SpaceX Exceeds Forecasts in First Post-IPO Report and Announces Partnership with Nvidia

SpaceX, in its first earnings report following its IPO, announced financial results for Q2 2026 that exceeded analyst forecasts. Despite reporting revenue of $7.8B (vs. $6.81B expected) and adjusted EBITDA of $3.5B (vs. $2B expected), the company's shares fell due to a sharp increase in capital expenditures for AI infrastructure development. Capex for the AI segment surged to $15.8B, contributing to total quarterly capex of $18.37B. Simultaneously, CEO Elon Musk announced a strategic partnership with Nvidia, naming the chipmaker the exclusive supplier of AI processors for SpaceX. The partnership will support the Starmind AI-1 project, aiming to deploy data-center-level computing power in space using Nvidia's Rubin GPU and Vera CPU architectures. Musk stated the company aims to exceed 2 GW of computing capacity by year-end and nearly 10 GW by the end of 2027. The Starlink segment showed strong performance, exceeding 12 million subscribers and generating $2.6B in adjusted EBITDA. However, investors remain cautious about the massive AI investments and the upcoming lock-up period expiration on August 6, which could release hundreds of millions of insider shares to the market. SpaceX also continues to prepare for the next Starship test flight, which may attempt to catch the spacecraft's upper stage using the Mechazilla system.

Galaxy Digital and Terawulf Rely on AI Data Center Business Development to Narrow Losses in Q2

Galaxy Digital and TeraWulf reported divergent Q2 2026 results, heavily influenced by their emerging AI data center businesses. Galaxy Digital posted an $85 million net loss, causing its stock to drop nearly 7% premarket. However, its data center segment showed strength, contributing $20 million in adjusted gross profit. The company noted progress at its Helios site in Texas, expecting $80 million in quarterly lease payments starting in Q3 from its CoreWeave agreement. In contrast, TeraWulf reported a profit, with its stock rising 1.64% premarket. Its AI high-performance computing segment generated $31.9 million, accounting for roughly 71% of its total $44.8 million quarterly revenue. The company also reported $3 billion in cash and projected improved performance for Q3 following the activation of new revenue-generating capacity. Both companies are aggressively expanding their power portfolios and project pipelines, with deals like TeraWulf's estimated $19 billion lease with Anthropic and Galaxy's acquisition of development sites and a $3.5 billion bond issuance. The reports highlight electricity access as a critical factor for AI infrastructure growth, with data center power consumption expected to nearly double by 2030.

Circle Stock Falls Following Mixed Earnings Results as Revenue Misses Expectations

Circle Internet Group's (CRCL) stock fell nearly 4% after its Q2 earnings report, as revenue missed expectations despite beating profit forecasts. Demand for stablecoins like USDC grew amidst Middle East volatility, leading traders to favor dollar-pegged assets. The company reported total revenue and reserve yield of $701 million, up 7% YoY, shifting from a loss to $48 million in operating income. Circulating USDC grew 19% to $73.3 billion, with network transaction volume soaring 151% to $14.8 trillion. However, a drop in reserve yields limited income growth. Revenue from subscriptions and services jumped 41% to $34 million. Adjusted EBITDA margin declined, while operating expenses fell 56% due to a one-time IPO compensation cost exclusion last year. Adjusted expenses still rose 23% due to increased investments in R&D, AI, and new infrastructure. Notably, USDC held on Circle's platform more than doubled, and the number of active wallets with over $10 in USDC grew 24% to 7 million. Institutional traffic on the Circle Payments Network also surged. Looking ahead, Circle plans to open its Arc blockchain for public access on September 16, with over 100 companies already testing it. Major validators include BlackRock, Visa, and Mastercard. Projects with partners like BlackRock and DTCC focus on tokenized securities and asset custody. Circle raised its 2026 revenue forecast for other income and maintained its long-term growth target for USDC turnover at 40% annually.

Robinhood's Bigger Basket

"Robinhood's Bigger Basket" A few weeks ago, the author described Robinhood as a financial supermarket, bundling services from stocks to crypto. After watching the Q2 2026 earnings call, this view was seen as an understatement. The real power is not just attracting new customers, but making existing users engage more deeply. Key performance highlights: * Revenue surpassed $5B annualized, faster than legacy brokers like Charles Schwab. * Paying users grew 7% YoY to 28.4M, but Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) surged 24% to $187. * User activity intensified: per-user stock notional volume rose 56% and options contracts rose 43%, while the number of users trading these assets grew much slower (13% and 3% respectively). The Robinhood Gold subscription is a critical engine. Nearly half of new users sign up for Gold, which then acts as a gateway. Gold users hold 4.2x more assets and are 3.1x more likely to use retirement products than regular users. This creates a powerful cross-sell flywheel where using one product (e.g., prediction markets) increases adoption of others (e.g., IRAs). The future catalysts are Robinhood Chain and the upcoming Robinhood Social feed. * **Robinhood Chain** integrates services (tokenized stocks, lending, perpetuals) into a single, composable platform, reducing friction for cross-product usage. * **Robinhood Social** will internalize the trading idea generation process. Verified portfolios within the app could build trust and move the entire "idea-to-execution" loop inside Robinhood. Together, these act as neutral layers that drive engagement and value accumulation across Robinhood's ecosystem, similar to how Costco's store layout drives membership sales. Despite cyclical concerns in areas like crypto trading, Robinhood's diversified portfolio of 13 business lines each with over $100M in Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) creates stability. Different product cycles offset each other within a single user's account. The company's unique advantage is transforming a single customer relationship into a compounding, self-diversifying revenue node spanning traditional and crypto finance, amplified by its native blockchain.

Circle's Q2 Earnings Report is Out, Does It Answer Wall Street's Bull-Bear Split?

Circle released its Q2 2026 financial results. Total revenue and reserve income reached $7.01B, slightly below expectations but reversing a previous declining trend. Adjusted EBITDA was $143M, and net income from continuing operations was $48M. Key financial metrics showed mixed signals. USDC's average circulation grew to $76.5B, but the quarter-end circulation shrank to $73.3B, and its market share among dollar stablecoins slightly declined. Reserve income remained the primary revenue driver at $6.68B. Other revenue was $34M, down sequentially, but the full-year guidance for this segment was nearly doubled to $3.1-3.3B, mainly due to the inclusion of ARC token pre-sale revenue. The core RLDC Margin held strong at 41%. Operationally, the Arc network mainnet is scheduled for launch on September 16th, with major validators like BlackRock and Visa. The Circle Payments Network (CPN) showed significant growth in transaction volume. The company also secured key regulatory approvals, including a federal trust charter from the OCC. The report highlighted Wall Street's ongoing valuation debate. Morgan Stanley's downgrade reflects concerns about USDC growth and over-reliance on interest income. TD Cowen's bullish view finds support in Circle's expanding infrastructure platform, including Arc and CPN. The earnings confirm Circle's strategic pivot towards building a broader digital finance platform, but the success of this transition in generating sustainable non-interest revenue remains to be seen in future quarters.

Circle's Q2 Earnings Report Released, Has the Wall Street Bull-Bear Divide Been Resolved?

Circle's Q2 2026 earnings report presents a mixed picture. While total revenue of $701 million slightly missed expectations, it reversed a recent declining trend. A key concern is USDC's circulation, which grew on average but fell 4.8% quarter-over-quarter by the period's end, contributing to a slight market share loss. Revenue remains heavily reliant on USDC reserve income. Notably, the company significantly raised its full-year "Other Revenue" guidance to $310-330 million, largely due to the one-time recognition of ARC token presale revenue. Its core profitability metric, RLDC Margin, held steady at 41%. Strategically, Circle is advancing its platform vision. The Arc network mainnet launch is set for September with major institutional validators like BlackRock and Visa. Its payment network (CPN) transaction volume is growing rapidly, and it secured key federal and state trust bank charters in the U.S. The report reflects the ongoing Wall Street debate: whether Circle's value lies primarily in its USDC stablecoin business or its broader digital infrastructure ambitions. Evidence exists for both views, leaving the long-term validation of its platform strategy to future quarters.

Circle Q2 revenue falls short of Wall Street estimates

Circle reported second-quarter fiscal 2026 revenue and reserve income of $701 million, a 7% year-over-year increase, but slightly missed Wall Street estimates averaging $713.32 million. Net income from continuing operations was $48 million. The company noted a 5% rise in reserve income, driven by a 25% increase in average USDC circulation. Despite the earnings miss, shares rose 5.7% in pre-market trading. Circle announced the founding validators for its upcoming Arc blockchain, set to launch on September 16, including major firms like BlackRock, Visa, and Mastercard. Management raised its full-year guidance for other revenue, which includes Arc token presale revenue, to $310-$330 million from $150-$170 million. The results come amid a broader stablecoin market contraction, with total supply falling to $153 billion. Circle's USDC, with a $72 billion circulating supply, remains the second-largest stablecoin. According to a Talos spokesperson, USDC facilitated 72% of the $15.6 trillion in adjusted on-chain transfer volume in the quarter.

Q2营收暴涨92%，依旧跌破IPO价，SpaceX该买还是等？

SpaceX's Q2 2026 earnings report surpassed expectations, with revenue surging 92% year-over-year to $7.814 billion. Starlink remained the largest contributor, while the AI segment saw explosive growth of 247%. However, the company still posted a net loss of $541 million. Despite the strong report, the stock price reversed gains after hours, falling below its IPO price. The market's negative reaction is attributed to two main factors. First, there is growing investor concern over the massive capital expenditures (CapEx) required for AI infrastructure. SpaceX's total Q2 CapEx was $18.369 billion, with $15.828 billion (over 86%) dedicated to AI, far exceeding the segment's revenue. While management argues the investment has a short payback period and projects immense future revenue, this spending pattern mirrors a broader market anxiety about AI profitability timelines. Second, a significant overhang comes from the imminent lock-up expiration on August 6th, which will release approximately 910 million shares into the market—far exceeding the current public float of 640 million shares. This potential selling pressure has created technical support levels near $100, with analysts warning of possible further downside if the market hasn't fully priced in this risk. The article concludes that while SpaceX's core businesses (rockets and Starlink) justify its current valuation, the added AI potential makes it a discounted play long-term. However, given the near-term pressures from CapEx concerns and the lock-up expiry, investors may be advised to wait for the post-expiration period before considering a purchase.

AMD's Latest Earnings Report: Soaring Performance, Yet Entering a 'Period of Growth Pressure'

On August 4th (US time), AMD released its Q2 2026 financial results. Driven by a 107% surge in Data Center revenue, the company achieved record quarterly revenue of $11.54 billion, a 50% year-over-year (YoY) increase. GAAP net income soared to $2.30 billion, up 163% YoY. However, the stock price declined in after-hours trading. Data Center was the standout segment, with revenue reaching $6.72 billion, more than doubling YoY due to strong demand for EPYC server CPUs and Instinct AI accelerators. Client revenue grew 23% to $3.10 billion, while Gaming revenue fell 31% to $779 million. Despite the robust performance, AMD entered a phase where market expectations are heightened. While Q3 revenue guidance of approximately $13.0 billion surpassed consensus estimates, it fell short of some optimistic projections, contributing to investor caution. Concerns are rising over the sustainability of growth amid high capital expenditures, which nearly tripled estimates to $808 million in Q2, pressuring free cash flow. Supply chain constraints, particularly for advanced packaging, also pose challenges for scaling AI system deliveries like the new Helios platform. The market is now focused on when these significant investments will translate into sustained profitability and cash flow.

Wall Street Morning News: S&P and Dow Hit New Highs, Philadelphia Semiconductor Index and Chip Stocks Rise for 4th Straight Day, SanDisk and Intel Surge Over 10%, Micron's Market Cap Returns to $1 Trillion

U.S. stocks surged to record highs driven by strong earnings and easing Middle East tensions. The Dow Jones and S&P 500 both hit closing records, with the Nasdaq jumping 2.59%. The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index soared 6.55%, marking four straight days of gains, fueled by a broad AI rally spanning chips, software, and infrastructure. SanDisk and Intel surged over 10%, while Micron's market cap returned to the $1 trillion level. Geopolitical optimism weighed on oil, with WTI crude falling over 5%. Reports indicated the U.S., Iran, and Oman are nearing a temporary deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, alleviating supply disruption fears and lowering September Fed rate hike probabilities. Key stock movers included Palantir, up 29.45% on explosive revenue growth; Caterpillar, hitting a record high on raised guidance linked to data center demand; and AMD, rising 7% despite a post-earnings dip. Nvidia gained 2.56% after announcing new open-source models and securing an exclusive AI partnership with SpaceX. However, Oracle faces heightened credit risk due to heavy AI-related borrowing. Markets now focus on upcoming earnings from Uber and Eli Lilly, and a major SpaceX share lockup expiry on August 6th.
