

- Anthropic Just Released Updated Numbers Ahead of Its Nov. IPO. Revenue Growth Slowed Sharply.
Anthropic, the company behind the Claude AI model, is preparing for a November IPO at a valuation of around $1.5 trillion, down from earlier talk of $2 trillion. An amended prospectus adding Q3 figures shows revenue of just under $17 billion, up 1,127% year over year and about 47% sequentially, though sequential growth slowed sharply from 144% in Q2. The company said price cuts on new models and contractual discounts reduced Q3 revenue by about $600 million; adding that back would put sequential growth at roughly 52%. The article notes that capacity constraints, summer seasonality and restrictions on customers who violated terms may explain part of the slowdown, but questions whether Anthropic's pricing power is eroding as AI moves toward becoming a commodity.

- Nvidia Reports Nov. 17. History Says What Its Stock Usually Does Next.
Nvidia will report results for its fiscal third quarter of 2027 after the close on Nov. 17, with shares near $205, about 14% below their Oct. 6 closing high of $239.24. Revenue beat the top of management's forecast range in each of the past 10 reports, yet the stock fell the next trading day after six of them, with the largest drop about 8.5% in February 2025. Most of those declines were recovered by the next report roughly three months later, though the roughly 9% gain after the August report has since faded to about 10% below its post-report close. Nvidia guides for third-quarter revenue of $108.0 billion, plus or minus 2%. The author concludes history is not a strong reason to avoid the stock before the report, leaning toward buying before Nov. 17 rather than guessing the next day's move, with shares trading at about 14 times the consensus fiscal 2028 EPS estimate of $15.80.
