EPAM (EPAM) unveiled a new $1 billion share repurchase program, a direct lever to lift shareholder returns amid a mixed tech hiring backdrop. Nasdaq (NDAQ) reported quarterly results that surpassed $1 billion in solutions revenue and pushed ARR above $3 billion, highlighting the resilience of recurring‑fee exchange and data businesses.

Meta (META) announced a joint venture with funds managed by Blue Owl Capital to develop Hyperion Data Center, a capital‑intensive push that can accelerate capacity for generative AI workloads while sharing financing risk with private capital.

Semiconductors & hardware results

Texas Instruments (TXN) reported third‑quarter 2025 results and reiterated shareholder returns, a read‑through for analog demand resilience and cash‑flow driven buybacks in the chip sector.

Keysight (KEYS) said it helped SK hynix achieve a top‑tier OCP S.A.F.E. evaluation for an SSD solution, a validation that can accelerate test‑and‑measurement adoption across storage supply chains.

Major bank and financial results

Capital One (COF) reported third‑quarter 2025 net income of $3.2 billion, or $4.83 per share, reinforcing credit‑cycle positioning and capital return capacity for card and consumer‑bank names.

Chubb (CB) posted strong insurance results with net income per share of $6.99, up 22.6%, record core operating EPS and a strong P&C combined ratio of 81.8%. That performance matters for insurers and reinsurance peers monitoring underwriting leverage and reserve trends.

Western Alliance Bancorporation (WAL) reported third‑quarter 2025 financial results, offering another data point on regional‑bank balance sheets, credit quality and deposit dynamics after a volatile period for the sector.

Smaller regional bank reports arrived today: Northpointe Bancshares (NPB) and SmartFinancial (SMBK) posted third‑quarter results, useful for monitoring regional credit trends and mortgage exposure across community‑bank portfolios.

Other financial results to note: PennyMac Financial Services (PFSI) and KKR Real Estate Finance Trust (KREF) posted quarterly updates, useful for mortgage‑finance and commercial real‑estate credit watchers.

Earnings snapshots that move sectors

  • Intuitive (ISRG) — third‑quarter earnings, a barometer for robotic surgery adoption and recurring instrument revenue.
  • Omnicom (OMC) — Q3 results, informing ad‑spend trends.

  • Monarch Casino & Resort (MCRI) — all‑time record quarter, signaling resilient discretionary spending in certain regions.
  • Vicor (VICR) — Q3 read on power‑module demand for data centers and industrials.

Mergers, acquisitions and strategic deals

Shift4 (FOUR) agreed to acquire Worldline’s North American subsidiaries, a sizable consolidation in payments that expands merchant reach and recurring‑processing revenue for acquirers.

DraftKings (DKNG) acquired Railbird to advance prediction‑market capabilities — a strategic tuck‑in that broadens engagement tools and betting product innovation.

GE Vernova (GEV) will fully acquire the Prolec GE joint venture, consolidating control over power‑transformer assets and streamlining electrification supply chains — notable for energy‑equipment investors.

Hologic (HOLX) remains on track for a Blackstone/TPG take‑private at up to $79 a share, a deal that can spur additional healthcare M&A activity.

Capital markets & credit moves

Albertsons (ACI) priced a senior notes offering, a financing that refines the grocer’s capital structure ahead of integration and growth investments.

AST SpaceMobile (ASTS) unveiled convertible‑note and repurchase plans earlier in the day, moves that reshape dilution and runway for its satellite connectivity buildout.

Energy & materials

Matador Resources (MTDR) reported Q3 results, raised full‑year guidance and issued a 2026 outlook, signaling confidence in production and pricing that matters for E&P peers.

EQT (EQT) released third‑quarter results, another data point on natural‑gas volumes, capex and dividend outlooks across the sector.

Perpetua Resources (PPTA) broke ground on the Stibnite Gold Project, a milestone for long‑lead mining development that may influence regional permitting timelines and capital allocation among junior‑to‑mid cap miners.

Industrials, waste and infrastructure

Waste Connections (WCN) reported third‑quarter 2025 results, offering visibility into pricing power and stable cash flows that attract defensive investors.

Granite (GVA) started rehabilitation on the historic Lake Street bascule bridge, a contract win with local infrastructure implications and steady revenue for civil‑construction peers.

Healthcare & biotech — trials, studies and product expansion

Terns Pharmaceuticals (TERN) reported topline Phase 2 data for an oral GLP‑1 agonist in obesity — an early signal that could spur partnerships or pipeline re‑rating if sustained.

Dynavax (DVAX) presented positive shingles vaccine data and launched Part 2 of the trial, reducing short‑term binary risk for investors focused on vaccine franchises.

Alector (ALEC) announced topline Phase 3 results in FTD‑GRN — a high‑impact neurology read for drug developers and biotech valuations.

Consumer, retail and entertainment

Beyond Meat (BYND) expanded distribution at Walmart, a direct boost to reach and sales cadence. Netflix (NFLX) continues to monetize content via toy deals, reinforcing merchandising as an incremental revenue stream for streaming companies.

Albertsons’ note sale also matters for grocery M&A and private‑label investments that can affect suppliers and CPG partners.

Smaller caps, restructurings and select notices

What to watch next

Insurance underwriting and reserve trends after Chubb’s strong quarter. Payments consolidation following Shift4’s deal and DraftKings’ Railbird acquisition. Monitor energy capex and production guidance from Matador, EQT and upcoming Suncor results. Finally, keep an eye on regional credit trends after reports from Northpointe and SmartFinancial, and on capital markets activity such as Albertsons’ notes for implications on financing costs and M&A runway.
