According to @StockMKTNewz, ServiceNow (NOW) announced a 5-for-1 stock split, stating the share count will rise fivefold while the price per share will drop to one-fifth, leaving total company value unchanged (source: @StockMKTNewz). This alignment is consistent with regulatory guidance that stock splits do not alter a company’s overall market capitalization or shareholder equity value (source: U.S. SEC Investor.gov). Traders should expect options contracts on NOW to be adjusted by the Options Clearing Corporation to maintain economic equivalence post-split, a standard process during split events (source: OCC). For crypto risk sentiment, equity market risk-on phases have shown periods of positive correlation with BTC, so any short-term tech sentiment shift around the split could coincide with BTC moves even without direct linkage (source: Coin Metrics).

According to @StockMKTNewz, citing Bloomberg, Apple (AAPL) is preparing to launch touch-screen Mac laptops in late 2026 or early 2027, featuring OLED displays while retaining a full trackpad and keyboard to support both touch and traditional inputs (source: Bloomberg via @StockMKTNewz, Oct 16, 2025). For trading, the stated window indicates any unit or revenue contribution would begin no earlier than late 2026, guiding expectations toward the 2026-2027 Mac product cycle if the timeline is maintained (source: Bloomberg via @StockMKTNewz, Oct 16, 2025). The post includes no mention of crypto or blockchain features, implying any crypto-market read-through would be indirect via broader tech risk sentiment rather than product integration (source: @StockMKTNewz post referencing Bloomberg, Oct 16, 2025).
