Morgan Stanley: SpaceX's $100 Billion Base Plan Features 10 Launch Pads, Target Price Upside 118%
According to Chaoxiang Research, a Morgan Stanley report dated August 25, 2026, indicates that SpaceX has announced a $100 billion Starbase project in Louisiana, planning five launch complexes totaling 10 launch pads, with construction set to begin in 2027 and the maiden flight scheduled for 2029. SpaceX has currently planned a total of 15 launch pads. Morgan Stanley believes the market has not fully appreciated the scale of Starship; even without including the new base, projected launches through 2040 would only require eight launch pads to sustain operations. Morgan Stanley maintains an Overweight rating with a $300 price target, offering 118% upside from the current $137. Louisiana has provided a substantial incentive package, selected for four key reasons: access to polar orbits, natural gas supply, political hedging, and government incentives. With a payload capacity exceeding five times that of Falcon 9 and full reusability, Morgan Stanley projects launch costs will fall to $500/kg by 2030 and drop below $200/kg by 2035. In Morgan Stanley's sum-of-the-parts valuation, the Enterprise AI segment carries a value of $165. The current stock price implies an extremely low single-digit multiple for this business line, while the orbital AI call option is priced near zero. SpaceX has completed its final Falcon 9 Starlink launch from Florida, with all future Starlink missions transferring entirely to Starship. Each launch's downlink capacity is Falcon
Goldman Sachs: Q2 Earnings Up 135%, APAC Market Still Has 21% Upside Potential
According to Trend Research, Goldman Sachs' August 21, 2026 research report notes that the MSCI Asia Pacific ex Japan Index (MXAPJ) posted Q2 net profit growth of 135% year-over-year and 52% quarter-over-quarter, with 46% of companies beating expectations and a median surprise of 4.3%. The information technology sector led the gains, with earnings up 390% YoY. The current MXAPJ forward P/E ratio stands at 11x, two standard deviations below its 10-year average, placing it in a deeply discounted range. Goldman Sachs has set a 12-month target price of 1,080 points, implying a 21% upside from the current level of 891 points, with an expected total return including dividends of approximately 24%. Goldman Sachs believes earnings resilience will drive valuation repair, recommending overweight positions in capital goods, healthcare, energy, tech hardware and semiconductors, and insurance, while suggesting underweights in autos, software & services, internet, utilities, and metals & mining. Key trading recommendations include going long on portfolios that outperform earnings revisions (launched in July 2021, with a cumulative return of 334%) and going long on AI infrastructure hardware and semiconductors (launched in June 2023, with a cumulative return of 63%). MSCI will adjust its index benchmarks on August 31, triggering approximately $42 billion in two-way capital flows across Asian markets, which could amplify volatility toward the end of the month. Downside risks to monitor include rising long-end US Treasury yields, escalating geopolitical tensions, and the pace of China’s economic recovery.
Nomura: ChangXin Surges 471% on First-Day Opening, Target Price of 116 Yuan Implies 12x Upside
According to Chaoxiang Research, CXMT listed on the STAR Market on July 27, surging 471% at opening, with market capitalization briefly exceeding 3.3 trillion yuan. Nomura Securities released its initiation report on the same day, granting a Buy rating with a target price of 116 yuan, corresponding to a 20x P/E ratio based on 2028 EPS of 5.8 yuan, implying over 12x upside based on an issue price of 8.66 yuan. Nomura noted that AI is driving a structural surge in DRAM demand, with AI memory demand CAGR exceeding 60% from 2026 to 2030, while global supply growth rate is only 30% to 40%, and the supply-demand gap will continue to widen. As the world's fourth-largest DRAM manufacturer, CXMT currently holds a global share of about 10%, expected to rise to 18% by the end of 2028, approaching Micron's scale. Q1 2026 revenue was 50.8 billion yuan (YoY +719%), and net profit attributable to shareholders of the parent company was 24.76 billion yuan (YoY +1688%), with quarterly profit already exceeding the full year 2025. Nomura believes CXMT should enjoy a "China premium," with the 20x PE valuation based on the midpoint between Micron's 10x historical average and the 1 to 3x valuation gap between Chinese and US semiconductor equipment stocks. Northeast Securities gave a valuation range of 3.2 to 5.7 trillion yuan on the same day, while Nomura's 7.76 trillion yuan is relatively optimistic; the core divergence lies in CXMT's long-term market share ceiling.
Bernstein: AI Computing Power Continues to Expand, Semiconductor Equipment Valuation Has Upside Potential

“White-Haired Stock God” Serenity: Jabil May Be Undervalued by the Market, AI Optical Module Business Could Drive a 40% Valuation Revaluation Upside
“White-Haired Stock God” Serenity posted on platform X, stating that Jabil (JBL), currently with a market cap of approximately $38 billion, represents an attractive long-term investment opportunity. The market may not have fully priced in the potential value of its 1.6T LRO pluggable optical module business.By the first half of 2027, the industry bottleneck may no longer be insufficient demand, but rather the production capacity limitations of key upstream supplier SIVE. In this context, leveraging its mature global supply chain system and the advantage of taking over Intel's (INTC) pluggable optical module production line, Jabil is well-positioned to benefit from the demand growth driven by AI infrastructure construction. Compared to Applied Optoelectronics (AAOI), which relies on continuous capital expenditure to expand laser factories, if SIVE and multiple foundries including Win Semi achieve mass production of lasers, Jabil's backend manufacturing and integration model will prove more scalable.Serenity stated that Jabil currently possesses a supply chain system validated by hyperscale cloud service providers, exhibiting a growth trajectory similar to that of Innolight, while also enjoying a valuation premium in the US market. He expects that as the market gradually recognizes the relevant opportunities by the first half of 2027, Jabil has approximately 40% room for valuation revaluation. However, he emphasized that he currently holds no positions and is merely sharing research ideas for investors' reference.
Bernstein Reiterates Figure Price Target of $67: Sees 72% Upside Driven by Tokenization
Bernstein has reiterated its "Outperform" rating on Figure Technology Solutions (FIGR) and maintained a price target of $67, implying approximately 72% upside from the current share price of $38.97.Figure posted strong Q1 2026 results: loan origination volume reached $2.9 billion, up 113% year-over-year; adjusted revenue was $167 million, surpassing market expectations by 6% and up 92% year-over-year; adjusted EBITDA was $82.7 million, with a margin of approximately 50%, slightly above market consensus. However, GAAP diluted EPS was $0.18, missing expectations by about 9%, primarily impacted by $26 million in stock-based compensation expenses.Bernstein analysts believe this performance should reshape market perception of Figure, viewing it not as a traditional credit company, but as a "tokenization-driven capital markets platform." Core profitability stems from network fees and operational leverage from scaling, and the valuation framework remains based on 25x 2027 EBITDA. Additionally, the tokenization ecosystem continues to expand: the yield-bearing security token YLDS reached $598 million (up 80% quarter-over-quarter); the stock lending product balance stood at $368 million (up 79%); and the small business loan segment contributed $60 million in revenue.Figure's current share price remains not far from its 2025 IPO offering price of $36, but still significantly below its all-time high of $78.

Bonk Guy Calls Another Token USELESS: Already Listed on Upbit and Bithumb, Watch for Its Potential Upside
Trader Bonk Guy (Unipcs) posted that he has long considered USELESS to be this cycle's equivalent to DOGE, SHIB, or PEPE, yet many continue to disregard it. He noted that South Korea's two major centralized exchanges, Upbit and Bithumb, listed USELESS just hours apart today, granting it a major new distribution channel from one of the world's key crypto markets. Bonk Guy further emphasized that attention should remain on whether USELESS will be listed on Hyperliquid, Robinhood, or Binance Spot next. He argued that instead of debating whether USELESS will emerge as this cycle's flagship memecoin, focus should shift to how high its price can potentially reach, as the underlying pattern is becoming increasingly clear. He also noted that investors can either accumulate USELESS now or wait until its market cap reaches several billion dollars, perceiving that stage as "safer".
Jim Cramer: AI-Driven Memory Stock Super Cycle, Four Major Storage Stocks Still Have Upside Potential
According to CNBC, renowned investor Jim Cramer stated that the AI boom has fundamentally changed the cyclical patterns of the memory industry. Although SanDisk has surged 653% this year, Seagate 261%, Micron 254%, and Western Digital 211%, it is still not too late to enter the market now. Cramer pointed out three core reasons why this cycle differs from history: First, memory supply is extremely scarce; Musk has publicly stated that memory has become the biggest bottleneck for data center expansion. Second, manufacturers are no longer blindly expanding production, but instead locking in profit margins through long-term customer agreements. Third, companies are using profits for stock buybacks rather than capacity expansion. SanDisk still has $15.5 billion in buyback capacity, Seagate is advancing a $5 billion buyback plan, and Western Digital added a $4 billion buyback authorization this year. Cramer is particularly bullish on Micron, believing it still has the potential to double provided AI data center demand remains unabated, and has already established positions through his charitable trust fund.

JPMorgan: Sees Upside to NVIDIA's October Guidance at 107 Billion, H200 China Shipments Remain Uncertain
According to TechFlow Research, JPMorgan's August 24, 2026 research report indicates that NVIDIA's revenue for its fiscal 2027 second quarter (the July quarter) is expected to fall within the $94 billion to $95 billion range, slightly above the market consensus of $92.1 billion. GB300 rack shipments increased by approximately 15% quarter-over-quarter to 17,000 to 18,000 units. Revenue guidance for the October quarter may reach $107 billion to $108 billion, roughly 3% higher than the market consensus of $104.5 billion, primarily driven by initial Vera Rubin shipments and the ramp-up of China H200 deliveries. JPMorgan estimates that every 100,000 H200 chips shipped generates approximately $3 billion in incremental revenue, with early signs of customer deliveries for the China H200 already emerging recently.

Tom Lee Warns of the Risk of Missing Bitcoin's "10 Best Days": This Week May Already Be a Critical Upside Window
Odaily News: Tom Lee stated on the X platform that investors waiting for a crypto market bottom in October need to reassess the risks of market timing. Citing Fundstrat's "Rule of 10 Best Days" for Bitcoin, he noted that Bitcoin's long-term gains are highly concentrated in just a few trading days.Tom Lee said historical data shows that the majority of Bitcoin's gains come from the 10 best-performing trading days of the year. If holders miss these 10 days, their investment returns could drop significantly. Data shows that capturing Bitcoin's 10 best trading days yields cumulative returns of approximately 162%, while excluding those 10 trading days results in a return of -14%."This week has already become one of those 10 best trading days, and long-term investors should choose to HODL rather than trying to time the exact bottom," Tom Lee said.He has repeatedly emphasized in the past that investors who frequently enter and exit the market often miss the most important upside phases. Fundstrat research also shows that market returns tend to concentrate on a few extreme up days, and waiting for a pullback before re-entering could lead to missing critical market moves.
