Good morning, you're listening to Markets Desk.

Wall Street's anxiety around artificial intelligence may be creating opportunity rather than risk. Sowmdeb Sen of Silvant Capital Management argues the market is misreading AI spending trends, and has identified two equity positions he believes stand to benefit directly as enterprise AI deployment accelerates rather than stalls.

Shifting to energy markets, President Trump faces a narrowing set of tools in his effort to push fuel prices lower ahead of the midterms. Refinery attacks have constrained global supply in ways that are difficult to reverse quickly, and new mapping data out of the Wall Street Journal illustrates just how geographically fragmented those lost production sources really are, complicating any near-term relief.

And in crypto, Fundstrat's Tom Lee is doubling down on his bullish thesis, declaring the crypto bull market is firmly underway. His comments come as Bitmine disclosed the addition of over ten thousand ethereum to its balance sheet, with the company's combined crypto holdings, cash, and marketable securities now totaling fifteen billion dollars as of late October.

That's the tape. Markets Desk, signing off the floor.
