  8. TSLA Q3 EU delivery beat +5.05%; ARM +6.44% AI silicon rally; CoreWeave Vera Rubin launch = NVDA next-gen GPU platform.
  9. BA FAA 737 MAX software cleared → +0.41%; BULLETIN follow-up adds nuance.
  10. LLY Jaypirca first-line CLL/SLL FDA label expansion → oncology ammunition vs NVO GLP-1 war.
  11. BMS Camzyos FDA label expansion; EW FDA pediatric heart valve first-in-class.
  12. CoreWeave Cathie Wood/ARK + 20-launch Synspective = RKLB momentum.
  13. G7 oil release 50M→100M bbl → BEAR refining; no exposure.
  14. All 7 stops holding; SYY cushion tightened to 3.2% (NEW TIGHTEST post NVDA 13.9%).
