Dan Nathan and Guy Adami recap the Apex Innovation Summit in Austin ahead of an interview with Peak6/Apex founders Jenny Just and Matt Hulsizer. They discuss midterm-election market reactions, a sharp two-day rotation and selloff led by AI-centric stocks and semiconductors (including major declines in Nvidia and the SOXX/SMH), widening stress in “neocloud” names like CoreWeave, and high volatility spilling into banks and private-credit-related financials. They review an October jobs report print of 165,000 versus an estimate near 70,000, its impact on yields, and how the Fed’s inflation fight could be complicated by an AI-trade slowdown. In the interview, Just and Hulsizer cover innovation such as prediction markets, 24/7 trading, fractional options, liquidity provision, investing in founders and culture, “Poker Power” and risk-taking, and Apex’s stock-rewards loyalty programs.
