- Stock Market Today: Dow Futures Plunge 323 Points, Apple Sinks, and Iran Strikes Send Oil Soaring
Dow Jones Industrial Average futures fell 323 points in early trading on midterm Election Day, mainly because Apple shares dropped about 4% premarket. Apple’s EPS of $2.10 beat the $1.99 estimate, but its gross margin forecast of 45% to 46% reflected a global memory chip shortage. A reported U.S. strike on Iran’s Qeshm Island pushed oil higher, with WTI near $97 and Brent near $105, while Iran said it would respond “forcefully.” The 10-year Treasury yield rose to about 5%, and the Nasdaq 100, already in correction more than 10% below its October 6 record, saw NVIDIA fall 15% over the past month to $202, with the VIX back in the low 20s. Next up are September JOLTS data (expected 7.1 million openings) today, election results tonight, and October payrolls on Friday.

Australian AI inference provider DATA GLOBAL PTY LTD has deployed an NVIDIA DGX B300 AI server cluster at the Micron21 Data Centre to enter the Australian market. Under a 3-year framework agreement, the project covers 128 DGX B300 servers, rolled out in phases, with each server rated at 15 kW full-load power. Its Token Factory platform, offering token-based pay-as-you-go inference via RESTful APIs, will soon launch commercially, with 3–6 months from deposit to service launch subject to hardware, power and cooling allocation. The asset-light model reduces upfront capital expenditure, and the firm says its onshore setup supports data-sovereignty and privacy compliance under Australian law.

- Block's Adjusted Profit Jumps as Losses Climb: Rapid Earnings Reaction
Block (XYZ) grew third-quarter gross profit 22% year over year, ahead of its own guidance, and raised its full-year outlook again; shares rose about 8% in early after-hours trading.

- Arista Revenue Up 58% as Q4 Outlook Slows: Rapid Earnings Reaction
Arista Networks reported third-quarter revenue of $3.66 billion, up 58.5% from a year earlier and above its own $3.3 billion guidance, and shares rose about 8% after hours. However, fourth-quarter guidance of $3.9 billion to $4.0 billion implies only 7% to 9% growth from the third quarter, signaling a sharp slowdown. GAAP gross margin fell to 63.6% from 64.6% as the mix shifted toward lower-margin product sales, which made up 87% of revenue. GAAP operating margin still rose to 44.9% from 42.4%, because operating expenses grew much more slowly than sales. GAAP diluted EPS of $1.22 exceeded the non-GAAP figure because it includes a $134.5 million gain on strategic investments, so the article considers operating profit the cleaner measure.
