Following a $28.6 billion buyback announcement by SK Hynix, Samsung Electronics announced plans to return up to 110 trillion won (approximately $80 billion) to investors this year, maintaining its commitment to return 50% of cumulative free cash flow from 2024 to 2026. The plan includes 30 trillion won in third-quarter dividends and 15 trillion won in share repurchases designated for employee bonuses. Samsung's shares fell as much as 2.6% in post-market trading as the announced return fell short of some investor expectations of up to 150 trillion won. Analysts noted that both memory-chip companies are acting to support valuations following recent selloffs in memory stocks as momentum investors rotate into other trades.

Orbital data center startup Starcloud has added a $250 million extension to its Series A funding round, bringing the round's total to $420 million and valuing the company at $2.3 billion. The funding, led by Manhattan West Ventures with participation from investors including Nvidia and Cisco, will be used to open a larger manufacturing facility in Washington and advance the Starcloud-3 spacecraft. CEO Philip Johnston stated that the capital will help secure necessary launch capacity amid tightening market conditions, as SpaceX prepares to phase out the Falcon 9 program by 2028 and transition to Starship. Starcloud plans to launch its Starcloud-2 compute satellites on rideshare flights in 2027 and aims to fly Nvidia's forthcoming Vera Rubin Space-1 chip in late 2028.

HSBC's Global Commodity Team warned that the global zinc market is showing signs of extreme tightness, projecting a 2.1% year-over-year decline in global mine supply for 2026 to 12.5 million tonnes due to lower production in Latin America. Physical tightness is reflected in London Metal Exchange (LME) zinc for immediate delivery trading at its widest backwardation of the year—up to a $132.37 per ton premium over three-month futures—while benchmark zinc rose to $3,802 a ton, heading toward its fifth weekly gain and a four-year high. Additionally, analysts from Jinrui Futures noted ongoing concerns over overseas supply disruptions and macroeconomic volatility. Commodities strategist Jeff Currie stated that tight physical markets, currency debasement, and policy intervention signal a structural commodity bull cycle and advised investors to get long.

Apollo chief economist Torsten Slok noted that while traditional rate-sensitive sectors slowed following the Federal Reserve's 2022 rate hikes, data center construction surged due to expected AI returns, blunting monetary tightening alongside other rate-insensitive growth impulses. The author contrasts this by drawing parallels to the Great Financial Crisis, highlighting risks from leverage, fraud, off-balance-sheet financing through insurers, and a reliance on data center buildouts, while also pointing to warnings from the Bank for International Settlements. Additionally, the author discusses a research paper on "Intelligence per Watt" which demonstrates that a vast majority of chat and reasoning queries can be handled by small local models, and that hybrid local-cloud routing significantly reduces energy, compute, and cost.

A leaked memo from the Republican Party’s Senate campaign arm warns major AI companies that public backlash against data centers could jeopardize a pivotal Senate seat in Ohio currently held by Senator Jon Husted. The document states that Democrats have made data centers a central issue in the election, cautioning that if Husted loses, anti-data center campaigns could spread nationwide. The memo advises tech companies to improve public perception of these facilities, as the local data center boom in Ohio has strained emergency services and raised utility prices. Additionally, broader concerns regarding AI have surfaced in the state, including testimony that AI chatbots were mentioned in suicide notes left by at least four children.
Keywords: AI data centers, Republicans, election, political backlash
