- Is Nvidia a Buy Right Now?
Nvidia shares are about 15% below their all-time high, as concerns that the AI infrastructure build-out could slow have triggered a broad sell-off in AI infrastructure stocks. Nvidia is set to report earnings on Nov. 17, after guiding for $108 billion in third-quarter revenue, implying 106% year-over-year growth. The stock trades at about 23 times this year's estimated earnings, while analysts who once expected long-term annual earnings growth as high as 40% to 50% now see growth of about 14% a year over the next three to five years. The article argues the valuation could still look reasonable even at slower growth, but the stock could fall if the infrastructure trade deteriorates, and it points to diversifying a portfolio and keeping some cash on hand.
- Disney plans several thousand layoffs, asks some managers to cut costs by up to 20%
Disney is planning to cut several thousand jobs, according to people familiar with the matter, and some managers have been asked to reduce costs by up to 20%. It is the latest round of layoffs since Josh D'Amaro became CEO earlier this year, following plans in April to cut as many as 1,000 employees, mainly in marketing, and in September to cut about 300, largely in HR and technology. Disney also introduced an early retirement program in August, and Chief People Officer Sonia Coleman said involuntary staff reductions have already begun in some areas and will continue into next year. The company had about 231,000 employees at the end of fiscal 2025 and will report fiscal fourth-quarter earnings on Nov. 17.
- Job openings posted big September gain in positive sign for labor market ahead of payrolls report
The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported job openings rose to 7.52 million in September, up 333,000 from August and above the Dow Jones consensus of 7.15 million. The openings rate climbed to 4.5% of the workforce, up 0.2 percentage point, while quits rose by 321,000 to 3.36 million, the highest since March 2025. Hires increased by 131,000 to 5.4 million, and layoffs and discharges fell by 127,000 to 1.64 million, the lowest since March 2025. Openings grew most in state and local government (108,000), professional and business services (106,000) and manufacturing (54,000). Ahead of Friday's October nonfarm payrolls report, Wall Street expects a gain of 59,000 after September's 29,000, with unemployment seen holding at 4.2%.
- Anthropic touts Claude’s chip design skills to investors ahead of IPO, report says
According to The Information, Anthropic (NASDAQ:ANT) is highlighting its in-house chip design capabilities to prospective IPO investors, ahead of a planned listing that could value the company near $1.5 trillion. Its newly formed 15-person hardware unit is using Claude models to speed up custom silicon development, shortening workflows typical of established designers such as Nvidia and AMD. Shares of Synopsys Inc (NASDAQ:SNPS) fell 2.5% and Cadence Design Systems Inc (NASDAQ:CDNS) dropped 4.5% in Tuesday trading, reflecting concern that AI could disrupt an electronic design software market projected to generate a combined $16 billion this fiscal year. The article notes that broader commercial use may face resistance because chipmakers guard proprietary designs closely. Its primary investors have poured roughly $90 billion into Anthropic while also serving as its infrastructure and cloud providers, so in-house chip development could complicate relations with partners such as Amazon, Alphabet, Nvidia and AMD.

- Apple’s ’unprecedented’ memory warning adds fuel to wobbly Micron, SK hynix trade
CEO John Ternus called memory pricing 'unprecedented' on the earnings call and said the prices Apple pays will keep rising beyond the December quarter. Apple guided December-quarter gross margin to 45% to 46%, down from 47.9% in September, and CFO Kevan Parekh said most of the decline reflects higher memory costs. Apple also said Mac and iPad supply will stay constrained and that its manufacturing purchase obligations rose $33 billion between June and September. Apple's comments confirm pricing power for memory makers such as Micron, SK hynix and Samsung Electronics, while TrendForce expects conventional DRAM contract prices to rise 10% to 15% and NAND flash prices to climb 15% to 20% in the fourth quarter.
