Top stocks users cared about most this week 5:AI Financing pressure hits the AI infrastructure chain, while Roadster and HomeView provide new-product catalysts

BlockBeats reported that October 16, U.S. stocks this week repriced around the question of “AI investment covering financing costs.” CoreWeave bonds faced continuous selling, with yields briefly rising above 15%putting highly leveraged AI cloud and chip stocks under pressure; although the index rebounded by October 15 the volatility of high-growth stocks increased significantly. Meanwhile, new-product catalysts including the Tesla Roadster and Apple HomeView prompted funds to seek new trading clues beyond high-valuation AI stocks.

Tesla (down approximately 4.12%): Tesla released the next-generation Roadster, jointly developed by Tesla and SpaceX engineers, equipped with compressed-gas thrusters, and plans to begin production in 2028; however, the new-product news did not fully offset the pressure from its high valuation and declining risk appetite, and the share price fell from 378.03 USD to 362.44 USD。

SK SK hynix (down approximately 20.75%):AI Memory stocks came under broad pressure this week, with SK hynix falling from 1605000 won to 1272000 won; the company is seeking U.S. approval to add export equipment for its factories in China and link this to its U.S.NAND manufacturing plans, while the market continues to monitor HBM conditions and global capacity allocation.

CoreWeave (down approximately 13.17%):CRWV from 80.26 USD to 69.69 USD with bond yields nearing 15%became the focus of the AI cloud sector this week; the market began reassessing its highly leveraged expansion model. Although demand for computing power remains strong, subsequent financing costs and cash-flow pressure have been amplified.

MiniMax (down approximately 14.91%): Before the Double 11 shopping festival, MiniMax opened an official flagship store on Tmall, seeking to bring its model capabilities and Token services to a broader consumer market; however, the commercialization boost failed to reverse the valuation pullback, and 0100.HK fell this week from 214 Hong Kong dollars to 182.1 Hong Kong dollars.

Apple (up approximately 0.30%): Apple released the HomeView smart-home hub, featuring Siri AI and a 7-inch screen, targeting home management, audiovisual entertainment, communications, and screen interaction; when AI computing-power stocks broadly weakened, the expansion of its product ecosystem provided a relatively defensive attribute, and AAPL edged higher.
