- Is Google's New Cryptocurrency Service a Reason to Buy Ethereum or Solana?
Alphabet announced on October 28 its Google Multi-Party Compute (MPC) crypto security platform, with commercial launch scheduled for early 2027, and already uses it to secure its own digital assets on Ethereum and Solana. The platform splits a wallet's private key into fragments held on separate systems and checks each transaction against an institution's rules, supporting ECDSA and Ed25519 signing. The author argues the benefit to Ethereum and Solana is minor, since safer custody does not itself create demand, and notes Ethereum ETFs saw $635 million in net outflows and Solana ETFs $24.8 million in the first seven trading days of October 2026. The article says the signals to watch in the first half of 2027 are ETF flows and bank announcements naming Google's service.

- Bank of America Clients Are Dumping Meta and Google Stocks at a Record Pace
Bank of America's weekly equity flows note, reported October 28, 2026, says clients sold U.S. stocks for a second straight week, led by record outflows from communication services after a sharp post-earnings sell-off in Meta. For the week of October 19 through October 23, it was the sector's largest outflow since it became standalone in September 2018. Meta fell 6.98% to $648.85 on October 22 and closed October 28 at $612.49, down 15.5% from $725.18 on September 30. The State Street Communication Services Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLC) closed at $103.14 on October 28, down 6.4% from $110.19 on October 20, and fell 1.85% after hours to $101.23, below its 52-week low of $102.62. Meta and Alphabet together make up about 43.5% of the fund, and Alphabet's Class A shares dropped 9.97% after hours on October 28 to $292.50 after its third-quarter report, a move outside the flows week. The article says that if XLC stays below $102.62 and another communication services outflow appears in the October 26 to 30 note, pressure on the fund could continue, while a close above $110.19 would signal the selling has run its course.

Latest news
- SpaceX and Tesla face policy and governance risks after Democratic gains
Investing.com reports that the Democratic takeover of Congress is now a direct policy risk for SpaceX (SPCX) and Tesla (TSLA), which fell in the session by about 5% and 5.6% respectively. SpaceX faces pressure from its reliance on government contracts, tighter scrutiny of Starlink's military role, and proposed Texas data-center restrictions that could slow and raise the cost of its AI infrastructure. Morgan Stanley's improved outlook, with its 2027 revenue estimate raised to $175B and its free-cash-flow-positive forecast moved up to 2031, could be offset by a larger political discount. The article calls Tesla more vulnerable, since its valuation depends on autonomy and AI that could face tighter scrutiny, and a SpaceX combination would raise governance concerns, with Barclays estimating Musk could hold about 56% of voting power on roughly 37% of shares.
- Should You Forget VOO and Buy This Magnificent ETF Instead?
The article compares the Roundhill Magnificent Seven ETF (MAGS) with the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO) as the Nasdaq-100 has fallen about 9% from its early-October high on concerns over AI infrastructure costs. MAGS has averaged 36.9% annual returns since its April 2023 inception through September 30, but only about 12.2% over the past year, mostly due to Apple. The article suggests investors doubtful about AI payoffs may consider VOO instead, noting its portfolio is about 39.7% tech and spread across financials, pharmaceuticals and large-value stocks. It cites Vanguard research suggesting AI's biggest winners could be companies that use AI rather than those building it. VOO has averaged about 12% annually over the past five years, including the 2022 bear market.

In the first quarter, capex reached $28.5B, free cash flow was negative $5.4B, and interest expense rose 55% to $1.4B. The article says the bullish case depends on the backlog converting to revenue on schedule, while total liabilities of $236B remain a risk to watch.
- ELEKTROS Highlights Northern New York Lithium Potential Amid Growing Focus on Domestic Battery Supply
ELEKTROS Inc. (OTC PINK:ELEK) is conducting an initial, exploratory assessment of a possible hard-rock lithium property in northern New York close to the Canadian border, but has not acquired the property and no independently verified mineral resource or reserve exists. The company is also exploring development relationships tied to its multi-port EV charging patent, U.S. Patent No. 12,522,100 B1, though no prototype, patent license, customer deployment or revenue has been announced. The article cites remarks by Elon Musk and President Donald J. Trump on lithium-ion batteries and critical minerals in general, which do not refer to the company. A Benchmark Mineral Intelligence outlook cited by Benzinga suggests global lithium demand could more than triple by 2050, but this is an industry projection, not a company forecast.
