Pre-Market Briefing on Nov 10: AMD Rose 13.26% After Google Cloud Picked EPYC, and CPI and CoreWeave Arrive Today With Interest Costs in Focus
I. Today's Market: All Three Indexes Rebounded, and the Nasdaq Rose 2.74%
Unit: %, single-day change on November 9; all three readings are positive, so the zero line sits at the left edge and every bar runs right on one shared scale. The Nasdaq reads +2.74%, the S&P 500 +2.43% and the Dow +2.15%.
All three indexes rebounded, with the Nasdaq closing at 25,253, the S&P 500 at 7,556 and the Dow at 52,390. AI-related stocks recovered together, and the volatility index fell about 22%. By sector, utilities rose 3.65%, industrials 3.21% and technology 2.74%, while financials, down 0.05%, were the only sector to fall; sector averages cover Nasdaq-listed members only.
The two biggest sector gains came from utilities and industrials, not technology. Rotation leaned toward defensive and asset-heavy sectors, and financials were the only sector below zero. On a day every index rises, check first which sectors led, because in a broad rally, where the money lands defines the day.
II. Stock in Focus: Large Chip Stocks Split Five Up and One Down, and AMD Led
Unit: %, single-day change on November 9. These six large stocks were picked by hand from the semiconductor industry, not the whole industry; the set spans positive and negative, so a zero line is drawn and all six share one scale. AMD sits at one end on +13.26% and Nvidia at the other on −4.27%, 17.53 percentage points apart.
AMD led, and Nvidia was the only decliner in the set. Two averages have to be kept apart: these six averaged +7.72%, while the semiconductor industry averaged +4.65%, so the denominators differ; Applied Materials rose 11.37%, Lam Research 10.41%, KLA 9.31% and Micron 6.25%, while Nvidia's drop came from an independent board-level investigation, not from chip demand. AMD closed at $508.58 for a market value of $830.2B, on 50.86M shares, 2.09 times its average, with the price back at 73% of its 52-week range. On the news side, Google Cloud picked AMD's fifth-generation EPYC as the host chip for its new TPU 8tx platform, handling data preparation and hardware-based confidential computing, and EPYC's customers now exceed 10 hyperscalers and AI labs. ⚠ But neither the chip count nor the dollar amount was disclosed, so the order size is not yet visible. Alongside it, Western Digital rose 9.86%, 4.73 percentage points above the computer hardware industry average, since high-capacity hard drives and flash are companion purchases for AI data centers.
Five Dimensions: Peer Rank Full, and Volatility Control Weakest at 20
Unit: 0 to 100, 0 at the centre and 100 at the rim, all five axes on one scale. Peer rank reads 100, valuation heat 99, relative strength 93 and trend position 73, and the weakest is volatility control at 20.
This time relative strength was not capped. It is 50 plus five times the excess over the industry, and AMD beat the semiconductor industry by 8.61 percentage points, which works out to 93.05; the industry itself rose 4.65% that day, which took a bite out of the excess, so first place in the set did not reach 100. Trend position 73 puts the price in the upper part of its 52-week range, and volatility control 20 is the weakest axis. When reading relative strength, check first which way the industry moved, because on a day the whole industry rises, a stock has to rise even more to score high.
III. What to Watch Today: CPI and CoreWeave Earnings, and Where Interest Costs Land
- At 13:30｜U.S. October CPI The prior reading was September headline inflation of 3.7% year on year; jobless claims follow on Thursday and October PPI on Friday
- After the close at 21:00｜CoreWeave (CRWV) third-quarter earnings The call is at 22:00; company revenue guidance is $3.45B–$3.60B, about 153% to 164% year on year
- Before the open｜Sea (SE), Wix (WIX) and Hesai (HSAI) earnings Rigetti (RGTI) and Netlist (NLST) report after the close
- Thursday after the close｜Cisco (CSCO), Applied Materials (AMAT) and Cerebras (CBRS) earnings Nebius (NBIS) reports before the open that day
- Friday at 13:30｜October PPI There is no U.S. economic data on Wednesday
Unit: billions of dollars, quarterly revenue on the company's reported basis, with bars from zero on one shared scale. 25Q3 reads $1.365B, 25Q4 $1.572B, 26Q1 $2.078B and 26Q2 $2.575B.
- Growth holds in triple digits but no longer accelerates Year-on-year growth ran 133.7%, 110.4%, 111.6% and 112.5% across the four quarters, and quarter-on-quarter growth 15.2%, 32.2% and 23.9%; the revenue backlog of about $104B is future contract value that becomes quarterly revenue only when capacity is delivered; customers named in its second-quarter report include Databricks, Cognition and Runway ML
- Money goes out first, revenue follows Last quarter's capital expenditure was $6.422B, 2.5 times revenue, because in this business the money goes into racks and power first, and revenue is recognized only when capacity is delivered under contract; third-quarter capital spending guidance is $11.5B–$13.5B, and full-year guidance $35B–$39B
- ⚠ Interest is larger than operating income Third-quarter interest expense guidance is $860M–$940M against adjusted operating income guidance of only $200M–$260M, so the low end of interest is more than three times the top of operating income, which ties today's CPI to its results: inflation sets the rate path, and rates set the interest it pays every quarter
IV. Frequently Asked Questions
Q: AMD rose 13.26%. How much of that was its own news?
A: Subtract the industry's average move for the day. AMD rose 13.26% while the semiconductor industry averaged +4.65%, leaving 8.61 percentage points as its own, tied to Google Cloud picking EPYC; Nvidia, in the same industry, fell 4.27%, 8.92 percentage points below the industry average, pushed by an independent board-level investigation. The part the industry average cannot explain is the company's own story, and the larger the gap, the more the news was about that one company.
Q: CoreWeave has a backlog of about $104B. Why still watch quarterly revenue?
A: The backlog, about $104B as of June 30, is future contract value, and it becomes quarterly revenue only when capacity is actually delivered. Last quarter's revenue was $2.575B, up 112.5%, with growth holding in triple digits but no longer accelerating, and delivery requires racks and power first: last quarter's capital expenditure was 2.5 times revenue. When reading a backlog, check first how fast it turns into revenue, because a large contract total is not money in this quarter.
Q: Why is CPI tied to CoreWeave's results?
A: Its interest expense is larger than its operating income. Third-quarter interest expense guidance is $860M–$940M against adjusted operating income guidance of $200M–$260M; across October 30 and November 2 the stock fell about 17%, as the market worried about its debt load and funding costs. On November 9 it closed at $48.98, up 5.56%, still at about 8.6% of its 52-week range of $40.58 to $138.25. The stock rose that day, but the question the market has been pricing is the cost of its debt, not the size of its backlog. For an asset-heavy, highly indebted company, check first where interest lands, because the rate path directly changes what it pays every quarter.

Does the Binance Security Incident Put Your Ethereum Wallet at Risk? EIP-7702 and Wallet Delegation Explained
The Binance security incident on October 30, 2026 has pushed a relatively technical Ethereum feature into a much broader security discussion: EIP-7702 wallet delegation.
For ordinary Ethereum users, however, the most important question is not whether EIP-7702 appeared somewhere in the incident timeline. It is whether the same class of authorization risk could affect a personal wallet holding ETH, USDT, USDC or other Ethereum assets
2026/10/30
What Role Did EIP-7702 Authorizations Play in the Binance Hack?
That detail quickly pushed EIP-7702 into the center of the discussion. The Ethereum account-delegation mechanism allows a normal externally owned account, or EOA, to temporarily execute smart contract logic. In the Binance incident, blockchain researchers identified an EIP-7702 delegation shortly before assets were transferred from a Binance-linked hot wallet.
But there is an important distinction
