CTCP Mía đường Sơn La (SLS) plans to pay about VND 98 billion in cash dividends for fiscal 2025–2026 at 100%, or VND 10,000 per share, with a last registration date of November 3, 2026 and expected payment on November 25, 2026. This is below the 150% rate for fiscal 2024–2025 (about VND 146.9 billion) and the 200% rate for 2023–2024 (nearly VND 195.84 billion). For fiscal 2025–2026, net revenue was nearly VND 1,080 billion, down about 7%, while profit after tax exceeded VND 191 billion, down nearly 49%. In the first quarter of fiscal 2026–2027 (July 1 to September 30, 2026), revenue reached VND 268.5 billion, down 10.2%, and profit after tax was VND 22.56 billion, down 72.3%. The company attributes this to oversupply in the sugar market, smuggling and trade fraud, and imported high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS), which have pushed down selling prices and narrowed gross margins.

- EU Weighs Extending China Import Restraints Beyond Cars
EU trade ministers discussed on Oct. 23 extending negotiations with China beyond automobiles to sectors such as chemicals and machinery, following an understanding on Chinese hybrid-vehicle exports. The EU's goods trade deficit with China reached 359.8 billion euros ($402.7 billion) in 2025, as imports from China rose 6.4 percent and exports to China fell 6.5 percent. The understanding sets an annual quota of 350,000 Chinese hybrids, which von der Leyen said would cut exports by about 45 percent, though China's Commerce Ministry noted the EU imported 302,000 Chinese hybrids in 2025 and said the quota would allow exports above that level. Greek Deputy Foreign Minister Haris Theoharis warned that negotiating one sector at a time would be far too slow to reduce the imbalance, while the Commission would propose a new instrument to restrict market access more quickly.
- India Eases Silver Imports as China Banks Step Back
The author estimates that US and Perth mint sales and Indian silver fund buying totaled roughly 3.6 to 3.8 million ounces in September, a mildly positive sign for silver. India has eased silver import rules ahead of the Dhanteras and Diwali festivals, while China's banks are stepping back from leveraged retail silver trading. Silver fell about 6% on October 14 after a hot US inflation report, and Kitco's latest reading put silver near $57.98 and gold near $4,141.01. Indian silver fund inflows rose 55% in September to Rs 1,974 crore, while silver imports fell 49% from a year earlier to $665.08 million. Sprott Physical Silver Trust units still traded at a 5.40% discount to their metal value on October 21, indicating cautious investor demand.
- How Import Tariffs Could Impact Kansas Grocery Bills
Many staple foods in U.S. kitchens, such as coffee, orange juice, fruit, seafood, beef and chocolate, rely heavily on imports, making grocery prices sensitive to trade policy. The article cites Federal Reserve research finding that the tariffs imposed in 2025 gradually pushed up retail prices as higher import costs passed through supply chains. After the Supreme Court invalidated IEEPA tariffs in February 2026, a temporary 10% Section 122 surcharge expired in July 2026 and was replaced by Section 301 tariffs of 10% to 12.5%. According to the Penn Wharton Budget Model, the average effective tariff rate was 6.7% as of July 2026, nearly triple the 2.3% before Trump returned to office in January 2025. The U.S. imported over $219 billion in agricultural products in 2025, many of which cannot be grown domestically at sufficient scale.
- VinMetal partners with Danieli to produce rail steel for high-speed and urban railways in Vietnam
VinMetal, part of Vingroup, has signed a contract with Italy's Danieli & C. Officine Meccaniche S.p.A. to supply core equipment for the rail and section steel rolling line at its Hà Tĩnh steel complex. Under the contract, Danieli will design, manufacture, supply and commission equipment for a line with capacity of over 700,000 tonnes per year. Danieli has more than 100 years of experience, has delivered over 1,000 projects, and has supplied technology to rail producers such as Voestalpine and Mechel. The products are aimed at high-speed rail, urban rail, bridges, ports and logistics projects, helping secure domestic supply and reduce reliance on imports. The Vũng Áng Economic Zone complex is designed to reach about 6 million tonnes per year in phase 1, with plans to expand to 20 million tonnes per year in phase 2.
- Europe seeks to further restrict imports from China
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said the EU will propose further measures to curb imports from China, on top of an agreement to halve hybrid vehicle shipments to Europe, to reduce a goods trade deficit of more than 1 billion euros (US$1.12 billion) a day. EU leaders backed the move, and French President Emmanuel Macron said the bloc should focus on chemicals, plastics and ferrous alloys. The Commission plans to propose a new tool in December that would allow restricting access to the single market, along with a solidarity mechanism to support countries or industries facing unfair treatment or retaliation. Last year the goods trade deficit with China was 360 billion euros (US$410 billion), while total trade including services reached 880 billion euros (nearly US$1,000 billion).
- Eurozone Trade Balance Swings To Deficit
Eurostat data showed the euro area posted a trade deficit of EUR 16.1 billion in August, compared with a surplus of EUR 10.7 billion in July and a deficit of EUR 1.7 billion a year earlier. The swing was driven mainly by a sharp acceleration in imports, which rose 16.7% from a year earlier after 9.1% in July. Exports of goods also grew, up 9.9% year over year, though this was still slower than the import increase.

- Down Roughly 50% From Its Highs, Is Netflix Stock Finally a Buy?
Netflix (NFLX) shares have fallen roughly 50% from their all-time closing high of $133.91 on June 30, 2025, following the company's third-quarter report. Before the report, Netflix fired its chief content officer and announced its largest layoff since 2022, hiring former Disney executive Peter Rice as it struggled to produce U.S. blockbuster shows. In Q3, revenue rose 12% to $12.87 billion and adjusted EPS jumped 49% to $0.87, above the $0.82 analyst estimate compiled by LSEG. Netflix guided Q4 revenue to $13.4 billion but trimmed full-year revenue to $51.1 billion and cut its ad revenue forecast from $3 billion to $2.7 billion due to a slower ad rollout. The article argues that at a forward P/E of about 17 times 2027 estimates, the valuation now looks attractive.
- Police and protesters clash in Paris as demonstrations break out across Europe
Demonstrations took place in many European cities on Saturday, from Milan to Madrid, while in Paris clashes erupted near the march's endpoint at Porte de Vincennes, where police fired tear gas and used water cannons. The Interior Ministry put nationwide turnout at 410,000, including 110,000 in Paris, and police used tear gas in Lyon, Clermont-Ferrand and Strasbourg and water cannons in Nice and Nantes. Crowd estimates in Marseille differed sharply: police counted 17,000 while the CGT union said 100,000. Education Ministry figures showed 15.4 million teaching hours lost in the 2024-25 school year because absent teachers were not replaced, equal to 7.5% of scheduled time. The unrest is testing President Macron's authority before voters choose his successor in May, and the far-right National Rally has urged people to channel their anger into votes for it.
- U . S . Senate candidate Peltola calls the economy the only plot line that matters
Former U.S. Rep. Mary Peltola, a Democrat, has made the economy her top priority in her close race against Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan in Alaska, where spending has topped $100 million. She says rising prices for fuel, food, health insurance, utilities and rent are voters' main concern, and has said the Iran war should not progress in order to ease energy costs. Her proposals include eliminating income taxes for Americans earning less than $92,000 a year by raising taxes on the ultra-wealthy, increasing the Child Tax Credit and making Social Security solvent. Economists say Alaskans are feeling squeezed by record-high diesel and heating fuel prices, and Peltola cited a Selawik household with a $1,500 electric bill. Sullivan, who has backed the president's policies and argues he has cut taxes and expanded oil drilling, has an estimated net worth of $8.2 million, partly from holdings in RPM International.
- Abbott Laboratories vs . UnitedHealth : Does Health Innovation or Health Insurance Make for a Better Stock to Buy ?
The article compares Abbott Laboratories (ABT), a maker of medical devices, diagnostics and nutrition products, with UnitedHealth Group (UNH), which runs the UnitedHealthcare insurance arm and Optum health services. In FY 2025 Abbott's revenue rose about 6% to $44.3 billion, but net income fell to about $6.5 billion from $13.4 billion, largely due to a $385 million settlement. UnitedHealth's revenue grew nearly 12% to about $447.6 billion, while net income dropped to about $12.1 billion from $14.4 billion, a net margin of about 2.7%. Medicaid and Medicare premiums made up 44% of UnitedHealth's 2025 revenue, exposing it to government policy, while Abbott faces FDA oversight and debt from its $20 billion acquisition of Exact Sciences. Free cash flow was about $7.4 billion for Abbott and about $16.1 billion for UnitedHealth in FY 2025.
- Voters angry about high prices may get little relief from the next Congress
The article argues that voters expecting a new Democratic Congress to lower prices may be disappointed, since the main drivers of inflation are the Iran war's impact on energy prices, the AI boom and President Donald Trump's trade policies. Even if Democrats win control of the House and Senate on Nov. 3, they are unlikely to end the war or Trump's tariffs. Consumer prices are up 30 percent since the start of the pandemic, three times the increase of the prior six years, and over the past year they rose more than twice as fast as typical earnings, according to the BLS. Economists surveyed by Bloomberg expect inflation to slow to a 2.4 percent annual rate by fall 2027, but prices would still be rising from already high levels. Goldman Sachs expects leading hyperscalers including Alphabet, Microsoft and Meta to spend a combined $1.2 trillion in 2027, up from around $800 billion this year, while the federal budget deficit of almost $2 trillion also contributes to rising prices.
- Paraguay Joins Pax Silica , the US AI Supply Chain Pact
On 23 October, Paraguay became the 26th signatory of the US-led Pax Silica declaration, a pact to build AI and chip supply chains among trusted partners. Washington and Asunción pledged to use Paraguay's critical minerals and hydropower for AI infrastructure, tying the small ally to the US effort to reduce dependence on China. A separate 15-year power contract signed on 22 October covers up to 286 megawatts for an AI data centre at US$48.91 to US$56.39 per megawatt hour. No projects, deadlines, investments or companies have been named, and the declaration is a statement of intent rather than a treaty. The first 6 megawatts of data centre power are due on 1 December.
