DTE Energy agreed to sell its non-utility DTE Vantage business for about $3 billion to institutional investors advised by the Global Infrastructure group at J.P. Morgan Asset Management, with closing expected in the first half of 2027. The company will focus on its regulated electric and gas utilities, planning about $44 billion of customer-focused capital over the next five years, and has invested nearly $4.1 billion in them through the third quarter of 2026, remaining on track to invest $6.1 billion this year. Third-quarter earnings were $470 million, or $2.25 per diluted share, versus $419 million, or $2.01, a year earlier. On data centers, the Michigan Public Service Commission approved DTE's Google energy contracts, and DTE is moving forward to serve two hyperscale data center customers in Michigan. DTE Electric also filed a 20-year Integrated Resource Plan calling for a mix of renewable energy, energy storage and nuclear.

- Allegion: 3 Key Takeaways for Long-Term Investors
At its third-quarter 2026 earnings call on October 22, 2026, Allegion raised its full-year 2026 reported revenue growth outlook to 9.5% to 10.5% and its adjusted EPS target to $9.05 to $9.10. Management said non-residential demand in the Americas remains broad-based, supported by architectural specification writing and data center construction. Allegion is adjusting wholesale prices across select categories as input costs rise, and it sees continued shifts from mechanical to electronic locks. The company raised its Americas organic growth assumption to 7% to 8%, and it cited the $90 million acquisition of Overly Door Company as complementing its core security offerings.
- Schneider electric boosts outlook again after data - center demand lifts sales
Schneider Electric raised its full-year targets for the second time this year, now expecting organic adjusted EBITA growth of 18%–21% (previously 14%–19%) and organic revenue growth of 12%–14%, driven by strong data-center demand. Third-quarter revenue rose 18% to 11.46 billion euros ($12.86 billion), beating analysts' expectations of 11.13 billion euros, with data-center demand more than doubling and showing triple-digit growth in the quarter. The company is using the windfall from AI-driven demand for dealmaking, including a $22.6 billion deal for PTC, a $1.35 billion takeover bid for Shelly Group and a $3.1 billion agreement to acquire Cognite. It expects data-center demand to stay strong in the fourth quarter, with pricing offsetting raw-material inflation and tariffs for the full year.

- Cosigo Resources Completes Drilling Campaign at Taraira and Announces Non-Brokered Convertible Debenture Financing
Cosigo Resources has demobilized its drill rig from the Taraira Ridge crest to its base camp in preparation for a drilling campaign targeted for 2027. The recent campaign (Holes #26 to #30) brought cumulative drill coverage to 5.5 km of the 27-km ridge system, with Holes #26 (139.83 meters) and #27 (141.5 meters) reaching the greatest depths drilled on the property; the company stresses these figures do not indicate gold presence, continuity or grade. Core and RC chips are being prepared for dispatch to independent ISO/IEC 17025-accredited laboratories, a process that may take as much as six weeks, while a multi-method assay program addressing coarse, uneven gold distribution continues. Separately, Cosigo announced a non-brokered offering of unsecured convertible debentures for gross proceeds of up to CAD$115,500, with 15% annual interest payable at maturity, a six-month term, and subject to regulatory approval.

- Binance Cuts Off SignalPlus API Keys Over 'Potential Security Issue' at Trading Platform
Binance has removed all API keys linked to SignalPlus, a Hong Kong-based third-party crypto options and derivatives platform, after SignalPlus reported a 'potential security issue.' Binance said its own systems are unaffected and user funds remain safe, and urged SignalPlus users to review their positions and open orders and wait for SignalPlus to confirm the issue is resolved before reconnecting. Automated strategies running through SignalPlus will stop until users create new keys, and Binance asked all integrated third-party platforms to review their security controls. The move follows Binance's hack a week earlier, in which about $6.4 billion was drained from hot wallets and which the FBI has attributed to North Korean hackers; Binance says it has replenished about 98% of the stolen assets and is reopening withdrawals in phases.
- Renegade Gold Identifies New Gold Targets Along the LP-Uchi Corridor in Red Lake
Renegade Gold reported first-pass till and soil geochemical results from its 2026 program at the LP-Uchi project, about 50 km east of Red Lake, Ontario, identifying multiple new multi-kilometre gold anomalies along the LP fault corridor. The anomalies coincide with fault structures interpreted from the winter 2025/2026 drone magnetic survey, and 884 samples were collected in total. The results complement high-grade channel samples from BobJo (16.2 g/t Au over 5.0 m) and Belanger (25.9 g/t Au over 0.3 m), and fieldwork across the Confederation Belt is now complete. The company plans to rank the targets and advance them toward drill-readiness for its 2027 exploration program.
- Wendy's rejects takeover proposal from Nelson Peltz's Trian
Wendy's said it is rejecting a $1.4 billion takeover offer from a group led by Nelson Peltz's Trian Fund Management, which proposed $7.35 per share in cash on Oct. 28 to take the burger chain private. The group also includes BlueFive Capital, Sixth Street Partners and Flynn Group, one of Wendy's largest franchisees. An independent board committee formed in February concluded the proposal 'substantially undervalues' Wendy's and does not reflect the potential gains from its ongoing turnaround. In its third-quarter report, same-store sales fell for a seventh straight quarter, but earnings and revenue beat Wall Street expectations, and Trian declined to comment.

- Microsoft Is Executing an Irreproducible Balance-Sheet-Backed Infrastructure Pre-Sale at Scale
The author keeps adding to Microsoft (MSFT), most recently at $555.80 after the October earnings report, because the company sells AI and cloud capacity years ahead and funds the build with its own cash flow. Commercial remaining performance obligation (RPO) rose 73% to $677 billion, Azure grew 48%, and Microsoft Cloud revenue reached $63.9 billion, up 30% year over year. Operating cash flow hit $58.0 billion, and Microsoft still returned $10.2 billion to shareholders while raising its quarterly dividend to $0.98 from $0.91. The risks the author flags include capex of about $170 billion expected for the calendar year and a 23.19% drop in free cash flow in Q4 FY26. The article also explains why the author does not invest in Amazon or Oracle, pointing to Amazon's negative free cash flow and Oracle's reliance on outside funding.
- Apple Vs. Tesla: Low CapEx Only Matters if Non-Cyclical Cash Flows Come With It
Apple and Tesla both reported spending below expectations: Apple's fiscal 2026 capex fell 28.9% to $9.04 billion, while Tesla cut its 2026 capex guidance to about $20 billion from $25 billion. Apple's September-quarter revenue rose 11.7% to a record $114.48 billion, with Services reaching $31.6 billion at a 76% gross margin, while Tesla's revenue was flat at $28.05 billion and GAAP operating income fell to $718 million. Tesla said capex would keep expanding over the next few years, and Elon Musk put spending on its planned Terafab chip fab at “certainly in the tens of billions” through early 2028. The author views Apple's cash flow as more resilient in a downturn, while Tesla suits investors willing to fund autonomy before cash arrives. Apple shares are up 28.92% this year, while Tesla is down 14.35%.
