Don’t just look at the buyback amount—the dividend cost is the key
💰 The most important aspect of STRC to study may not be how much was repurchased, but whether this financing is actually expensive.
Strategy raises funds through preferred stock instruments, providing more options for capital operations. But preferred stock is not cost-free capital, as its dividend arrangements mean the company must continually bear cash outlays or related financing pressures.
Assuming the company continues expanding the scale of its preferred stock, even if this can support market demand in the short term, it

#闪迪重挫6%存储股收跌 SanDisk Falls 5.97% as AI Storage Stocks Face a Valuation and Competition Test
The AI infrastructure trade is facing a fresh reality check. On October 13, 2026, SanDisk (SNDK) dropped 5.97%, while Micron (MU) declined 3.88%, Seagate Technology (STX) fell 3.80%, and Western Digital (WDC) lost 2.60%. The synchronized decline shows that selling pressure has spread across both flash-memory and traditional data-storage companies.
Yet the broader market weakness was relatively limited. The S&P 500 slipped approximately 0.02%, the Nasdaq Composite fell 0.15%, and the Philadelphia Semicon

#Bitcoin drops below $83,000 as hotter-than-expected U.S. CPI data triggers a fresh sell-off across crypto markets.
Inflation at 3.7% is now the third-highest reading since September 2023, fueling expectations of further Fed rate hikes through 2027.
Higher rates could keep pressure on risk assets.
Will $BTC hold key support, or is more downside ahead ?

The 84,000 resistance level has repeatedly signaled weakness—any rebound is a shorting opportunity! In the afternoon, the market touched the 84,000 level, so I entered directly and followed the short, successfully capturing 1,000 points and banking 15,000 in profit!
The key resistance was tested repeatedly, and I acted decisively when the market reached the level! #美国9月CPI超预期 $BTC

Two wicks wiped out both longs and shorts; those who chased longs at 4110 are in for a treat.

In September 2026, total passenger car retail sales reached 1.618 million units,
New energy passenger car retail sales reached 1.084 million units, accounting for 67.0%, a historic high,
Fuel-powered vehicle retail sales reached 534,000 units, accounting for 33%.
I haven't seen any friends around me buy a fuel-powered vehicle in a long time.🥲

🌍 GATE ENTERS THE OXFORD UNION CONVERSATION: A NEW CHAPTER FOR THE FUTURE OF MONEY
Some milestones make headlines. Others open the door to conversations that could shape the future of an entire industry. Gate’s upcoming appearance at the Oxford Union brings together both possibilities.
We are proud to share that Dr. Han, Founder and CEO of Gate, has been invited to speak at the Oxford Union on November 12, 2026, at the University of Oxford.
This is an exciting moment for Gate and the wider digital asset industry. The discussion will focus on three important theme

BREAKING: State Street posts Q3 adjusted EPS of $3.69, up 33% year over year, as assets under custody and administration surge to $59.17 trillion, up 15% year over year.

$LIT needs this, or we looking for 2.70 - 2.50 for the next solid base

The US September CPI just came out (20:30), and it was hotter than expected.
Headline CPI came in at 3.7% year-over-year, versus 3.6% expected and 3.4% last month; month-over-month CPI was 0.6%, in line with expectations, driven mainly by oil prices.
The key figure was core CPI (excluding food and energy): 0.3% month-over-month, versus 0.2% expected; 2.6% year-over-year, versus 2.5% expected.
Core CPI also exceeded expectations, showing that price increases are not just about oil. The Fed has even less reason to ease, rate-cut expectations are being pushed back, and risk assets are taking an i

I started with 10,000U in live trading for several months and currently have 9,220U remaining. I used part of it to add to my spot holdings, so overall I’m roughly at break-even. There are still some issues to resolve, but I believe consistently turning a profit is not far away.

After $ENA failed to hold the 0.212 resistance level, it seized the shorting opportunity. The breakout attempt was thwarted, and the market cleanly posted a 356% gain. 📉 🔻 Profit: $ 279 Today, focus on $WAL and $ETH .

On the eve of the CPI data release, the market’s rebound remained under pressure at the 84 level. Mr. Guo’s second trade of the day continued to follow the short setup. Once the CPI data was released, the market immediately retraced in a straight line, capturing another 1000 points and banking 16k in oil!
The pace was managed in advance ahead of a major data milestone, and the market fulfilled the forecast as expected. #美国9月CPI超预期 $BTC

$WAL Just Flipped Bullish! These 3 Resistance Levels Could Be the Next Targets
#WAL has broken its long-term descending resistance TL near $0.036 and reclaimed the $0.04030 bullish flip level. Both developments strengthen the bullish reversal thesis on the HTF.
UPSIDE TARGETS: $0.085/$0.153/$0.3
These resistance levels are my potential upside targets if bullish momentum continues.
MY ACCUMULATION ZONE: $0.038–$0.031
After this explosive green candle, I would not chase the pump. Let FOMO cool down and wait for price to stabilize. A potential 30%–50% correction could offer an attractive accumula

🔥 GATE SQUARE MARKET WATCH | OCTOBER 14, 2026
Three stories. Three different markets. One big question: Where is capital moving next? 📊
🇺🇸 1️⃣ U.S. CPI: Inflation Is Back in Focus
September U.S. inflation came in hotter on the annual headline figure.
- Headline CPI: 3.7% year over year
- Monthly CPI: +0.6%
- Core CPI: 2.6% year over year
Higher gasoline prices contributed significantly to the monthly increase. The data complicates the Federal Reserve’s outlook, but it does not automatically guarantee another rate hike.
BTC watch: If yields and the dollar strengthen, crypto could face addit

You open Gate, see $WAL up 40.89%, and your stomach drops a little. “Did I miss it?”
I know that feeling. So before reacting, I asked one simple question: why is it moving?
Right now, I don’t have a confirmed answer. About $3.96M worth was traded in the last 24 hours, and the price is sitting close to its daily high.
That tells me people are interested. It doesn’t tell me why.
So my next steps are simple: read the official news, check if new coins are about to be released into the market, and see if the move is backed by real activity.
If I can’t find a clear reason, I’ll say so openly.
