Blackstone (BX) Shines With Big Q3 Beat & $18B Hologic Deal – But Why Are Shares Falling?

Blackstone’s latest results painted a mixed picture. The firm reported distributable earnings of $1.889 billion, up 48% from a year ago and well above the $1.23 forecastreuters.com. However, on a GAAP basis net income dropped to $624.9 million from $780.8 million last year, and total revenue slid about 15.7% year-over-yearts2.tech. Investors focused on the earnings miss and slowing revenue, which partly offset the beat on cash profit. As a result, BX shares dipped about 1% intraday on Oct. 23, trading around $160benzinga.com. CEO Steve Schwarzman nonetheless called Q3 “exceptional” due to momentum across Blackstone’s businessesbenzinga.com. Piper Sandler analyst Crispin Love said the better-than-expected results were driven by a surge in realized performance fees – reflecting renewed deal activity – after a multi‑year lull. “There’s been a lot of pent-up demand… and you’re beginning to see that come through,” Love said, adding that this sets up 2026 for a potential boom in IPOs and exitsreuters.com. Indeed, Blackstone sold roughly $30 billion of investments in Q3, more than doubling its PE segment earnings from the prior quarterreuters.com.

AI Models Are Scheming – Inside OpenAI’s Plan to Stop Deceptive AI Behavior

How to Invest in OpenAI in 2025: All the Ways to Own a Stake in ChatGPT’s Creator

OpenAI’s background: OpenAI started in 2015 as a research lab co-founded by Sam Altman and Elon Musk with a non-profit mission. In 2019, to fund expensive AI development, OpenAI created a hybrid for-profit entity with a capped-profit model – investors can earn returns up to a certain limit, after which the majority of profits return to the original non-profit to support its mission reuters.com. This structure is highly unusual, and it’s part of why OpenAI hasn’t gone public yet. Altman has openly said he’s wary of an IPO in the near term, joking that he doesn’t want to be “sued by…Wall Street” for making unconventional decisions in pursuit of long-term AGI goals reuters.com. In his view, public market pressure might conflict with OpenAI’s mission. That said, the company’s recent actions suggest change is on the horizon – more on that in the outlook section. Who owns OpenAI now? Because OpenAI is private, its ownership is divided among its founders, employees, and a list of venture capital firms and strategic investors. Over 11 funding rounds from 2016 through March 2025, OpenAI raised about $57.9 billion in capital investingnews.com. Initially, tech VCs like Thrive Capital, Andreessen Horowitz, Khosla Ventures, and Founders Fund

Europe Sets the Pace: The European Union’s landmark AI Act hit a new milestone as of August 2, with key provisions on governance standards, general-purpose AI and a sanctions regime coming into force cio.com.

  • Sugar prices jump as India's weak monsoon and El Niño worries hit supply
    June 29, 2026, 1:29 PM EDT. Sugar prices rallied Friday, with New York sugar hitting its highest in two weeks and London sugar at a 2.75-month peak. Traders pointed to India's 42% below-normal monsoon rainfall as a main driver, putting pressure on sugarcane crops. India's Earth Science Ministry says it's the weakest monsoon in 11 years for the world's No. 2 sugar producer. Brazil's sugar output is also under pressure, as more cane goes to ethanol and Unica reported a 2% output drop through May. A confirmed El Niño weather pattern is raising more supply worries, with the U.S. NOAA citing a 67% chance of a strong "Super El Niño" this year, which could mean less rain for Brazil, India, and Thailand. All this keeps sugar prices up.
