Sundar fights back! "Trump said he considered putting his name or "America" on one of the two oceans that flank the US: the Atlantic and the Pacific." "I spoke to a brilliant guy, Sundar. He heads all of Google," Trump said, referring to CEO Sundar Pichai. He also praised Google cofounder Sergey Brin, calling both men "totally brilliant guys," before joking that they were "still rattled from the Gulf." Trump recounted putting his idea directly to Pichai: "Sundar, I’m thinking of the Atlantic Ocean. Can you handle it?" "No, no, no. This time I’m not doing it," Trump quoted Pichai as replying. "Oceans are different, sir. They cover really a lot of countries. Please don't ask us to do that." "So I'll probably pass," Trump told the crowd. "Should I pass it?" He then answered his own question: "I think let's keep it the Atlantic Ocean." businessinsider.com/trump-go…

Meta's 2027 capex and upcoming equity raise is likely to be massive. MASSIVE: “Company’s management had orally conveyed to Special Committee Counsel and Moelis that management had previously presented three forecast cases to the Board during a regularly scheduled Board meeting in May, and that, in each case, these long-term forecasts showed the Company’s need to raise hundreds of billions of dollars over a period of several years beginning as early as fall 2026." sec.gov/ix?doc=/Archives/edg…

On further thought, if SpaceX can add this much capacity next year that's probably not good news for the AI compute businesses of major hyperscalers like Google, Amazon, and Microsoft. More competing supply for Anthropic and friends.
SpaceX call - Elon Musk: "fairly confident" they will bring incremental 10GW online in 2027 (13GW total). (That's likely all Nvidia. The range Elon gave last call was 5 GW to 10 GW for 2027) CHIPS CHIPS CHIPS

The iPhone Duo reviews have been so bad/mixed, Apple might not trade like an inverse ETF today
Iphone Duo is half baked. Read this review before ordering. The initial enthusiasm on the neat opening Duo animation has faded. Hard. It may all but disappear after the first wave of Apple fan early adopters. This is a VERY bad iPhone experience. Most people should probably just buy an iPad Mini and hotspot it.

It's been a lot of fun trying the Duo out for a week, but it feels like I've gotten to use an extraordinarily polished prototype — not a finished product that I'd want to buy and carry. daringfireball.net/2026/10/t…

If there only was a Substack that pursued providing accurate, true, and complete information and insights to investors and readers.

Media KPIs are all about getting attention, and the best way to do that is by leveraging loss aversion to create FUD. Rising stock prices don't fit their KPIs. That's the despicable part about financial media: they charge expensive subscription fees but fail to provide the corresponding service (true, accurate, and complete information), while still treating attention as their primary KPI.

Elice is now up 68% from its IPO day low, but I don't see an article about it on top of the Bloomberg homepage or the Financial Times. Weird.
The media's top of homepage overemphasis of a sub-$1 billion market cap unimportant Korean neocloud that NO ONE HAS EVER HEARD OF to stir up fear and panic for clicks is just another example of media's lack of judgment and context.

I get so much AI written spam for lame AI marketing services now that it's ridiculous. Having a public email address is going to get tougher going forward.

Duo! Duet! Too confusing! Also, posting this right before Meta (Muse) earnings is cold blooded.
We’re opening a research preview of Claude Duet, a new app where Claude works as a proactive agent. It comes to you with what needs your attention, completes tasks you ask of it, keeps working when you step away, and checks with you before it acts on your behalf.

What a bummer. Very sad. The studio leaves a great legacy. EA is "shutting down BioWare" "The next ‘Mass Effect’ will be canceled as part of the layoffs"
BREAKING: Electronic Arts is cutting 400 jobs and shutting down BioWare, the legendary development studio behind Dragon Age and Mass Effect. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

This is how conflated, sensationalized headlines spread across the media ecosystem and the internet, creating misleading impressions and disingenuous narratives. No one who shares these headlines understand that the figure is mainly an unimportant accounting charge, not a reflection of current business momentum. But legacy media doesn't care. They just love the clicks.

Yeah the reviews are not great so far. Lots of tradeoffs.

Google is significantly underperforming its mega cap and hyperscaler peers. It's almost as if no one outside of Google is choosing Argon as their daily driver and the next models from Anthropic and OpenAI will wallop it even further.

Back story. I was very negative on Tesla. I was VERY WRONG on Tesla.
First time ever Elon has ever replied to me. Peace in our time. 😂
