- Indeed, God does not alter the affairs of a people until they alter their own affairs.
The letter to the American people argues that the U.S. launched a war against Iran in violation of international law, with strikes that killed 168 schoolchildren and teachers at an elementary school in Minab and attacked the offices of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, killing him and several family members, including his 14-month-old granddaughter. It says the war has killed more than 3600 Iranians, mostly civilians including 400 children, and that eight universities, three hospitals and eight schools were bombed. The authors contend that Iran has won because the United States and Israel failed to achieve their declared objectives, apart from damaging several nuclear-related buildings and a limited number of air-defense sites. They also claim the U.S. government is withholding facts from the American public, who bear the cost of these wars, and promise to address questions such as why Iran has prevailed and how the conflict will end.
- US weighs fresh strikes on Iran ; Tehran warns of
The New York Times reports that the United States and Israel have drawn up plans for a short, intensive strike on Iran's energy infrastructure, nuclear facilities, and missile and drone arsenal, possibly after the midterm elections. Trump has reportedly considered using the 22,000-pound GBU-43/B 'Mother of All Bombs' against the deeply buried Pickaxe Mountain nuclear site, though specialists doubt it could destroy the facility, and a planned attack was postponed shortly before it was due to begin earlier this month. Iran's IRGC spokesperson Hossein Mohebbi responded that Tehran would show the 'Father of All Bombs', without giving details. The US is assembling a large force, including three aircraft carriers, expected to be fully in place by early November, and Washington may be using the threat as leverage in talks over Iran's nuclear programme and the Strait of Hormuz. The report notes that earlier US-Israeli strikes from February to April drove up global energy prices and inflation.
- US weighs fresh strikes on Iran ; Tehran warns of
According to The New York Times, the US and Israel have drawn up plans for a short, intensive operation against Iran's energy infrastructure, nuclear facilities and missile and drone arsenal, with US forces expected to be fully deployed by early November, including three aircraft carriers. Some US officials believe a further round of attacks could push Iran's economy to the brink and force diplomatic concessions after nearly eight months of conflict. Trump had considered using the 22,000-pound 'Mother of All Bombs' against the deeply buried Pickaxe Mountain nuclear site, though weapons specialists doubt it could destroy the site, and he postponed a recent attack shortly before it was due to begin. IRGC spokesperson Hossein Mohebbi warned that Iran would show the US a 'Father of All Bombs' without giving details. A White House official said the administration does not comment on military plans 'that may or may not exist'.

- Iran Regime Internal Power Struggle Deepens as Factions Clash Over War and Negotiations
Factions within Iran's ruling establishment are clashing sharply over the war with the United States, diplomatic negotiations and domestic management. After hard-line cleric Hamid Rasaee was imprisoned following a complaint by Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, 35 lawmakers signed a motion seeking the impeachment of Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi. Regime supporters targeted former President Hassan Rouhani and former Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif at nighttime rallies, with some threatening a fate like that of former President Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, whose death in a swimming pool in 2017 remains controversial. The core dispute is whether to reach an agreement with Washington or keep confronting it, and the infighting has spread to economic policy, internet policy and the Central Bank. The article argues that the divisions show the regime struggling to contain disputes, though they do not by themselves signal imminent collapse.

- Musk's wants to merge SpaceX and Tesla: Here's what to know
Musk said SpaceX and Tesla have formed special committees to study a merger, which would be worth about $3.5 trillion combined and would be the largest corporate deal in history. SpaceX, valued at about $2 trillion after a record listing this year, absorbed Musk's AI startup xAI in February, while Tesla is valued at about $1.5 trillion. Musk holds about 82 percent of SpaceX's voting power but only about 20 percent at Tesla. Dan Ives puts the odds of a deal at 90 percent by early 2027, though Musk called the requirement of a majority of all Tesla shares 'quite a high hurdle'. Loyal retail investors hold an estimated 25 to 27 percent of Tesla shares, and legal obstacles appear slight because both companies moved their incorporation to Texas from Delaware.
- CoreWeave and Nebius Stocks Are Crashing. Time to Buy the Dip?
Shares of Nebius and CoreWeave each fell 25% in the week of October 12 to 16. The sell-off stems from the yield on CoreWeave's debt in the secondary market surging to 15%, versus roughly 5% on Treasuries, which pushes the debt into 'distressed' territory and signals doubts about its ability to meet obligations. Nebius sold off in sympathy as a fellow neocloud company. The bigger concern is that both companies must keep issuing debt to fund data centers, and if yields are high at issuance, the assumption of nearly unlimited cheap capital could be challenged. The author says it is unclear whether now is the time to buy.
- Disney’s multiplatform Super Bowl plan frustrates ABC affiliates
ABC station owners are irritated that Disney is airing the Super Bowl across several platforms, including Disney+, ESPN2, NFL Network and ESPNU, even though the game is already on ABC and ESPN. A station group CEO estimates that the combined platforms could cut broadcast ad revenue by up to 35% compared with last year. Local affiliates typically earn about 3% of annual ad revenue from the Super Bowl and pay network owners reverse retransmission fees, but Disney+ lacks geofenced ad insertion, so affiliates cannot sell ads to streaming viewers. Disney says national commercials will be identical on all platforms and that streaming major live events is standard industry practice. Super Bowl LX drew 125.6 million viewers in February.
- Nasdaq sell-off: A momentum unwind 'for the record books'
Matt Stucky, chief portfolio manager for equities at Northwestern Mutual Wealth Management, calls Thursday’s sell-off in the Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) a momentum unwind “for the record books.” He says the market spent the first half of 2026 driven by a beta and momentum trade led by semiconductors, but in the third quarter, as rates rose, money shifted into quality stocks. He does not think the sell-off is justified by fundamentals, arguing that institutional portfolio managers swapping out of factor positions can drag down whole baskets of stocks. In semiconductors, spot rental rates for Nvidia Blackwell chips are higher than a month ago, showing tightening compute supply, even as financing costs rise and investors worry about neocloud business models and the rising cost of insuring their bonds.
- Meta’s deal to keep Zuckerberg in California adds fuel to wealth tax debate ahead of election
Meta says Mark Zuckerberg will remain in California for eight years and has created a new stock plan that could help cover his taxes if Proposition 40, a 5% tax on Californians worth over $1 billion, passes on Election Day on Nov. 3. According to a filing released with its third-quarter earnings, Meta will issue non-voting Class C shares starting in January, and Zuckerberg can sell or transfer up to 20% of the shares granted to him without affecting his majority voting control. The filing says Zuckerberg’s leadership is crucial to the company’s growth and its AI ambitions, including Meta Superintelligence Labs. Most of the tech industry opposes the measure, while a recent Citrin-Politico poll found 46% in favor and 43% against, suggesting it may fall short of the majority support it needs.
- Dune launches real-time data feeds covering 200 onchain trading venues
Blockchain analytics platform Dune has launched real-time market data feeds covering more than 200 onchain trading venues, aiming to bring this data into the systems of traditional financial institutions. The feeds draw trade data from 12 blockchains, including Ethereum, Solana and Base, about one second after execution, covering both spot trading on decentralized exchanges and perpetual futures on Hyperliquid and Lighter. Early clients include quant funds, market makers, asset managers and bank trading desks, which use the data to assess liquidity and compare prices, though Dune did not name them. Meanwhile, the tokenized stock market has grown sharply, with distributed value reaching $3.58 billion, but 16 companies, including Microsoft, Alphabet and Goldman Sachs, have objected to their shares being traded on OKXICE’s proposed platform, and liquidity remains fragmented.
