Ninth Wave and AWS Study Finds Compass on Amazon Bedrock Cuts Bank Onboarding Integration Testing by 95%

Nvidia Corporation is adding the Open Agent Safety Platform to its AI infrastructure stack, an open software and reference system for securing AI agents from testing to deployment that combines OpenShell software with Nvidia Sentry on BlueField DPUs to monitor, control, and isolate potentially harmful agent activity. The launch follows recent incidents involving AI agents from OpenAI and Anthropic, including an OpenAI agent breaching Hugging Face, and Nvidia said the new platform could have prevented that breach by controlling agent permissions and isolating suspicious behavior. More than 100 organizations, including major technology and software enterprise companies, are involved in the platform. Nvidia said the main uncertainty for investors is how it will monetize the platform, since OpenShell is open source and works across different CPU architectures, while Sentry is more directly tied to the company's BlueField hardware, and it is still too early to view the platform as a meaningful short-term earnings driver. Nvidia's forward GAAP P/E of 22.79x sits about 56% below its 5-year average of 51.72x, and its forward price-to-sales ratio of 13.33x is about 32% below its 5-year average of 19.70x. As of July 26, Nvidia held $22.44 billion in cash and cash equivalents and $34.14 billion in marketable debt securities, against about $33.37 billion in total debt, while hedge fund ownership rose from 275 funds at the end of Q1 2026 to 285 funds at the end of Q2 2026 and short interest stood at just 1.27% of float as of September 15, 2026.

Adobe announced in late September 2026 a partnership making it the National Hockey League's Official Creative, Marketing and AI Partner, alongside a multi-year AI-powered customer experience collaboration with Jet2 to personalise holiday planning and travel content. The two alliances place Adobe's CX Enterprise, Firefly and GenStudio tools at the centre of large-scale customer engagement programs spanning sport and travel, with the Jet2 deal serving as a concrete proof point for CX Enterprise Coworker and agentic AI in a high-volume consumer setting. Adobe's investment narrative projects $33.4 billion in revenue and $9.5 billion in earnings by 2029, requiring 8.7% yearly revenue growth and roughly a $2.2 billion earnings increase from $7.3 billion today, and yields a $275.06 fair value representing 16% upside to the current price. More cautious analysts assume only about US$32.6 billion of revenue and US$9.3 billion of earnings by 2029, citing AI pricing pressure and ARR growth risk. The deals do not on their own remove near-term pressure around slowing net new ARR or the risk that AI pricing competition and the upcoming CEO transition unsettle earnings and sentiment.

Corpay has expanded its Corpay Complete platform with several new AI agents that automate expense analysis, voice driven expense creation, virtual card issuance, and transaction coding across corporate, fleet, and vendor payments. The new tools are being rolled out to eligible Corpay Complete customers this month and are designed to centralize spend data, strengthen finance grade controls, and streamline workflows for finance teams. The rollout lands on top of earlier product updates in April and July, and comes as Corpay has raised its 2026 cash EPS guidance to $27.35 and plans to use divestiture proceeds for repurchases, alongside roughly $15b of available capital for buybacks and targeted corporate payments deals. Corpay closed at $394.60, while the most followed narrative pegs fair value at $461.00, implying 14.4% undervaluation, though on a P/E lens CPAY trades at 22.9x versus a US Diversified Financial industry average of 16.6x, a peer average of 16.9x, and a fair ratio of 16.8x. The company also faces pressure if the proposed US$100m U.S. Vehicle Payments settlement reshapes fuel card pricing or if organic growth underperforms current analyst assumptions.
