Companies Devon Energy Corp FollowNov 2 (Reuters) - Shares of U.S. shale oil producer Devon Energy (DVN.N) slumped more than 7% on Wednesday on an outlook for higher than expected capital spending and lower than forecast fourth-quarter output. Investors have been pushing U.S. shale companies to hold spending flat and increase oil and gas output at single-digit percentage levels to generate higher returns. However, companies have warned that higher costs for labor, materials and equipment are pushing up spending. Devon forecast fourth-quarter production of between 640,000 and 660,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boepd), 2% under the midpoint of investment firm Cowen's estimate. Devon executives told investors the company anticipates higher production in 2023 over 2022, but next year's volumes will be at the bottom half of its targeted 0% to 5% growth rate compared to 2022 exit rates.

Apple's earnings received a drastically different reaction from investors than its Big Tech peers Amazon, Google, Microsoft and Facebook. Shares of Apple were up about 7% Friday morning, the day after Apple reported earnings that showed 8% annual sales growth and despite misses on estimates for iPhone and services revenue. Apple looks like a "relatively safe port in the storm," as a note Friday from Credit Suisse analyst Shannon Cross says. Sacconaghi said some of Apple's Big Tech peers also seemed to have issues controlling costs, whereas Apple remains fairly lean and profitable. "Overall, our viewpoint remains consistent that Apple remains recession resilient given its products, services and wearables businesses," wrote Piper Sandler's Harsh Kumar.

Delta Air Lines ' shares are due for takeoff as the industry's recovery continues its rebound from pandemic lows, Cowen says. Analyst Helane Becker upgraded shares of the airline to outperform from market perform, saying in a note to clients Friday that increased business and international travel as pandemic restrictions ease should provide solid tailwinds for Delta moving forward.

Along with the upgrade, Cowen upped its 2022 and 2023 earnings per share estimates to $2.84 and $7, respectively.

What millennials and Gen Z buy — and how they do it — is increasingly influenced by social media platforms, like TikTok and Instagram, according to Cowen. Buying directly from brands Gen Z and millennials also like to shop directly from brands.

"In a five- to 10-year timeframe, quantum computing will break encryption as we know it." Since its conceptual birth in the early 1980s, quantum computing has held promise for systems that could exponentially outperform today's computers. Rather than leaning on the zeroes and ones of classical computers, quantum computers emerged from quantum physics, which is the study of the fundamental building blocks of matter and energy. Those strange properties account for the technology's potentially explosive abilities; each additional qubit doubles a quantum computer's power. They are named D-Wave Systems , Rigetti Computing, IonQ , and Quantum Computing.
