The store focuses on fresh food and staples to complement online retail with offline scenarios.Competition in hard discount is heating up, and JD is expanding quickly on the back of its supply-chain edge. Offline stores could drive new user growth, but near-term store ramp and profitability need continued monitoring. **2)**$POP MART(09992.HK) POP MART shares have kept sliding, down over 13% in the past five sessions and hitting a new phase low. Investor Duan Yongping said on social media he may keep adding modestly but will cap holdings below 10% of shares outstanding, and will refrain from frequent comments on price swings, leaving the verdict to time.The core debate is the sustainability of its trendy-toy IP pipeline. It will be hard to quickly reverse near-term concerns over IP durability and soft consumer demand. **3)**$Amazon(AMZN.US) Bloomberg and others report Amazon plans to invest over €16bn in Germany in 2027, covering cloud and AI infra, logistics, LEO satellites, and streaming content. This scales compute in Europe and localizes operations to capture EU AI demand while hedging regulatory pressure.However, such heavy capex will lift capital spending and could cap near-term margin elasticity. **4)**$Apple(AAPL.US) Apple added a new US titanium supplier for the new iPhone Duo and is expanding US-based capacity for iPhone 18 Pro camera components. It continues to localize key components, aligning with US onshoring policies.But onshoring raises hardware production costs and squeezes device margins, while foldable iPhone capacity bottlenecks remain a key market focus. **5)** $Anthropic(ANT.US) Anthropic’s draft IPO filing shows H1 revenue of 16.3bn and a net loss of 80.7bn, with 72.0bn in accounting charges; total compute commitment could reach up to 750bn. The capex burden for AI compute is front and center, while AI-linked CDS volumes have surged.The market is on alert for debt risks among AI startups, and the stability of financing chains across the AI stack has become a core concern. **6)**$NVIDIA(NVDA.US) NVIDIA GTC Berlin 2026 runs Oct 20–22, with Jensen Huang’s keynote scheduled for Oct 21, 17:00–19:00 Beijing time. The market is looking for AI hardware updates and the industry roadmap.Keynote signals could directly sway global compute sentiment and serve as a key near-term read-through for semis. **7)**$Coreweave(CRWV.US) ARK Invest bought roughly $8.13mn of CoreWeave, adding contrarily amid worries over the company’s elevated default risk. ARK is betting on long-term AI compute demand and sees an overreaction in market fear.That said, CoreWeave’s credit risk remains high, making this a highly speculative and uncertain trade. **8)**$XPENG-W(09868.HK) XPeng’s HT Aero flying car X3-F has begun mass deliveries, with a UAE sheikh taking delivery; orders have topped 7,000 units. The G9L entered Europe, and the product lineup has been streamlined into the G and D series.Flying-car rollout validates low-altitude commercialization potential, while streamlining aims to cut costs and boost efficiency. Intl expansion is the key mid- to long-term driver. **9) Dolphin’s earnings and calls on watch** $SpaceX(SPCX.US) :《[SpaceX: from 'rocket maker' to 'landlord' — who funds Musk’s next trillion?](https://longbridge.cn/zh-CN/dolphin/post/44451710?channel=OWNN00030)》、《[SpaceX (Trans): SI revenue +$5bn QoQ, compute heading to 13GW](https://longbridge.cn/zh-CN/dolphin/post/44444860?channel=OWNN00030)》 $Netflix(NFLX.US) :《[Netflix: softer guide dents confidence — can 'new leadership + peak season' turn it around?](https://longbridge.cn/zh-CN/dolphin/post/44445457?channel=OWNN00030)》、《[Netflix (Trans): ads +80% but still behind target, US content needs acceleration](https://longbridge.cn/zh-CN/dolphin/post/44444943?channel=OWNN00030)》 ## 🐬 Top Gainers **A-shares:** Data processing & outsourcing; forest products.
