At $216.85 the stock trades on roughly 21.7 times forward earnings while guiding to 85% revenue growth. The interesting thing is what appeared in the accounts three months ago: in the January-to-April quarter, Nvidia's net income exceeded its operating income —… ## [Bybit Ties Up To $300,000 Referral Campaign To AI Stock…](https://financefeeds.com/bybit-ties-up-to-300000-referral-campaign-to-ai-stock-perpetuals/) _2026-08-21 · Rick Steves · FinanceFeeds_ Bybit has launched its Build Your AI Future City campaign , offering eligible users rewards linked to perpetual contracts tracking SanDisk, Nvidia, Marvell, Dell, Oracle and Adobe.

At $545.83 the shares trade on roughly 22 times annualised second-quarter earnings — cheaper than the S&P 500. The problem is not the multiple. It is that in the June quarter Meta turned $31.86bn of operating cash flow into $784m of free cash flow , and its own guidance says the second half will… ## [Mitrade Promotes Timur Konsky to EU CEO as Lots Traded Rise…](https://financefeeds.com/mitrade-promotes-timur-konsky-to-eu-ceo-as-lots-traded-rise-148/) _2026-08-21 · Rick Steves · FinanceFeeds_ Mitrade EU has promoted Timur Konsky from Chief Operating Officer to Chief Executive Officer as the CFD broker prepares to expand further across European retail markets, beginning with Germany. The appointment comes as Mitrade Group reported in its official announcement that total lots traded increased 148.4% during the first seven months of 2026 compared with the same period last year. The group… ## [Apex Group and OpenVC Build RWA Indices From Private Market…](https://financefeeds.com/apex-group-and-openvc-build-rwa-indices-from-private-market-data/) _2026-08-21 · Rick Steves · FinanceFeeds_ Apex Group and OpenVC are developing a suite of indices covering real-world asset funds and strategies, combining Apex Group’s private-market data with OpenVC’s index-construction methods.

The market read the 11 August report as a turnaround — a 17.5% gross margin against 9.9% three months earlier — and bid the stock up. But the same filing shows something the celebration skipped: Supermicro's full-year gross margin for fiscal 2026 was 10.8%, down from 11.1% in fiscal 2025. Revenue… ## [Rippling Moves Into Treasury Investing With Apex Money…](https://financefeeds.com/rippling-moves-into-treasury-investing-with-apex-money-market-sweeps/) _2026-08-21 · Rick Steves · FinanceFeeds_ Rippling is expanding beyond payroll and spend management into corporate treasury investing through a new collaboration with Apex Fintech Solutions .

That would be its best week since March 2024, according to Bloomberg , which put the intraday high at $75,740 before the latest leg higher. After six weeks pinned in a tight range, the move was violent, and it raises the question a Friday reader actually has: is this the start of… ## [That $2.75 Billion Short Squeeze Number Is Not…](https://financefeeds.com/that-2-75-billion-short-squeeze-number-is-not-bitcoins-it-is-the-whole-markets/) _2026-08-21 · Rick Steves · FinanceFeeds_ The $2.75 billion figure taken from CoinGlass liquidation data after the August 19 rally counted short positions across the crypto market, not Bitcoin alone. Bitcoin contributed about $1.6 billion to $1.7 billion, as the corrected FinanceFeeds report from August 20 now states. The distinction matters because a market-wide liquidation total and an asset-level total answer different questions. What… ## [Traders Have $2.6 Million on the September Fed Meeting, and…](https://financefeeds.com/traders-have-2-6-million-on-the-september-fed-meeting-and-they-are-buying-both-a-cut-and-a-hike/) _2026-08-21 · Rick Steves · FinanceFeeds_ Traders put $2.61 million through four of Polymarket’s September Federal Reserve contracts over the 24 hours to August 21, even as the prices attached to those trades pointed overwhelmingly to a hold. The unusual part of the Fed September rate decision market is not that traders agree on the most likely result. It is that substantial turnover is reaching both tails three weeks before the decision.… ## [Sync bookmarks across every browser (Sponsored)](https://crawlproof.com/a/NpW8k22YbdWH) _2026-08-21 · **Sponsored**_ Two-way sync across Chrome, Firefox and Safari; built-in ad and tracker blocker. ## [Two Lubbock Men Convicted in Ferrum Ponzi Fraud, Face Up to…](https://financefeeds.com/two-lubbock-men-convicted-in-ferrum-ponzi-fraud-face-up-to-70-years/) _2026-08-20 · Rick Steves · FinanceFeeds_ A federal jury convicted Ferrum Capital owners Joshua Allen and Michael Cox on all four counts on 18 August after a weeklong trial in San Antonio.

The company's August 19 results show that trading-related revenue rose 66% to $147.7 million, making customer activity, rather than cost reductions, the main driver of the quarter.

While this protects lenders, it also makes borrowing capital inefficient for institutions and businesses that may not have big amounts of crypto assets to lock up. On-chain private credit takes another approach. Instead of depending just on excess collateral, lenders can assess borrowers based on their… ## [Boston Woman Gets One Day in Prison for Role in…](https://financefeeds.com/boston-woman-gets-one-day-in-prison-for-role-in-multimillion-dollar-bank-fraud-ring/) _2026-08-19 · Rick Steves · FinanceFeeds_ Trinity Antonetty has been sentenced to time served, approximately one day in prison, after pleading guilty to using a business bank account to move fraudulently obtained cashier’s checks.

They did not. Applied reported record revenue of $9.12 billion for its fiscal third quarter ended 26 July 2026, up 25 percent year over year, with record operating income, record non-GAAP earnings per share of $3.50, and a fourth-quarter guide of $10.25 billion that was… ## [Broadcom AVGO stock prediction: $560 bull vs $265 bear](https://financefeeds.com/broadcom-avgo-stock-prediction-560-bull-265-bear/) _2026-08-19 · Tobi Opeyemi Amure · FinanceFeeds_ Broadcom did not fall 6% on 14 August because AMD took its Google business. That is the story the market settled on, and the timeline does not support it. The SemiAnalysis research note everyone cited as the cause was not reported until 17 August — three sessions after the drop — and on the day it actually landed, Broadcom closed down 0.14%. What moved AVGO on 14 August was a Bank of America… ## [Options Adds CIX Data Before Canada’s First New ATS in a…](https://financefeeds.com/options-adds-cix-data-before-canadas-first-new-ats-in-a-decade-goes-live-september-21/) _2026-08-19 · Rick Steves · FinanceFeeds_ Options Technology will add market data from all three CIX Trading venues to AtlasFeed, giving institutional clients normalized and native feeds for Canada’s newest alternative trading system before live trading begins on September 21.

Both sides agree it is. Michael Burry, who disclosed a short on NBIS on 6 August at roughly $212 and added to it on 12 August at $247, is not claiming that customers will stop buying GPU hours. He is claiming that the depreciation schedules underneath the reported profits are wrong.
