Microsoft says the laptop runs some local AI tasks faster than a comparable MacBook Pro M5 and will begin shipping soon. Microsoft unveiled pricing and availability for its Nvidia-powered Surface Laptop Ultra on Wednesday, with a starting price of $2,599, Bloomberg reported. At an event in San Francisco, executives said the laptop responds to locally run AI prompts twice as fast as a comparable MacBook Pro M5 and generates video six times faster. Those are Microsoft’s performance claims. Advertisement The device will ship soon and costs about $400 less than an entry-level 16-inch MacBook Pro, according to Bloomberg.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang joined Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella to discuss the processor. Microsoft executives argued that local computing can reduce developers’ cloud spending and improve security, and highlighted Windows tools for controlling AI agents. Nadella said AI tools would increasingly combine local hardware with cloud services. Microsoft previously promoted AI PCs with Qualcomm in 2024, but privacy concerns complicated that launch. Gartner said earlier this year that rising memory prices would likely delay AI PCs becoming a majority of shipments until 2028.

Saudi-led forces have announced territorial gains against the Houthi rebels in Yemen, specifically near the strategic port city of Mokha. The coalition, which supports Yemen’s internationally recognized government, reports recapturing positions around Mokha and the Bab el-Mandeb Strait. These claims follow recent Houthi advances in the region, although the Houthis dispute the loss of territory, and Bloomberg notes that the reports have not been independently verified. This development suggests a potential shift in momentum amid ongoing conflict, although it does not confirm a decisive victory for Saudi-backed forces. Key Takeaways The Saudi-led coalition’s reported gains suggest a potential setback for Houthi forces in the region. Markets appear to view these developments as decreasing the likelihood that Houthi forces will enter Aden by October 31, 2026. The October 31 market odds for a Houthi entry into Aden have decreased from 12% to 10.5%, reflecting changing perceptions of Houthi momentum. What to Watch Observers should monitor further military developments and any independent verification of territorial changes around Mokha. The potential for additional Saudi-led offensives or Houthi counterattacks could influence future market pricing. Additionally, diplomatic efforts or ceasefire talks may alter the trajectory of conflict in the region. The next few weeks will be critical as both sides seek to solidify their competitive positions ahead of the October 31 deadline.

India’s foreign exchange reserves ​fell for a fourth ‌consecutive week to $734.6 billion, according ​to a ⁠footnote to Reserve Bank of India Governor Sanjay Malhotra’s ‌statement. The reserves have dropped from ‌their recent peak ‌of $785.71 billion ⁠on September ⁠4, a decline of about $50 billion in less than ​a month. The ‌drawdown reflects the RBI’s dollar sales in the spot market to ‌smooth the rupee’s ​decline, alongside sell/buy FX swaps aimed at ⁠absorbing surplus liquidity. Despite the central bank’s support, ‌the rupee has continued to weaken, pressured by elevated oil prices, rising US Treasury yields and ‌increased foreign equity outflows. The ​decline accelerated on Wednesday, with the ⁠currency falling nearly 0.5 per cent to ⁠96.8450 per dollar, within sight of ‌its all-time low of 96.96. Published on October 7, 2026

The chipmaker will keep working on the Texas mega-project even after Musk revealed early talks with TSMC Intel is not walking away from Elon Musk’s biggest hardware bet. The chipmaker will keep working with Musk on Terafab, his large-scale chipmaking project, according to Bloomberg. Earlier in October, Musk revealed that he had held discussions with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company. That left investors wondering whether Intel’s seat at the table was about to get crowded. What Terafab is trying to build Terafab is Musk’s attempt to manufacture ultra-high-performance chips for artificial intelligence and robotics. Three Musk companies sit behind it: Tesla, SpaceX and xAI. The planned Texas facility targets a compute capacity of 1 terawatt annually. The main site sits in Grimes County, Texas. Its initial planned investment exceeds $16.8 billion, with total spending potentially reaching up to $119 billion across multiple phases. Intel joined the effort on April 7, 2026. It was the first named foundry partner, announced alongside SpaceX, xAI and Tesla. Advertisement Tesla added a technical detail later that month. During its Q1 2026 earnings call in late April, the company indicated it aims to use Intel’s 14A manufacturing process for Terafab. Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan met Musk face to face before the April announcement and described the engagement as “highly strategic.” AI, tech, and the markets they move—in one daily briefing. Daily. Free.

Enter TSMC Until October 3, 2026, Intel was the only publicly named chip manufacturing partner on the project. Then Musk disclosed talks with TSMC. Those conversations have been described as preliminary and informal. Intel’s stock price showed noticeable fluctuations after the TSMC discussions surfaced. No specific financial commitments tied to Intel’s role have been made public, and neither has the exact scope of its participation. What this means for Intel and the chip race For Intel, Terafab is a high-profile customer relationship with a famously demanding buyer. Continued involvement gives the company a role in one of the most closely watched US chip projects, and a visible test case for its 14A process. Without disclosed financial terms or a defined scope, Intel’s share of a project that could eventually reach up to $119 billion remains an open question. There are several things worth watching from here. The first is whether Intel and the Terafab companies publish financial terms or production targets tied specifically to Intel. The second is whether TSMC’s talks move past the preliminary stage. A formal TSMC agreement would clarify how work gets divided, and how central Intel really is. The third is progress on the Grimes County site itself. The jump from an initial $16.8 billion-plus plan to a potential $119 billion buildout will happen in phases, and each phase will show whether the 1 terawatt ambition is moving from slide deck to construction site. Finally, watch Tesla’s commentary on 14A. If Tesla keeps pointing to Intel’s process in future earnings calls, that is a stronger signal of Intel’s long-term role than any single headline about who Musk is talking to.

BlackRock's iShares Ethereum Trust accounted for the entire sector outflow on October 6 while Bitcoin funds drew money in Clients of BlackRock’s spot Ethereum fund sold $201.89 million worth of ETH exposure on October 6, 2026. That single redemption made up the whole $202 million net outflow from US spot Ethereum ETFs that day. The move extends a six-day run of withdrawals from the sector. It also lands while Bitcoin ETFs are drawing money in, which hints that investors are rearranging their crypto bets rather than leaving the room. One fund, one very large exit The fund in question is the iShares Ethereum Trust, which trades under the ticker ETHA. It recorded the largest single-fund redemption among US spot Ethereum ETFs on October 6. A spot ETF holds the actual asset, in this case ETH. When clients cash out, the fund redeems shares and its ETH holdings shrink accordingly. This isn’t ETHA’s first notable withdrawal this fall. The fund saw around $110 million in client redemptions on September 16, 2026. That earlier episode happened alongside broader Ethereum ETF outflows totaling $224 million. It arrived against the backdrop of a recent Federal Reserve rate hike. Advertisement ETHA’s latest single-day exit is close to double that mid-September redemption. The bigger picture is still in the black Cumulative net inflows into US spot Ethereum ETFs since their July 2024 launch stand at $13.549 billion.

Unsubscribe anytime. Total assets under management across the group sit at $17.356 billion. That equals 5.27% of Ethereum’s overall market capitalization. ETHA itself carries total historical net inflows of approximately $13.036 billion as of early October 2026. Compare that to the sector-wide $13.549 billion figure, and it becomes clear BlackRock’s product accounts for the overwhelming majority of net money that has entered these funds. That concentration cuts both ways. ETHA’s dominance is why its inflows have powered the category, and it is also why a single bad day for ETHA can turn the whole sector red. Rotation, not retreat? Bitcoin ETFs saw concurrent inflows while Ethereum funds bled, suggesting portfolio reallocation with some investors shifting crypto exposure from ETH toward Bitcoin. BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF, IBIT, has recorded both inflows and outflows in what looks like a rotation environment. BlackRock’s staking-enabled Ethereum product, ETHB, has also faced outflows in recent weeks. Staking lets ETH holders earn a yield by helping secure the network, so a staking-enabled fund adds an income angle to plain price exposure. Ethereum’s spot price has shown resilience following similar ETF withdrawal events in the past, before this latest run of redemptions. What this means for ETH holders and the ETF market Sustained ETF outflows can add selling pressure to the underlying asset. When funds redeem shares, they reduce ETH holdings, and that supply has to be absorbed somewhere in the spot market. Against $17.356 billion in total assets, a $202 million day is meaningful but not existential for the category. The concentration in ETHA is a structural risk for the sector. When one product holds most of the category’s net inflows, the behavior of its client base effectively sets the tone for everyone else. ETHB’s outflows suggest that adding yield to an Ethereum ETF is not, by itself, a reliable way to retain capital when sentiment turns.
