7%PepsiCo entered Europe's public bond market on Friday with a €1 billion ($1.12 billion) two-part deal, one day after cutting its profit outlook due to mounting costs in North America. The deal comprises a three-year tranche and a nine-year tranche, each worth €500 million. The shorter part is priced at around 60 basis points above mid-swaps, whilst the longer slice is marketed at around 105 basis points. The company lowered its earnings growth outlook on Thursday, citing weakness in both its beverage and snack businesses. Chief executive officer Ramon Laguarta said the company doesn't "feel good about the beverage business". Sales volumes of North American beverages have fallen 3% so far this year. This marks PepsiCo's second euro issuance this year.
Deutsche Bank upgraded Netflix to Buy on 29 September, arguing investors focus too much on US viewing habits while overlooking international growth. Analyst Bryan Kraft noted non-English titles now account for over a third of Netflix viewing, with time spent on the platform rising abroad in each of the past four half-year periods. The upgrade comes despite a price target cut to $95 and reduced profit estimates, making it primarily a valuation call. Netflix now trades at roughly 18 times Deutsche Bank's 2027 earnings estimate, down from approximately 40 times at its June 2025 peak. The bank believes Netflix's production scale—over half its content now originates outside the US—will protect its global position. US and Canada revenue represented less than half of second-quarter sales at $5.4 billion of $12.6 billion total.

Its 2026 capacity list includes 75 megawatts in Columbus, Ohio, and 50 megawatts in the US Northeast.
