- Coinbase Stock Rallies Again. Here’s How Much Crypto Risk Is Hiding in Your ETFs
Coinbase shares rose 5.84% to $145.89 in the session but remain down 8.59% over the past week and 20.28% over the past month. Reports said Cathie Wood's ARK added Coinbase shares after the slide, while CNBC reported that Morgan Stanley had told investors to steer clear of the stock. The article estimates roughly 21.8% of ARKF, 15.4% of ARKW and 11.4% of ARKK is tied directly to digital assets, while the Invesco QQQ Trust did not list Coinbase. Coinbase's third-quarter revenue fell 35% year over year to $1.22 billion, while GAAP EPS of $2.51 beat the $0.07 consensus thanks to $715 million in gains on crypto held for investment. Bitcoin remains below its 20-day ($80,528) and 50-day ($81,925) averages, and the article says a recovery above those levels would help confirm the bounce.
- New Jersey drops Coinbase staking order ahead of crypto’s midterm test
New Jersey has rescinded its 2023 cease-and-desist order against Coinbase’s staking service, along with a $5 million penalty, without ruling on the merits of the case. The Oct. 30 notice leaves the Bureau of Securities free to bring a new enforcement action against Coinbase in the future. CEO Brian Armstrong said New Jersey users will regain staking access “very soon,” while California, Maryland, Wisconsin and Washington are still pursuing cases against the exchange’s staking services. Coinbase estimates California users have missed out on over $89 million in staking rewards since 2023, versus more than $15 million in New Jersey. The decision came ahead of the Nov. 3 US midterm elections, with prediction markets favoring Democrats to win Senate control.
- Morgan Stanley Just Took a Chainsaw to Coinbase
Morgan Stanley downgraded Coinbase (COIN) to Underweight and sharply cut its earnings forecasts. The bank warned that rising competition and weaker operating performance could leave the crypto exchange struggling to grow.
- Coinbase hit with 50% price target cut as post-earnings rout deepens
Morgan Stanley turned bearish on Coinbase (COIN) and cut its price target from $258 to $120, about 53%, in a Monday report by analyst Michael Cyprys. The bank cited recent trading trends, a softer revenue outlook and uncertainty in the crypto market after Binance's $6.3 billion hack. It still sees Coinbase as one of the strongest competitors in crypto but expects profits to recover more slowly than previously forecast. Third-quarter net revenue fell about 34% year over year to $1.16 billion, and net income of $719 million was largely driven by gains on crypto investments, while adjusted net income was $78 million. Coinbase shares fell more than 13% in midday trading Friday and extended losses Monday, dropping more than 3.3% to $138; Circle and Strategy also declined.
- Coinbase downgraded at Morgan Stanley; price target slashed 53% on weak earnings outlook
- Crypto industry pours more than $200 million into 2026 midterms to pressure Congress on favorable rules
Crypto-tied organizations have contributed more than $200 million this election cycle, according to Public Citizen, outpacing online betting and data center groups in federal corporate political spending. Fairshake and its affiliated super PACs back 33 House candidates, 19 Republicans and 14 Democrats, and are prioritizing six incumbents with a baseline of $1 million each. Coinbase says it donated $25 million to Fairshake's 2026 midterm efforts, after contributing $79 million to federal races in the 2024 cycle. The Clarity Act, a bipartisan crypto market-structure bill, stalled in the Senate in September after Democrats argued it did too little to stop top officials from profiting from crypto, amid a Gallup poll finding a record 89% of U.S. adults say government corruption is widespread. In Ohio, Fairshake told CNBC it has spent $55 million to oppose Sherrod Brown, who holds a four-point edge over Jon Husted in a Marist poll, within a 4.5% margin of error.

- Apple reportedly lowers daily AI spending limits for engineers
Apple is cutting employees' AI spending budgets as part of a cost-cutting drive, even as it seeks to put AI at the center of its operations. According to Bloomberg, the daily cap for some engineers fell from $300 to $200 last month and could drop to as low as $100 for some engineering teams; many non-engineering groups already face a $100 cap, which could be reduced to $25. Employees needing higher allowances can seek exemptions from senior leadership, and internal reactions are mixed: some say the old limits were too generous since few used the full $300, while others worry about layoffs. Apple said R&D expenses rose 32% in fiscal 2026 and operating expenses jumped 22% to $75.5 billion, or 16% of net sales. The actual savings from the cuts remain unclear.
- 5 Cheapest AI Data Center Stocks to Buy According to Billionaires
The IEA's October 2026 report estimates hyperscalers will spend over $700 billion on capital investment this year, though constrained power grids, connection queues and slow permitting are obstacles. CBRE's first-half 2026 report found North American primary-market supply rose 33.7% year over year to 10,903 MW, vacancy fell to 1.4%, and 80.4% of capacity under construction was already committed. JLL projects about 100 GW of new capacity from 2026 to 2030, with an estimated $1.2 trillion in real estate investment and $1 trillion to $2 trillion in tenant equipment spending. The IEA expects global data center electricity use to rise from 485 TWh in 2025 to 950 TWh in 2030, but warns equipment shortages and grid limits could slow near-term growth. Among the screened stocks, Western Digital reported fiscal first-quarter revenue of $4.38 billion, up about 55%, with a 58.1% non-GAAP gross margin.
- Shopify Could Be the Best Growth Stock to Buy With $1,000 in November
Shopify closed at a record high of $179.22 per share, a 613% gain from its $25.13 low in 2022, but has since pulled back to about $151. The author believes the company's self-service commerce model is resilient, supported by an ecosystem that includes Shop Pay, Shopify Capital, Shopify Plus, POS systems and AI tools. Revenue grew at a 26% CAGR from 2021 to 2025, the company turned profitable in 2023, and analysts expect revenue and EPS to grow at 28% and 44% CAGRs from 2025 to 2028. The stock trades at 68 times next year's earnings, a premium the author says could be justified by market share gains in enterprise commerce and the high-margin Merchant Solutions segment. The article notes the stock could remain under pressure if inflation stays hot and interest rates stay elevated.
- Lumentum Fell to $750 With Marvell’s Offer Worth $820. Its November 5 Report Tests the Floor
Lumentum agreed to be acquired by Marvell Technology for 4.5 Marvell shares per Lumentum share, a package worth $820 at Marvell's $182 price, while Lumentum fell to $750; the deal is expected to close in the first half of 2028. Lumentum traded at 26x forward earnings, below its five-year average of 30x, and the article says the stock would be about 17% higher at that average multiple than Monday's close. Its September-quarter revenue rose 136.5% to $1.26 billion, adjusted EPS of $4.57 beat its $4.05–$4.35 range, and it guided to $1.575–$1.625 billion revenue for the December quarter. The article identifies the main risk as an easing of the laser shortage, noting the CEO said parts were effectively sold out through early 2029 and that Coherent's report on Wednesday is the first test. Alphabet's Google Cloud revenue rose 103% and Arista guided to 38%–40% growth in 2027, suggesting customers are still spending heavily.
