- The sorrow of Europe's “big brother” economy: Bonds keep selling off heavily after a “turbulent weekend”
French 10-year government bond yields rose 0.14 percentage points to 4.93% after a turbulent weekend, while the spread over German bonds returned to 1.47 percentage points. Nationwide protests over rising living costs and student education conditions turned into widespread rioting and looting; the government said at least 3,000 shops and businesses were looted, and the French retail federation estimated damages could reach “several hundred million euros.” More than 2,500 people are under formal investigation, 67 of them detained, and several cities have imposed curfews. President Macron rejected Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez’s resignation offer, even though Nuñez admitted police were deployed too thinly for protests of over 550,000 people, against an expected 200,000. Opposition politicians and the mayors of Paris and Marseille criticized the government for letting police lose control of the situation.
- President Donald Trump Claims, "We Don't Have Inflation, and Tariffs Don't Cause Inflation," but a New Report Strongly Disagrees
Although the stock market has posted strong returns under President Trump, the article argues his inflation-driving policies may be the biggest threat to the AI-driven bull market. A New York Federal Reserve report by three economists finds that by February 2026, tariffs had added 2.9 percentage points to goods price inflation, and each percentage point increase in average tariffs lifted consumer prices by about a quarter of a point after one year. Beyond tariffs, the Iran war and the ongoing closure of the Strait of Hormuz have pushed fuel prices sharply higher, with fuel oil up 74.0% and gasoline up 34.2% over the past year, while overall CPI rose 3.7%. The article warns that persistent inflation could prompt the Fed to raise rates more aggressively, slowing AI infrastructure investment and sending stocks lower.
- Bitcoin ETFs just saw their biggest day in a month thanks entirely to BlackRock
U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs took in $526.6 million on Monday, the largest daily net inflow in nearly a month, driven entirely by BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT), which pulled in $665.2 million, its biggest daily inflow since Oct. 7 last year, according to SoSoValue data. Fidelity's FBTC lost $83.6 million and Grayscale's GBTC shed $54.9 million, while the remaining funds recorded no net flows. The inflow more than erased last week's $228.5 million of withdrawals, but funds remain about $90.5 million in net outflows for October, according to CoinDesk calculations. Ether funds moved the opposite way, losing $103.3 million in their fourth consecutive session of outflows, with BlackRock's ETHA accounting for $95.4 million of that.

Rates for terms under 6 months stayed unchanged, including 2.1% for 1 to under 3 months and 2.4% for 3 to under 6 months. The move came as banks followed the State Bank of Vietnam's guidance to cut deposit rates by at least 0.5 percentage points for terms of 6 months and longer, and Vietcombank and Agribank were among those reducing rates.
- IVV vs. SPY: Which S&P 500 ETF Is the Better Buy for Long-Term Investors?
The article compares two ETFs that track the S&P 500, iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV) and State Street SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY), which have nearly identical holdings. The main difference is the expense ratio: IVV charges 0.03% a year, one-third of SPY's 0.09%, and its distribution yield is about 1.1% versus 1% for SPY. SPY's high liquidity remains valuable for active traders. The article concludes that IVV is the better choice for long-term investors, since lower costs can compound over time.
