Missed SpaceX before it went public?
Jeff Brown says a Musk-backed startup is next.

Jeff Brown has spent years as an angel investor, putting money into private companies long before Wall Street could buy them.

Now he is pointing to a young company Elon Musk has backed. He says it is growing faster than Tesla and SpaceX, and that Bloomberg reports it is moving toward "a blockbuster IPO."

You do not have to wait for the listing. He shows how to claim a pre-IPO stake for as little as $50.

He will send you the startup’s name.

SUNDAY SETUP

 

Cash is shut until Monday’s 9:30 AM ET open, and futures reopen at 6:00 PM ET tonight. Clocks fell back an hour overnight; the opening bell stays at 9:30 AM ET. Every price below is Friday’s close. Last week SPY lost 0.6% and QQQ lost 2.0%, while small caps in IWM gained 1.3%. The Nasdaq ended Friday at a three-month low, more than 8% off its Oct 6 closing high (Reuters).

Palantir, Apple and AMD report inside 24 hours, right after guidance sank Intel

Reuters · CNBC · StockTitan · Oct 29-30, 2026

Intel beat on the quarter and still fell 28.6% Friday to $65.76 after guiding fourth-quarter sales to $15 billion to $16 billion, against $17.1 billion expected. Alphabet lost 12.6% Thursday. ServiceNow and Reddit each lost about a third of their value on the week. All week, the next quarter set the price.

Who’s exposed: AI names that sold off into their reports. Palantir closed Friday at $184.11 after a 6.3% drop, and AMD fell 10.9% Friday to $504.80.

Next: Palantir and Apple report Monday after the close, with calls at 5:00 PM ET. AMD follows Tuesday after the close.

Wrong if: Palantir and AMD both guide above estimates and QQQ still closes Tuesday below Friday’s $690.49. Then the selling is about AI spending as a whole, and the reports are not the problem.
