Gold and silver bounced on Monday following Friday's shellacking, helped by a steep decline in crude oil futures that sent US Treasury yields lower across the curve. The continued rally in Treasuries now has benchmark futures on the cusp of a bullish breakout, an outcome that would normally go hand in hand with renewed weakness in the US dollar.

AeroVironment (AVAV - Free Report) closed the most recent trading day at $123.08, moving -2.4% from the previous trading session. The stock's change was less than the S&P 500's daily loss of 0.51%. Elsewhere, the Dow saw an upswing of 0.41%, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq depreciated by 1.07%.

Heading into today, shares of the maker of unmanned aircrafts had lost 10.45% over the past month, lagging the Aerospace sector's gain of 2.1% and the S&P 500's loss of 0.87%.

Tokenized equities have grown nearly sixfold this year, with most trading occurring outside regular US market hours as the NYSE develops blockchain trading infrastructure.

Tokenized equity trading has surged 55 times this year as demand for continuous access to financial markets accelerates, with traditional exchanges increasingly developing infrastructure to bring stocks and other assets onchain.

According to an October 16 report from DWF Labs, the value of tokenized equities reached $3.8 billion in early October, up 483% from $654 million at the beginning of January.

More recent RWA.xyz data shows approximately $3.58 billion in tokenized stocks as of November 2, up more than 10% over the past 30 days.

The market is dominated by a handful of issuers, with Binance bStocks, Ondo Finance and xStocks accounting for nearly 80% of the value tracked by RWA.xyz.

However, trading activity has expanded considerably faster than the market itself.

DWF Labs found that weekly spot trading volume on decentralized exchanges increased from $45.8 million in January to $2.54 billion in early October, representing a 55 times increase.

Weekly token transfers, which also include movements unrelated to trading, climbed from $420 million to $17.5 billion during the same period.

Most tokenized stock trading happens outside Wall Street hours
The expansion of tokenized equities has also highlighted growing demand for trading beyond traditional stock exchange hours.

According to October research from Bitquery, approximately 65% of decentralized exchange trading in tokenized stocks occurred outside regular US market hours between October 2 and October 31.

The analysis found that 18% of trading took place during weekends, when traditional US stock exchanges remain closed.

Separate Blockworks data showed that approximately 63% of tokenized equity trading on Solana occurred outside regular market hours, compared with nearly 60% on Base.

Solana has emerged as a major venue for these assets. According to a Blockworks report, tokenized equity trading on the network reached $7.1 billion during the third quarter, up 40% from the previous quarter.

September alone accounted for a record $4.4 billion.

Across all tracked blockchains, tokenized equity trading volume reached $49.7 billion during Q3, approximately nine times its second quarter level.

The expansion has also extended into decentralized finance, where tokenized equities can be used in lending markets and liquidity pools.

DWF Labs estimated that the value of tokenized equities deployed in DeFi reached $313 million in mid October, approximately 20 times the amount recorded at the beginning of January.

NYSE and ICE develop infrastructure for tokenized stocks and perpetual futures
Traditional financial institutions are also moving toward blockchain markets as demand for continuous trading increases.

In January, the New York Stock Exchange announced plans to develop a platform supporting tokenized stocks and exchange traded funds, with 24 hour trading, fractional shares and immediate settlement.

The proposed infrastructure would combine the NYSE’s existing matching engine with blockchain settlement systems and stablecoin funding.

The exchange intends to support both tokenized versions of traditionally issued securities and shares issued directly as digital securities, subject to regulatory approval.

More recently, NYSE parent company Intercontinental Exchange announced an agreement with Trade[XYZ] on October 29 to bring regulated perpetual futures markets to the US using Hyperliquid infrastructure.

The proposed platform would offer continuous exposure to equities, commodities, currencies and other financial assets through perpetual contracts, pending regulatory approval.

Unlike tokenized stocks, perpetual futures are derivatives that provide exposure to price movements without representing ownership of the underlying shares.

ICE said the new business would operate separately from its institutional futures markets, targeting retail traders seeking access to financial assets outside conventional trading sessions.

Despite the expansion, tokenized equities remain a small fraction of traditional financial markets.

DWF Labs estimated that the $3.8 billion market represented approximately 0.005% of the roughly $75 trillion US equity market.

Liquidity and regulatory oversight also remain obstacles, particularly for assets trading when their underlying stock exchanges are closed.

A separate Bitquery study found that tokenized stocks often failed to anticipate Monday opening prices during weekend trading, with prices adjusting more substantially after traditional futures markets reopened.

The findings illustrate the liquidity challenges facing continuous trading as exchanges and financial institutions work to expand blockchain based market infrastructure.

Core & Main (CNM - Free Report) closed at $45.15 in the latest trading session, marking a +2.03% move from the prior day. The stock's performance was ahead of the S&P 500's daily loss of 0.51%. Meanwhile, the Dow gained 0.41%, and the Nasdaq, a tech-heavy index, lost 1.07%.

Prior to today's trading, shares of the distributor of water and fire protection products had gained 7.01% outpaced the Industrial Products sector's loss of 3.86% and the S&P 500's loss of 0.87%.

For the full year, the Zacks Consensus Estimates are projecting earnings of $3.09 per share and revenue of $7.85 billion, which would represent changes of +4.04% and +2.7%, respectively, from the prior year.

It is also important to note the recent changes to analyst estimates for Core & Main. These latest adjustments often mirror the shifting dynamics of short-term business patterns. With this in mind, we can consider positive estimate revisions a sign of optimism about the business outlook.

Our research suggests that these changes in estimates have a direct relationship with upcoming stock price performance. To capitalize on this, we've crafted the Zacks Rank, a unique model that incorporates these estimate changes and offers a practical rating system.

The Zacks Rank system, ranging from #1 (Strong Buy) to #5 (Strong Sell), possesses a remarkable history of outdoing, externally audited, with #1 stocks returning an average annual gain of +25% since 1988. Within the past 30 days, our consensus EPS projection remained stagnant. Currently, Core & Main is carrying a Zacks Rank of #5 (Strong Sell).

With respect to valuation, Core & Main is currently being traded at a Forward P/E ratio of 14.31. Its industry sports an average Forward P/E of 19.08, so one might conclude that Core & Main is trading at a discount comparatively.

Also, we should mention that CNM has a PEG ratio of 1.8. The PEG ratio is akin to the commonly utilized P/E ratio, but this measure also incorporates the company's anticipated earnings growth rate. As of the close of trade yesterday, the Manufacturing - Tools & Related Products industry held an average PEG ratio of 1.53.

The Manufacturing - Tools & Related Products industry is part of the Industrial Products sector. This industry, currently bearing a Zacks Industry Rank of 103, finds itself in the top 42% echelons of all 250+ industries.

The Zacks Industry Rank assesses the strength of our separate industry groups by calculating the average Zacks Rank of the individual stocks contained within the groups. Our research shows that the top 50% rated industries outperform the bottom half by a factor of 2 to 1.

FLUENCE ENERGY, INC. CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT - COMPLAINT ALLEGATION SUMMARY:
The complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material facts about the company’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants misrepresented and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Fluence Energy’s ability to deliver its backlog and recognize the revenue underlying its fiscal 2026 guidance depended on new contract manufacturing facilities, including facilities that were not completed, not operational, and/or not capable of producing at the volumes the company’s guidance assumed; (2) the corrective measures Fluence Energy had implemented to address production problems at its contract manufacturers were not resolving those problems, which continued and extended to the company’s new facilities; and (3) as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ statements about the company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.

Why did Fluence Energy’s Stock Drop?
On February 4, 2026 and August 5, 2026, Fluence Energy reported disappointing quarterly financial results, including GAAP gross profit margin declines, an increase in net losses, and weaker than expected revenue. As a result, Fluence Energy’s stock price fell significantly and the company slashed its fiscal year 2026 revenue guidance and its adjusted EBITDA guidance.

Then, on September 16, 2026, Fluence Energy announced through a mid-quarter guidance update that the company was cutting its full year revenue guidance by approximately $600 million to $2.4 billion. Additionally, Fluence Energy further cut its full year adjusted EBITDA guidance from negative $10 million to negative $200 million, attributed to “delays in the ramp-up of our contract manufacturing facility.” On this news, Fluence Energy’s stock price fell $1.39 per share, or 15.36%, to close at $7.66 per share on September 17, 2026.

SBA Communications (SBAC - Free Report) came out with quarterly funds from operations (FFO) of $3.19 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $3.08 per share. This compares to FFO of $3.3 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.

This quarterly report represents an FFO surprise of +3.57%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this communications tower operator would post FFO of $2.96 per share when it actually produced FFO of $3.03, delivering a surprise of +2.36%.

Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus FFO estimates three times.

SBA Communications, which belongs to the Zacks REIT and Equity Trust - Other industry, posted revenues of $713.92 million for the quarter ended September 2026, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 1.81%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $732.33 million. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates two times over the last four quarters.

The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future FFO expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call.

SBA Communications shares have lost about 3.3% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 10.7%.

What's Next for SBA Communications?While SBA Communications has underperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock?

There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's FFO outlook. Not only does this include current consensus FFO expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.

Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of estimate revisions.

Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for SBA Communications was mixed. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to perform in line with the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.

One other stock from the same industry, Ambarella (AMBA - Free Report) , is yet to report results for the quarter ended October 2026.

Ethena (ENA) trades near $0.17, down more than 6% in 24 hours, as altcoins slide, Binance hack proceeds are sold and a token unlock nears.

Ethena's governance token $ENA fell to around $0.17 on Monday, down more than 6% over 24 hours, as a broad altcoin decline pushed $NEAR, $ZEC and $WLD lower by 5% or more. Bitcoin slipped about 1.2% over the same period. Over the past seven days, ENA has lost roughly 18%, compared with about 4% for Bitcoin and about 3% for $ETH.

Binance Hack Proceeds Add Selling PressureThe weakness follows the Binance security breach of October 29. Crypto.news reported that on-chain analytics firm Lookonchain found the attacker sold 217.5 million ENA for $33.93 million, swapping the tokens for Ether at an average price near $0.16. ENA was one of seven altcoins the attacker converted. According to Crypto Times, the seven tokens were swapped for a combined 70,480 ETH, worth about $158.25 million.

Binance has said it set aside more than $6.34 billion in company funds to compensate users, according to Bloomingbit. The same report said a wallet tied to Ethena deposited 128.6 million ENA, worth $24.33 million, to Binance, which raised the possibility of an over-the-counter deal to help replace stolen tokens. Crypto Times noted that neither Binance nor Ethena had confirmed the purpose of the transfer at the time of publication.

Token Unlock Adds Fresh Supply@ethena also has a scheduled token unlock this week. CoinDesk's weekly crypto calendar lists a November 5 unlock of 0.88% of ENA's circulating supply, worth $17.86 million. Unlock estimates differ between data providers, and token unlocks can add to selling pressure by increasing circulating supply.

Price pressure on ENA has been building for some time. DiarioBitcoin data showed the token down about 25.5% over 30 days as of November 2, trading below its short-term moving averages. Traders are likely to watch whether the unlock and any further Binance-related token flows add to supply in a market that is already under strain.

Allison Transmission (ALSN - Free Report) came out with quarterly earnings of $2.9 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2.47 per share. This compares to earnings of $1.63 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.

This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of +17.41%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this automatic transmission maker would post earnings of $2.6 per share when it actually produced earnings of $2.73, delivering a surprise of +5%.

Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates four times.

Allison Transmission, which belongs to the Zacks Automotive - Original Equipment industry, posted revenues of $1.53 billion for the quarter ended September 2026, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 4.52%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $693 million. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates four times over the last four quarters.

The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call.

Allison Transmission shares have added about 10.4% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 10.7%.

What's Next for Allison Transmission?While Allison Transmission has underperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock?

There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.

Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.

Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for Allison Transmission was unfavorable. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to underperform the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.

It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $2.61 on $1.48 billion in revenues for the coming quarter and $10.25 on $5.93 billion in revenues for the current fiscal year.

Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Automotive - Original Equipment is currently in the bottom 18% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.

Another stock from the same industry, Cooper-Standard (CPS - Free Report) , has yet to report results for the quarter ended September 2026. The results are expected to be released on November 4.

Cooper-Standard's revenues are expected to be $695 million, down 0.1% from the year-ago quarter.

AST SPACEMOBILE, INC. CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT - COMPLAINT ALLEGATION SUMMARY:
The complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements, as well as failed to disclose material facts about the company’s business, operations, and prospects. Specifically, Defendants failed to disclose to investors that: (1) AST’s increasing capital requirements were likely to increase the company’s debt load and share dilution with greater frequency and at greater scale than Defendants had signaled to investors; (2) accordingly, AST had overstated the sufficiency of the company’s capital and liquidity position to achieve its strategic and business goals; (3) AST likewise overstated the durability of its competitive position in the satellite D2C market; (4) even following the EchoStar Transaction, Defendants continued overstating AST’s competitive position in the satellite D2C market; (5) AST was experiencing slow user adoption in the U.S. and Japan; (6) the foregoing was likely to have a significant negative impact on AST’s business and financial prospects; and (7) as a result, Defendants’ public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.

Why did AST’s Stock Drop?
Between September 8, 2025 and July 15, 2026, a series of stock downgrades and company disclosures caused AST’s stock price to fall significantly. Specifically, on January 7, 2026, Scotiabank downgraded AST to sell, citing, among other things, significant competition from SpaceX's Starlink, slow customer adoption, and delays in launching AST's satellites. Then, on July 15, 2026, AST issued a press release "announc[ing] the pricing of $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 1.625% convertible senior notes due 2034". Following these disclosures, AST’s Class A common stock price fell $11.30 per share, or 17.04%, to close at $55.01 per share on July 16, 2026.

Why: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of securities of Hims & Hers Health, Inc. (NYSE: HIMS) between August 4, 2025 and July 29, 2026, both dates inclusive (the "Class Period"), of the important November 2, 2026 lead plaintiff deadline.

So what: If you purchased Hims securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.

What to do next: To join the Hims class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/cases/hims-hers-health-inc/join or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than November 2, 2026. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.

Why Rosen Law: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually handle securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered billions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

Details of the case: According to the lawsuit, throughout the Class Period, defendants made materially false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Hims shared consumers' health information with third-party advertising platforms; (2) Hims charges consumers for prescriptions almost immediately after they submit an intake form, despite telling consumers that they will be able to consult with a medical provider to find a treatment that is "right for them;" (3) the foregoing conduct subjected Hims to regulatory scrutiny; (4) as a result of the foregoing, Hims was reasonably likely to incur fees and penalties; and (5) as a result of the foregoing, defendants' positive statements about Hims' business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

To join the Hims class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/cases/hims-hers-health-inc/join or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action.

No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

Hyperliquid is witnessing sustained sell pressure across its spot and derivatives markets over the past weeks, although the market is gradually showing signs of a potential relief. 

While the market has remained weak since last month, the latest data from Coinglass shows that momentum is gradually being restored, but long traders are still getting wiped out from the Hyperliquid derivatives market.

Hyperliquid's long liquidation hits $3.99 million With the market already showing signs of a potential relief, it appears that bullish leveraged traders are still getting hit by HYPE's current mixed price action more than short traders.

HOT Stories

According to the data, a total of $4.49 million in HYPE positions were liquidated over the last 24 hours. Notably, long positions accounted for $3.99 million, which marks 88.9% of the total liquidations seen during the same period.

This means that short traders were barely affected, as further data showed that short liquidations only stood at $496,730, marking just 11.1% of the total liquidations.

As such, the fast-growing crypto asset has witnessed a liquidation imbalance of 703% over the last 24 hours, as long liquidations were substantially higher than short liquidations.

Apparently, this means that traders betting on HYPE's price surge have suffered nearly eight times the losses recorded by bearish traders.

HYPE sees hourly price reversalWhile the intense sell-off seen across the broader crypto market is gradually beginning to ease, Hyperliquid's hourly price chart has suddenly flipped into green territory.

However, HYPE has continued to show mixed price action, hovering around $86 as of the time of writing, following a 2.26% decline in its price over the last 24 hours.

Entropy listed an AAPL perp with up to 25x leverage on Hyperliquid's HIP-3 framework, priced by RedStone's oracle infrastructure

Apple stock now has another home on Hyperliquid. Entropy, a builder in the HIP-3 ecosystem, has listed an Apple (AAPL) perpetual futures market offering up to 25x leverage.

The timing was hard to miss. The market went live on November 2, 2026, the same day Apple was set to report earnings after the closing bell.

Pricing for the new market comes from RedStone, whose oracle infrastructure feeds real-world asset data into Entropy’s listings.

What Entropy actually launched A perpetual future, or perp, is a derivative that tracks an asset’s price with no expiry date. Think of it as a futures contract that never ends, kept tethered to the real price through periodic payments between long and short traders.

Entropy’s AAPL perp lets traders take positions with up to 25x leverage. That means a trader can control a position 25 times larger than the collateral they post.

Entropy did not get the ticker for free. The builder paid 575.23 HYPE for the AAPL ticker, a sum valued at approximately $51,000.

HYPE is Hyperliquid’s native token.

The oracle question and RedStone’s role Every onchain derivative has the same problem. The blockchain has no idea what Apple shares cost on Nasdaq unless someone tells it.

That messenger is called an oracle. It pulls price data from the outside world and delivers it to smart contracts, which then use it to settle trades and trigger liquidations.

RedStone supplies that service for Entropy’s markets through its proprietary infrastructure. The firm is known for delivering fast, liquidity-weighted price data for real-world assets.

Liquidity-weighted means the feed gives more importance to prices from deeper, more active markets. A thin quote from a sleepy venue counts for less than one from where real size trades.

RedStone has already handled meaningful flow on this front. The oracle provider has powered over $3.4 billion in volume within HIP-3 markets, including Entropy’s earlier launches.

Competition inside the same exchange Entropy is not the first to list Apple on Hyperliquid. A trade.xyz AAPL perp market has been running since early 2026.

That incumbent offers 20x maximum leverage. As of early November 2026, it carried around $75 million in open interest and roughly $9 million in 24-hour trading volume.

Entropy’s pitch, at least on paper, is the higher leverage ceiling: 25x versus 20x.

How HIP-3 makes this possible HIP-3 is a Hyperliquid framework that allows permissionless deployment of perpetual markets. Builders can launch their own markets without waiting for the core team to approve each listing.

Entropy has been one of the more prominent builders using this setup. In August 2026, it rolled out pre-IPO and equity perpetuals that included names like Anthropic and SanDisk.

Entropy arrived with serious backing. It raised $14 million in a round led by Ribbit Capital and secured an additional ~$40 million in HYPE staking before its August 2026 debut.

Ribbit Capital is a fintech-focused venture firm.
