Netflix $NFLX Downgraded to Hold at Needham amid decelerating revenue growth The company's FX-neutral revenue growth decelerated from 14% in Q1 to 12% in Q2 and to 11% in Q3, with single-digit revenue growth projected in FY27, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Netflix content problem "seems clear", and while the firm believes Peter Rice is "an excellent TV executive," it will take him about two years to fix the company's $20 billion content slate, Needham notes, stating that the strategic position at Netflix relative to YouTube is deteriorating.

JPMorgan lays out potential SpaceX $SPCX, Tesla $TSLA merger terms JPMorgan keeps a Neutral rating on Tesla with a $415 price target after Elon Musk announced that SpaceX and Tesla formed special committees to review a potential merger. The "logic for a combination remains coherent," as both companies share engineering talent, AI infrastructure, the Terafab chip facility in Texas, and Musk's leadership and engineering philosophy, the analyst tells investors in a research note. JPMorgan sees the potential deal structure as likely to be a SpaceX led all-stock deal at a 30%-35% premium for Tesla shares. This would imply a merger of equals and clear the threshold for Musk maintaining over 50% voting control of the combined entity, the firm points out. JPMorgan sees shareholder and regulatory approval as the key hurdles. China could be a particular regulatory hurdle given the potential national security sensitivities created by SpaceX's defense and U.S. government ties, the firm contends.

SpaceX $SPCX – Analysts Raise Price Targets After Q3 Earnings JPMorgan – Overweight | $240 → $500 Cantor Fitzgerald – Overweight | $246 → $345 Barclays – Overweight | $254 → $300 Morgan Stanley – Overweight | $300 Citi – Buy | $200 → $240 UBS – Buy | $210 → $230 TD Cowen – Buy | $200 → $224 Analysts cite strong Q3 results, accelerating AI compute expansion, improving Starlink pricing, and Starship progress as key growth drivers.

Rosenblatt starts Robinhood $HOOD at Buy, says market still under-appreciates maturity Rosenblatt initiated coverage of Robinhood with a Buy rating and $135 price target. Few companies can claim to have changed an entire industry, but what started as a commission-free trading app has become a full financial platform, and the market still under-appreciates how much the story has matured, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Robinhood core brokerage keeps taking share even at massive scale, and Pattern Day Trading reform removes a key constraint on its most valuable customers, the firm added.

Cantor Fitzgerald maintains Overweight on Tesla $TSLA ahead of Q3 Earnings on Wednesday Cantor Fitzgerald analyst Andres Sheppard tells investors in a research note that Tesla's Q3 results are expected to show about $27.9B revenue, below the $28.3B consensus, with estimated gross margin of 17.1% versus 18% consensus and EPS of 47c versus 45c, while energy storage deployments missed expectations and negative free cash flow is likely to persist amid capex of more than $25B. The firm sees focus on FSD adoption, Robotaxi and Cybercab expansion, Optimus production, Semi deliveries, Terafab investment, Roadster timing, and potential SpaceX merger speculation. Cantor has an Overweight rating and $485 price target on the stock.

5-Star Loop analyst downgrades Apple $AAPL to Hold on iPhone concerns Loop Capital analyst Ananda Baruah downgraded Apple to Hold from Buy with a price target of $330, down from $370. The firm lowered Apple's estimates to reflect its new iPhone data. After Apple reduced its September and December iPhone unit shipments by 10%, Loop believed the company would be in a position to make up many if not most of the lost units through 2027 as the reductions were supply related and not demand related. "This no longer appears to be the case," the analyst tells investors in a research note. Loop also sees potential gross margin risk for Apple, saying memory costs continue to increase.

Amazon $AMZN price target raised to $350, named a Top Pick at Morgan Stanley Morgan Stanley analyst Brian Nowak raised the firm's price target on Amazon to $350 from $335 and keeps an Overweight rating on the shares, which were also moved to Top Pick among the analyst's coverage. The firm, which continues to think AWS's growth and profit runway is "under-appreciated," is now expecting 47% and 42% year-over-year growth in 2027 and 2028, respectively. The firm sees AWS operating as a "rule of 90" company in 2027-2028, paving the way for Amazon to generate about $16.50 of 2028 EPS, the analyst added.

🔼CoreWeave $CRWV upgraded to Buy at Goldman Sachs after 24% dip in last five days Goldman Sachs upgraded CoreWeave to Buy from Neutral with a price target of $106, down from $139. The firm, which notes 73% upside to its revised price target, notes that the stock is down 43% since Aug 11 and 24% in the last five trading days, due to ongoing volatility in the credit market, which raises questions on if and at what rate CoreWeave will be able to finance their next phase of growth, along with debate on demand for intelligence at the frontier vs. off frontier, and whether changing mix impacts token monetization at CoreWeave's customers. However, the firm believes CoreWeave's ARR per MW, and therefore unlevered IRR, is "biased to the upside" in the next 24 months because of tight supply, as well as the view that CoreWeave is differentiated from other neoclouds, the analyst tells investors.

🔼Intel $INTC upgraded to Neutral from Underweight at JPMorgan JPMorgan upgraded Intel to Neutral from Underweight with an unchanged price target of $85. The firm sees a more balanced risk/reward with the shares nearing its price target. Intel shares have pulled back 36% from its peak in June, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Since Lip-Bu Tan's appointment to CEO, JPMorgan believes Intel's execution and competitiveness in its core data center compute market has improved. The company's execution on next-generation manufacturing has also significantly improved, adds the firm.

SpaceX $SPCX price target raised to $275 from $230 at Evercore ISI Evercore ISI analyst Kutgun Maral raised the firm's price target on SpaceX to $275 from $230 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares as part of a Q3 earnings preview. The company's "transformative catalysts" are "closer than they appear," the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm expects SpaceX's Q3 print to be judged less on the quarter than on the debates that should drive medium-term estimates and sentiment through year-end and into 2027. While investor skeptics "point to a complex story built on long-dated initiatives that can feel more science fiction than financial model," the "proof points are closer than many appreciate," contends Evercore. The firm says Starship reached orbit and deployed its first V3 satellites on Flight 14, while reuse could be proven within the next few flights. It sees "transformative catalysts" in 2027 for SpaceX.
