Northern Star reports higher costs and lower output
Full story: https://grafa.com/en/news/australia/northern-star-reports-higher-costs-and-lower-output Northern Star Resources reported a lower gold output of nearly 364,000 ounces alongside a 20% cost increase to $3,217 per ounce for the September quarter. The operational update coincides with an uninvited takeover approach from Gold Fields, which previously valued the Australian miner at nearly $39 billion. Northern Star stated that the cost increases stemmed from integrating its new $1.8 billion mill at the Kalgoorlie Consolidated Gold Mines operations. Northern Star Resources (ASX:NST) posted a quarterly gold production drop of roughly 19% to nearly 364,000 ounces while its all-in sustaining costs rose 20% to $3,217 per ounce. The latest quarterly figures followed an uninvited takeover pr
My vote: D, down 5%-10%. Netflix remains a strong business, but earnings reactions are often about expectations rather than whether the company is doing well. With the market already pricing in continued subscriber, advertising and margin growth, weaker-than-expected guidance could outweigh a solid quarter. If I owned $Netflix(NFLX)$, I would hold rather than buy more ahead of earnings. I would want to see whether advertising growth, operating margins and future revenue guidance justify the valuation before adding. Netflix can still deliver strong long-term growth, but at elevated expectations, even a small disappointment can produce a surprisingly large reaction. My prediction: good business, demanding expectations, -5% to -10% af
I think the AI, satellite and automotive ecosystem could create significant long-term synergies, but I would choose option ③: the exchange ratio and shareholder dilution matter most. $SpaceX(SPCX)$ AI revenue growth is impressive, yet its enormous capital expenditure raises questions about how sustainable that growth will be. As a Tesla investor, I see potential in combining FSD, Robotaxi, Optimus, energy storage, Starlink and AI computing. However, strategic synergies do not automatically translate into shareholder value. The valuation of both companies and the terms of any merger would determine whether Tesla shareholders truly benefit. I would remain optimistic but cautious until the details become clearer. For me, the key is wh

US Market and AI Outlook by James James shared his outlook for US equity and bond markets, examining the relationship between AI capital expenditure, long-term Treasury yields and equity valuations. He also discussed potential risks in the AI industry, including debt financing and excess infrastructure capacity.

While US CPI Was Firmer Than Expected, Warsh Signalled Patience; AI Selloff Weighed on Asian Tech Equities 【 CSOP SG Weekly 】
【Money Market Fund】 US$ MMF Net 7-day Yield: +3.70%* Over the course of the last week, US Treasury yields retraced to new highs on Wednesday following a firm CPI report, but reversed lower as AI equity valuation concerns and Fed officials' commentary tempered rate-hike expectations. Warsh said on Friday that “the world has broadly conformed to our expectations” since the last FOMC meeting in September. Looking ahead, pre-October FOMC blackout period begins, limiting policymaker commentary, while data calendar is also relatively light. As of Friday, markets largely priced in a hold in October and a 25bp hike in December. * 7-day net yield is calculated based on calendar days and NAVs in 5-decimal. 【REITs】 S$ SRT YTD total return: -10.41% As of 16 Oct 2026,

SpaceX AI Revenue Surges 830%—And a Tesla Merger Is on the Table: Ecosystem or Capex?
SpaceX delivered a blowout third-quarter report. Revenue reached $14.58 billion, up 161% year over year, while net income came in at $4.4 billion versus a $1.1 billion loss a year earlier. Shares jumped about 8% in after-hours trading. The biggest surprise was not rockets or Starlink. SpaceX’s Super Intelligence segment generated $7.56 billion in revenue, up 830% year over year. It has now surpassed Connectivity to become the company’s largest business. AI infrastructure, cloud services, Grok and Cursor are rapidly changing what SpaceX represents to investors. (SpaceX earnings release) During the earnings call, Elon Musk added another major catalyst: He said combining Tesla and SpaceX would be “a good idea.” Both companies have formed special committees to discuss a potential transaction,

$BE Up 2,318% in 700 Days, Now Comes the Critical Test
$Bloom Energy Corp(BE)$ is up over 2,318% in the 700 days since its bull cycle started back in November 2024. Now it’s trading in an extremely important zone. Here’s what I’m seeing. 📈 The Cycle The cycle could be coming to an end. The monthly BX Trender is flipping from green to red. But there are two things to note. First, the monthly BX Trender hasn’t closed for October yet. We still have a couple of weeks left. Second, and more importantly, earnings are coming up, and that will obviously move the stock. A good report could flip the monthly BX back to green and keep the cycle going. So technically this is still bullish, just leaning more toward a potential end of the cycle. Nothing’s confirmed yet. Structure Structure matters more than the cycle
