- S&P 500, Nasdaq Recover From AI Rout On US Midterm Election Day — META, AAPL, AMD, SKHY In Focus
The S&P 500 and Nasdaq closed higher on Tuesday as tech and chip stocks recovered ahead of the US midterm election results. The S&P 500 rose 0.4%, the Nasdaq 100 gained 0.7%, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average eased 0.4%, while semiconductor ETFs rose between 2% and 2.5% on strength in Nvidia, AMD, Micron and Broadcom. Apple shares dropped about 2% after its quarterly margins and sales failed to impress investors. AMD reported a 45% jump in third-quarter revenue to a record $13.4 billion, driven by demand for AI processors and data center chips. Prediction-market odds of almost 75% that Democrats win the Senate could affect regulatory oversight in defense, AI and healthcare.
- 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.

- After 14-Year Hiatus, China Restarts 'Sharp Knife' Drills with an ASEAN Country: What's Behind It
China and Indonesia have resumed their joint counter-terrorism exercise 'Sharp Knife' after a 14-year gap. The latest edition runs in Guangdong from late October to early November, is the third in the series after 2011 and 2012, and focuses on hostage rescue in mountainous terrain with coordination between troops and unmanned systems. According to the article, the two countries face shared threats mainly from jihadist groups such as the East Turkestan Islamic Party, which is backed by Turkey, and have expanded cooperation to transnational crime. The drills come as Indonesia plans to buy J-10C fighters from China; its defence minister confirmed the plan on 16 October 2025, and media reported the order was raised from 42 to 84 aircraft.
- Jim Cramer sees signs of life in tech stocks — but not from the usual winners
CNBC's Jim Cramer said a new group of technology stocks may be emerging as market leaders, as heavyweights such as Nvidia, Microsoft, Alphabet and Meta have struggled to sustain recent rallies. On Tuesday, gains from Broadcom and Micron supported the major averages, and Cramer pointed to Advanced Micro Devices and Arista Networks after strong quarterly results, as well as Oracle, whose shares rose nearly 6% in the session. He flagged risks including growing local opposition to data center development, which could hit smaller developers such as Iren, Nebius and CoreWeave, as well as the ongoing war with Iran. Cramer said he would like to wait for the 'crescendo' before committing more money back into tech.
- Why Thomson Reuters Stock Plummeted by Almost 10% Today
Thomson Reuters (TRI) shares fell 9.87% on Tuesday after the company released third-quarter results before the market opened, with revenue and adjusted profit both below analyst estimates. Revenue rose 10% year over year to $1.83 billion, and adjusted net income rose at a similar rate to $350 million ($0.81 per share), compared with consensus estimates of about $1.91 billion and $0.89 per share. The 'big three' customer segments accounted for 88% of quarterly revenue, and the company raised its 2026 revenue growth forecast to 9.5% from 8%, after selling its global print business on Oct. 1. The author says the company is performing well but the stock is expensive, with a PEG ratio of about 4.7 versus a level of 1 that is traditionally considered fair value, and he would not add to the stock at current levels.

- OpenAI Wants to Rebrand AI Data Centers, Use Them to 'Protect the Grid'
OpenAI launched its Grid Protectors Program, under which future AI facilities would reduce electricity use during grid emergencies or peak demand to limit costs for other customers. The first example is a planned facility in Effingham County, Georgia, covered by a 25-year agreement with Georgia Power for about 3,200 megawatts, with up to 1,000 megawatts available for temporary reductions. Georgia Power projects roughly $950 million in annual customer savings from 2029, but those estimates cover its broader customer portfolio and remain projections. The article also reports OpenAI is preparing to rebrand data centers as 'AI compute campuses' amid growing public opposition, and has not yet disclosed binding demand-reduction commitments for its other facilities.
