Google Q3 financial report: Cloud business grew by 103%, net profit decreased by 25% year-on-year

Alphabet, Google's parent company, announced its third-quarter financial report for 2026 in the early hours of October 29, Beijing time. The quarterly revenue was $127.6 billion, a year-on-year increase of 25%, achieving double-digit growth for the 13th consecutive quarter, with an annualized revenue run rate of $500 billion. Revenue slightly missed Wall Street expectations, and net profit declined year-on-year, overall falling short of market expectations.Google Cloud revenue grew 103% year-on-year to $30.7 billion, a record increase, mainly driven by demand for enterprise AI infrastructure, AI solutions, and TPU-related needs. Google Services revenue increased by 11% to $96.3 billion, with search and other advertising revenue growing by 12% year-on-year, and YouTube advertising revenue increasing by about 9% to $11.2 billion. The company stated that the year-on-year growth rate of search queries was the highest in nearly five years, with AI-related features contributing to increased usage.Net profit attributable to common shareholders was $26.2 billion, a year-on-year decrease of about 25%, with earnings per share of $2.12. The profit decline was mainly affected by losses from equity securities investments, with related losses for the quarter amounting to about $8.7 billion, whereas this item had contributed significantly to profits in the same period last year. Operating profit increased by 30% year-on-year to $40.6 billion, with an operating margin rising to 31.8%. The free cash flow for the quarter was negative, and the full-year capital expenditure guidance remained at $195 billion to $205 billion.

Tencent is beta testing "Tencent Cloud Drive," positioning it as a unified memory base for multiple agents

According to "Du Jia," Tencent has launched the internal testing of "Tencent Cloud Drive," with some features still being iterated, and plans to release an App version. This product focuses on file storage, data management, and AI applications, with a core positioning as a unified memory base for multiple Agents, aiming to connect various AI applications and office tools, unify and carry context, allowing multiple Agents to collaborate based on the same information.Practical tests show that the internal test version retains basic entry points such as the homepage, files, recycle bin, and storage space, with a floating AI assistant panel on the right side. The core highlight of the product is its "connection" capability, supporting binding with Tencent Docs, WorkBuddy, and integrating third-party Agents like DeepSeek Harness and OpenClaw. After authorization, the Cloud Drive AI assistant can read application files, automatically sync updates, and directly call information as a knowledge base for retrieval, summarization, and content generation. The binding page will clearly inform users of the scope of permissions and the rules for AI credit consumption.The report points out that, unlike traditional Cloud Drive AI's document summarization, this system fully connects documents, Cloud Drive files, and Agent workspaces, shifting the Cloud Drive from a file repository to a data memory platform in the AI era.

Analysis: Binance's ETH open contracts priced in USD have halved compared to last year's peak, but the ETH pricing is close to its peak

CryptoQuant analyst BaykusCharts stated that Binance's Ethereum open interest is currently about 5.8 billion USD, which is about half of last summer's peak of over 12 billion USD. On the surface, this looks like large-scale deleveraging, but open interest is denominated in USD, and the ETH price has also dropped by about half during the same period. When converted to ETH, the current open interest is about 2.5 million ETH, close to the peak of about 2.5 million ETH. Therefore, the decline is primarily driven by price rather than traders closing their positions.In terms of funding rates, the significant positive premiums seen in early 2021 and early 2024 have disappeared. After experiencing several periods of negative funding rates this year, it is currently just slightly above zero, with both long and short positions not overly crowded, and longs are not paying significant premiums. Analysis suggests that there is still a large amount of leveraged ETH exposure in the market, but there is a lack of strong directional confidence. This limits the risk of a one-sided liquidation chain reaction, but it also means that any decisive breakthrough in either direction could accelerate quickly. The key signals are: a price increase and a sharp rise in funding rates indicate long crowding; a price decrease and an increase in open interest indicate a growth in short positions.

The document lists the minimum commitments for computing power as follows: at least $114.5 billion to Google by 2033, at least $110 billion to Amazon by 2036, and $44.9 billion to Microsoft; the minimum commitments remain valid regardless of whether the computing power is actually used.
