According to the transcript, Tesla, Amazon, SpaceX, Lam Research and SoFi are among companies opting out of tokenized stocks. The speaker says roughly 70% of the companies OKX initially wanted to tokenize have now opted out, and OKX has no launch date yet. The speaker believes tokenized stocks will eventually be wildly successful, but argues Nasdaq sees them as competition and is encouraging its listed companies not to participate.

- Elon Musk’s Tesla and SpaceX Block Their Stock From OKX-ICE Tokenized Venue
Six more companies, including Amazon, Tesla, SpaceX, Netflix, Lam Research and SoFi Technologies, have objected to OKXICE TSV trading their shares, according to an updated notice dated Nov. 2. The total has risen to 56, from nine on Oct. 15 and 50 in the Oct. 30 notice. Under the SEC's innovation exemption, a timely written objection bars the venue from listing a third-party tokenized version of that stock, though the objection applies only to that venue. Apple is one of the few megacap names still not on the list, and the venue can still list shares that issuers tokenize themselves.
- Intel, IBM, Oracle and IonQ latest to object to OKX-ICE tokenized stocks
Intel, IBM, Oracle and IonQ have objected to having their U.S. stocks listed in tokenized form on the exchange proposed by cryptocurrency exchange OKX and ICE, the parent of the New York Stock Exchange. With these four additions, 26 companies have now filed objections, including Alphabet, Wells Fargo and Goldman Sachs. The proposal came weeks after the SEC approved temporary innovation exemptions for tokenized U.S. stocks, under which Tokenized Securities Venues (TSVs) can offer limited trading in tokenized NMS stocks. Many companies opting out have U.S. listings on Nasdaq and the NYSE, and Nasdaq advised issuers in September to be “cautious” about participating. OKXICE initially proposed 62 companies listing tokenized stocks, so about 41% have chosen not to participate as of Monday. Co-chair Andrew Cuomo, a former New York governor, said objecting was a “very natural response” and he expects more names to be added.
- Wells Fargo, Cisco, Intuit Among 6 More Companies Objecting to Tokenized Stocks
Six more companies, including Wells Fargo, Cisco, Marvell, Arm, Moderna and Intuit, have objected to trading their shares on OKXICE TSV, according to an Oct. 23 notice, bringing the total to 22, up from 16 on Oct. 19 and nine on Oct. 15. The notices do not explain the companies' reasons or the effect of an objection. The venue, a 50-50 joint venture of Intercontinental Exchange and OKX's U.S. holding company, plans to let approved users trade tokenized U.S. stocks 24/7, paired with stablecoins such as USDC, under the SEC's innovation exemption. The latest notice also flags risks, including no circuit breakers beyond trading halts, no policies on maximal extractable value, unsettled questions for broker-dealers on trade reporting and best execution, and smart contracts that can be upgraded without advance notice. Nasdaq has said it will opt its shares out of the exemption.
- SpaceX blocks tokenized stock listing on OKXICE despite offshore trading boom
SpaceX has objected to OKXICE's proposed listing of tokenized versions of its shares, according to a November 2 public notice from the venture of OKX and Intercontinental Exchange. It joins Tesla and Amazon among 56 companies objecting to such listings. Under the SEC's five-year Innovation Exemption introduced in September, platforms like OKXICE can offer tokenized US stock trading without registering as national exchanges, but companies have 30 days to object to tokens issued by third parties. Tokenized SpaceX shares have already traded heavily offshore since its June public offering, with Backpack's SPCX token recording $1.08 billion in onchain volume in June and Kraken's SPCXx $852 million, while Nasdaq warned that such trading could fragment liquidity.

- Tesla and SpaceX Held On to All 30,221 Bitcoin in Q3. Is Elon Musk Still Bullish on BTC?
As of September 30, Tesla and SpaceX together held all 30,221 Bitcoin, worth about $2.53 billion, without buying or selling any coins in Q3 2026. Tesla holds 11,509 BTC ($962 million) and SpaceX holds 18,712 BTC (about $1.57 billion). Tesla reported net income of $787 million, down 42.7% from a year earlier, and a roughly $290 million Bitcoin mark-to-market gain on its books accounted for more than a third of that figure. Bitcoin later fell back to about $81,881, roughly 35% below its October 2025 all-time high of $126,080. The article says Tesla's unchanged holdings since 2022 point to inertia rather than renewed conviction, and neither company has announced plans to buy or sell.

- 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.
- Anthropic's AI Is Getting Cheaper to Use. That's Becoming a Problem for Its Business
Anthropic said price cuts on new model versions and contractual discounts offset about $600 million of third-quarter revenue growth driven by higher usage. Meanwhile, compute and infrastructure expenses rose about 77%, from $5.56 billion to $9.86 billion, faster than 47% revenue growth. The company said $5 billion of compute under short-term commitments cost significantly more than comparable multiyear capacity, helping swing operating profit from $974 million in the second quarter to a $567 million operating loss in the third. Its aggregate lease and purchasing commitments total roughly $895.4 billion, substantially all related to compute and infrastructure. The article frames the harder question as whether Anthropic can cut model prices faster than the cost of building and running them falls.
- Do You Know How Much of Your 401(k) Is Riding on the AI Trade Voters Want Paused?
According to The Kobeissi Letter's estimate, AI-related stocks make up about 48% of the S&P 500, so a near-retiree with $720,000 in an S&P 500 index fund could have roughly $345,600 tied to AI. A CNBC survey found 52% of voters favor pausing advanced AI development until Congress establishes safety regulations. Major tech firms are spending heavily on AI infrastructure, with Amazon expecting about $220 billion and Microsoft roughly $170 billion in 2026 capital spending. The House passed the Ratepayer Protection Act 417-3, but it stalled in the Senate on a 57-43 vote, short of the 60 needed, as Democrats sought stronger rules. The article notes that 401(k) withdrawals are taxed as ordinary income and that high income can raise Medicare premiums above the $218,000 joint threshold, and it suggests rebalancing inside the plan, where trades are not taxed.

- Here's What SpaceX Stock Will Be Worth by 2027 if Elon Musk's $1 Trillion Revenue Call Is Correct
On SpaceX's third-quarter earnings call, Elon Musk said reaching annual recurring revenue of $500 billion to $1 trillion by the end of 2027 was not out of the question. Hitting $1 trillion in ARR would require about $250 billion in quarterly recurring revenue by Q4, while the super intelligence (SI) segment grew 830% from $813 million to $7.56 billion in the third quarter. At 10 times sales, $1 trillion in ARR would imply a $10 trillion market cap and a share price of about $736, versus about $138 now. The author believes SpaceX will fall well short of Musk's projection, but argues that strong AI demand could keep revenue growth rapid.
