- Bitcoin ETF outflows hit $643M, led by BlackRock and Fidelity
Bitcoin ETFs saw net outflows of $643 million on Friday, led by BlackRock at $233.7 million, followed by Fidelity at $201 million and Arc B at $129.5 million. The funds had also recorded net outflows in each of the four preceding sessions, and the week was still only down $202 million. The host notes that ETF flows tend to react to market moves because these funds don't trade 24/7 like Bitcoin, so the impact of after-hours events often shows up the next day. He contrasts this with the worst hack in history, worth $6 billion, and a sharp tech sell-off in which Intel fell 30% and Alphabet and Amazon were each down about 12% at one point overnight, while Bitcoin fell only 4–5% and gold also declined.

AMD fell 3% to $489.03 ahead of its Q3 2026 results, scheduled for November 3 after the market closes, after an 11% drop on October 30 when Intel said its PC slowdown would last at least through the first half of 2027; Intel shares plunged 29% that session.

- AWS Growth Wins Amazon Stock a $330 Upgrade
Phillip Securities upgraded Amazon to Buy from Accumulate on Monday and raised its price target from $320 to $330, arguing that AWS demand justifies the company's heavier spending. Amazon shares were up 5.22% as of 10:30 a.m. ET. Analyst Helena Wang raised her fiscal 2027 revenue estimate by 2%, net income forecast by 3% and capex estimate by 3%, while acknowledging that aggressive spending pressures free cash flow. In the third quarter, net sales rose 12% to $201.9 billion and AWS sales grew 39.3% to $46.0 billion, its fastest pace in nearly five years. Net income fell to $20.7 billion, or $1.89 per diluted share, because the year-ago quarter included $9.5 billion in pre-tax gains from the Anthropic investment.
- This Up-and-Coming Tech Company Just Delivered 44% Revenue Growth, and It Has Nothing to Do With AI.
SoFi Technologies posted record adjusted net revenue of $1.4 billion in the third quarter of 2026, up 44% year over year, and GAAP net income of $241 million. Growth came from banking, lending, investing and fintech services rather than AI chips or models. The company is building a connected financial platform: members rose 35% to 17.1 million, products held grew 44% to 26.7 million, and more than half of new products opened in the quarter came from existing members. SoFi also has eight businesses each generating over $100 million in annualized revenue, and net profit rose 73%. The article says investors should watch whether SoFi can keep growing, turn that growth into lasting profits, and whether newer businesses such as recently announced blockchain payments contribute meaningfully.
- The EPS 'Miss That Wasn't Gave You and Me an Opportunity to Scoop Up Alphabet Cheaply
Alphabet reported GAAP EPS of $2.12 against a consensus of $2.97, ending a 12-quarter streak of beats, and shares fell 12.64% on earnings day, from $324.89 to $283.82. The author attributes the miss to a one-time $8.70 billion loss on equity securities, which cut net income by $6.70 billion and diluted EPS by $0.55, and argues that this mark-to-market swing sits outside the ad and cloud businesses. The author points to revenue of $127.58 billion (up 24.6%), operating income up 29.93%, and Google Cloud revenue up 103% to $30.71 billion as evidence of strong core operations. The author also flags risks, including capex of $51.36 billion (up 114.4%), negative free cash flow of -$9.07 billion, and dilution from share sales under an at-the-market program. The stock stood at $279.84, down 18.67% over the past month.
