# Research run 2026-09-29T23:55 UTC ## What changed - RBA hiked to 4.60% with a tightening bias; US 10-year at 5.26%, highest since 2007; Fed October hike priced at 77%. - OpenAI shelved GPT-6.1 Astra on safety but shipped Sol, Dots agents and a $500 Pro tier; $30B raise talks at $1.4T. - Micron reports Thu 6:30am AEST: Street wants $51.2B revenue and a buyback. US PCE tonight 10:30pm AEST. - Mortgage rates hit 7.58%, highest since Nov 2023: loanDepot and Rocket at lows, Figure down 14% in four sessions. - Meta rebounded 3.3% and Marvell 4.5% Tuesday; Anthropic's leaked S-1 shows $4.6B 2025 revenue, $8.1B operating loss. - Watchlist: Vertiv replaces Toyota; Bloom up 10.8% on a Fremont expansion; Tesla Roadster demo slips to Oct 15. ## Market summary US stocks fell for a second day Tuesday but the selling slowed: S&P 500 -0.2% to 7,671, Nasdaq -0.1% to 26,798, after Monday's -0.8% and -0.9%. Semis bounced, with the SOX +1.3% Tuesday after -1.6% Monday. The 10-year Treasury closed near 5.26%, the highest since 2007, and CME FedWatch puts a 25bp hike at the Oct 27-28 FOMC at about 77%; consumer confidence fell to 81.9, the lowest since 2014, and JOLTS openings fell to 7.08m. Oil dropped as Middle East exports recovered: Brent -2.6% to $102.59, WTI -3.5% to $89.38, though Trump rejected Iran's seven-day Hormuz plan. The RBA hiked 25bp to 4.60%, unanimous, its fourth hike of 2026, and kept a tightening bias; AUD/USD slipped to about 0.699 and the ASX 200 rose 0.3% to 8,709. Asia Tuesday: Nikkei -0.6%, Hang Seng -0.5%, Shanghai +0.2%. Next 48h (AEST): US August PCE Wed 22:30 (core seen 3.2%), Micron FQ4 after the US close (Thu ~06:30, consensus $50.8B revenue), ISM manufacturing Fri 00:00, September payrolls Fri 22:30; mainland China is shut Oct 1-7 for Golden Week, Hong Kong Oct 1. ## Holdings - AMZN: hold - Up 0.2% Tuesday after a 1.4% drop Monday. AWS Bedrock added OpenAI's GPT-6 Sol/Luna and Claude Opus 5.5, but the market is still weighing ~$200B of 2026 capex; Prime Big Deal Days run Oct 6-7 and Q3 results land Oct 29. - AXOS: hold - Down 1.6% Tuesday with banks as the 10-year hit 5.26%. No company news beyond setting Q1 FY27 results for Oct 29; the first $1.9B Capital One IRA deposit tranche closed Sep 21, the $3.2B second tranche is still pending. - BABA: watch - Down 0.9% Tuesday and about 2.7% over three sessions; the CFO and general counsel both sold stock on Sep 29, and a securities class action deadline lands Oct 5. Qwen adoption is real but capex is pushing free cash flow negative, so wait for a cleaner setup. - ENPH: watch - Up 3.0% Tuesday after a 4.6% drop Monday, still down about 17% over 30 days and 37% over 90 days. Citi trimmed its target and kept Neutral, citing a challenging market; borrowing costs at multi-year highs weigh on residential solar, so watch until Q3 results Oct 27. - FIGR: hold - Flat Tuesday (-0.1%) after an 8.1% drop Monday and roughly 14% over four sessions, with no company news; the move tracks rate-sensitive lenders as 30-year mortgages hit 7.58%. Fundamentals (Q2 beat, Kiavi closed Sep 1) are unchanged, so hold rather than chase or cut. - GOOGL: add - Slipped 0.5% Tuesday (about 0.9% over the two sessions) after Google appealed two EU orders to open Android and share search data with AI rivals; regulatory noise, not a demand problem. Citi's Marvell note flags a $10B-plus custom-silicon program with Google for fiscal 2029, and Gemini 4 is in post-training, so the AI stack keeps compounding. - LDI: trim - Down 0.6% Tuesday after a 9.0% drop Monday, about 27% down on the month and sitting near its all-time low. With 30-year mortgages at 7.58% and the NYSE sub-$1 compliance clock running since Aug 21, refinance volume relief is nowhere in sight; keep trimming. - META: hold - Rebounded 3.3% Tuesday after Monday's 4.8% profit-taking drop, on Monness Crespi lifting its target to $830 for the Muse agent and the new Meta Enterprise Platform under ex-MongoDB CEO CJ Desai. Still up roughly 30% in September; let it settle before adding. - MRVL: hold - Up 4.5% Tuesday (reversing Monday's 3.8% drop) after Citi reiterated Buy with a $275 target and modelled ~$12B fiscal 2027 and ~$18B fiscal 2028 revenue on the Google custom-chip deal; investor day is Oct 6. Up about 210% this year, so no chasing. - MU: hold - Rose 1.1% Tuesday ahead of Wednesday's fiscal Q4 print; consensus is about $51.2B revenue and $31.6 adjusted EPS against guidance of $50B plus or minus $1B and an ~86% gross margin. The fiscal 2027 outlook, HBM4 ramp and any post-December buyback will move the stock more than the beat itself. - NFLX: hold - Up 1.6% Tuesday after Deutsche Bank upgraded to Buy with a $95 target, but the stock is still down about 13% in September and 26% year to date after HSBC and Wells Fargo downgrades on engagement. Q3 results Oct 20 are the next test; hold. - NVDA: hold - Gave back 0.7% Tuesday after Monday's 1.7% pop on the $150B buyback add; the FT says Nvidia is now courting insurers to underwrite neocloud chip loans, which broadens demand but also shows how much of the build-out is financed. Nothing to change at 20-25% up on the year. - OPENAI: hold - Bloomberg/TechCrunch (Sep 29) report early talks to raise $30B+ at a $1.4T valuation, which would be ~8.9x the Nov 2024 $157B basis, but nothing is closed so the mark stays at 5.43x (March $852B round). Same day OpenAI shelved GPT-6.1 Astra on safety, kept its frontier training pause, shipped GPT-6.1 Sol, Dots and a $500 Pro tier at DevDay, and Altman skipped Australia's Oct 1 Senate hearing. - RKT: watch - Up 0.4% Tuesday after a 4.4% drop Monday to a 52-week low, with JPMorgan and Wells Fargo cutting targets. Mortgage rates at 7.58% (highest since Nov 2023) and the 10-year at 5.26% (highest since 2007) keep origination volume capped; stay on watch. - STRIPE: hold - No new tender, round or secondary since the Feb 2026 $159B tender; newsroom has nothing since the Sep 8 Meta Muse/Link item. OpenAI's DevDay push on plugin extensions and Sign in with ChatGPT builds on Stripe-powered Instant Checkout, a mild positive for agentic-commerce volume. Mark stays at 2.27x. - TSM: add - Up 0.9% Tuesday and 1.4% over the two sessions on reports 2nm output will reach ~120,000 wafers a month by year-end, above the earlier 90,000-100,000 plan, after Apple, Nvidia, AMD and Qualcomm lifted orders 10-20%. The whole AI chain, including Wednesday's Micron print, still routes through TSMC. ## Watchlist changes - removed 7203:JP - Thesis broken for a growth list. August global sales fell 6.4% and production 5.9%, the second straight monthly decline; China -22.8% (seventh month down), the US -4.4% and the Middle East -37.5%, with Toyota itself citing weaker hybrid demand. The 'RAV4 hybrid demand exceeds supply' story does not show up in the numbers, and the stock fell 1.9% Tuesday to JPY 2,881.50. Cheap, but not a 30% grower; replaced by Vertiv. - added VRT:US (accumulate, medium conviction) ## Watchlist - ALAB:US Astera Labs - accumulate (medium) - Connectivity silicon (retimers, Scorpio switches) inside AI racks; Q2 revenue $392M, +104% YoY.

Closed $98.62 Tuesday (-0.3%), down 9% since Sep 14 on no company news.

Track it, don't chase it. ## Bellwether changes - h100_rental: $2.70/hr index (+3.8% 7d) vs $2.66 Sep 15; H200 $3.33 (+1.8%); RunPod H100 SXM $3.49/$2.69, Lambda $3.99-4.29 unchanged/bullish -> $2.73/hr index (+4.6% 7d) vs $2.70 Sep 28;

AI capex remains the one engine that is not slowing: Micron is expected to report ~$50.8bn quarterly revenue Wednesday, and the RBA itself named 'AI-related demand' as a driver of technology-goods inflation; the SOX has swung 1-2% a day on yields rather than on demand news. Energy is easing at the margin - Middle East crude exports are back to roughly 16-17.5m bpd (about 98% of pre-war per JPMorgan), Saudi's East-West pipeline is at ~3.5m bpd and the DOE has offered up to 40m barrels from the SPR - but Hormuz flows are still only ~77% of pre-war, a ship was hit transiting the strait Tuesday, Qatar has extended its LNG force majeure through November, and Trump has rejected Iran's seven-day reopening plan, so $90-100+ crude and elevated diesel remain the base case for machinery and energy names. On China, H200 sales are legal with a 25% import tariff but Beijing is steering buyers to domestic silicon and Congress is moving to close the Aivres/cloud-access loophole, so the China contribution to Nvidia/AMD stays near zero; mainland liquidity thins from Oct 1 with Golden Week. A US shutdown is off the table until Dec 11. ## Watchlist Removed Toyota (7203.JP): August global sales -6.4%, production -5.9%, China -22.8%; not a growth name.
