Alphabet(GOOG.O)高管：第三季度自由現金流爲負，主要受資本支出投資驅動。

U.S. merchandise trade deficit widened in September as imports rose, suggesting trade again subtracted from third-quarter GDP. The deficit rose 2.1% ($2.8 bln) to $134.9 bln, versus $130.2 bln expected. Merchandise imports increased $8.1 bln to $344.1 bln; exports rose $5.3 bln to $209.2 bln. Imports were boosted by capital goods tied to AI investment. The government will release preliminary Q3 GDP on Thursday; economists forecast 3.2% annualized growth, up from 2.2% in Q2, with AI investment and consumer spending cited as the main drivers.

An institutional AI model shows the sentiment in Fed Chair Kevin Warsh’s opening remarks at the press conference was slightly less hawkish than at recent meetings; dovish language fell, but hawkish language also declined.
