Q4 guidance implies further NVDA top-line acceleration, gross margin expansion to 75%, and strong operating efficiency as well.

Valuation has become attractive: NVDA's P/E dropped to 44, below its five-year a

      Gold enters 2026 at record highs after an exceptional rally driven by strong central bank demand, macro uncertainty, and a shift in strategic asset allocation. Gold has long reflected global economic and political stress, with its price typically rising during periods of heightened uncertainty. In the wake of the global financial crisis, gold surged past $1,000. During the Covid-19 pandemic, it climbed to $2,000. Then, when Trump announced tariffs in April, it surpassed the $3,000 mark. The $4,000 mark was hit during the recent prolonged US government shutdown. Global gold demand hit 1,313 tonnes in the third quarter of 2025, the strongest quarterly total on record, according to the World Gold Council. This surge was driven by strong investment demand, including purchases via exchange-trad

      $NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$   Nvidia: Reiterate Buy As Blackwell To Drive Growth Through Next Year Nvidia's TAM is projected at $2 trillion, with a conservative market cap estimate of $8T in 10 years, presenting limited downside risk for long-term shareholders. A bear case assumes 50% market share and 50% margin, while a bull case assumes 90% market share and 78% margin, leading to a $54T market cap in ten years. Key risks include a severe recession resetting client spend, loss of CEO Jensen Huang, and competition from AMD, Intel, and start-ups like Groq and Etched. Despite risks, Nvidia's strong moat and AI-driven chip advancements suggest a strong buy with huge upside potential and limited downside. Data center revenue grew 154% from the prio

      $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$   Tesla: A Weak Hold Ahead Of The Robotaxi Event Tesla (TSLA) is currently preparing for its October 10 Robotaxi event, and investors’ eyes will be on what’s announced there. TSLA stock trades at a truly nosebleed valuation when using trailing earnings and growth rates, but if the company can really launch a fully autonomous global Robotaxi fleet, then it may start growing again. Tesla is trying to build truly autonomous EVs that can run anywhere in the world, including in cities that it has never been specifically trained on. Competing services like Google’s (GOOG) Waymo have taken a more conservative approach, launching robotaxis only in cities where they were rigorously pre-trained. This distinction makes the FSD

      $Intel(INTC)$   Should Qualcomm Buy Intel? Intel Corporation is struggling with high costs, a weak balance sheet, and declining market share, making it a potential acquisition target for more profitable chip companies. Qualcomm Incorporated, with strong free cash flows and better management, could be interested in acquiring Intel, but the deal poses significant risks and complexities. A stock-for-stock deal would result in substantial dilution and lower earnings per share for Qualcomm, making the acquisition unattractive for QCOM shareholders. Regulatory hurdles are high, and the FTC is likely to oppose such a large deal in the semiconductor space, further reducing the likelihood of a successful acquisition. Re

      Slashed.  The Federal Reserve lowered its benchmark interest rate by half of a percentage point this afternoon, starting the next phase of the policy cycle with a bang. Officials are squarely focused on a slowing U.S. labor market, with inflation still too high but closing in on the central bank’s 2% annual target. The Federal Open Market Committee now has a new target range for the federal-funds rate of 4.75% to 5%, after holding rates steady since July 2023. Market pricing was all over the place in the week before the meeting, with odds shifting between quarter- and half-point reductions. The bigger move is an effort to front-load cuts and get ahead of further weakening in the jobs market. The median estimate in the latest so-called "dot plot" implies a fed-funds rate target range o

      Astera Labs: This Meme-Like Stock Is A Sell $Astera Labs, Inc.(ALAB)$  Astera Labs, Inc. provides building blocks for computer systems, but its financials reveal a less compelling picture. But investors should not extrapolate its financials too far. Astera Labs stock's valuation at 33x forward sales is unjustified, considering fluctuating revenue growth rates and uncertainty in profitability. Astera Labs, Inc., a supplier to AI-focused hyperscalers, has seen strong performance after it went public. The company offers semiconductor-based connectivity solutions for cloud and AI infrastructure. The biggest risk is the high valuation of the company, which is trading at around 50 times annualized sales. While Astera Labs operates in an attractive
