In its third-quarter 2026 earnings call on October 20, 2026, Mercantile Bank reported net income of $24.1 million, or $1.39 per diluted share. Management is keeping its net interest margin durable by repricing fixed-rate assets and lowering funding costs rather than relying on Federal Reserve policy. The bank is hiring experienced commercial bankers and adding clients in Southeast Michigan as larger competitors face operational shifts. It also cut high-cost brokered certificates of deposit by roughly $180 million over the past year, while integration of Eastern Michigan Bank continues.

- Mortgage rates drop for the first time in 2 months, but demand still falls further
Total mortgage application volume fell 5.3% last week from the previous week, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association, even as the average 30-year fixed rate dropped to 7.41% from 7.50%, the first decrease in over two months. Lower rates did not lift activity: refinance applications fell 2% week over week but were 59% below a year earlier, while purchase applications dropped 7% weekly and 18% year over year. The ARM share held at 10.5%, with ARM rates almost a full percentage point below the 30-year fixed rate. A separate Mortgage News Daily survey showed rates barely moved early this week, and its chief operating officer cautioned against relying on the oil price correlation, which has been unreliable for more than a month.
- OCC's final rule to start fresh in weighing stablecoin rewards against GENIUS Act ban
The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency issued the first final rule under the GENIUS Act on Wednesday, setting out how stablecoin issuers operate, including their third-party relationships with exchanges, and the rule is scheduled to take effect on January 18. The act bans issuers from paying rewards made “solely” for holding stablecoins, but the OCC has not offered examples and gives no safe harbor for existing exchange reward programs, which must win its case-by-case approval. The agency said a reward made at least in part for other reasons could fall outside the ban. Banks view such rewards as a threat to customer deposits and lobbied for further changes in the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act, which did not advance in a key Senate vote last month. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent called the rule a clear, practical foundation for private-sector innovation.
- Hot Bonds as Bank Interest Rates Struggle to Cool Down
Many banks are cutting deposit rates under State Bank of Vietnam guidance, yet the bond market still features high-yield issuances. PVcomBank completed a VND 200 billion private placement at 10.5% per year on September 30, the highest bank bond rate in many years. In the third quarter, banks issued about VND 120,000 billion in bonds, up 11.8% year on year, with the bank group's average rate at 8.85% per year according to S&I Ratings. On October 21, six more banks cut deposit rates, bringing the total to 22 of 46 commercial banks, mostly by 0.5% per year for terms of 6 months and above. Expert PGS.TS Phạm Văn Phương warned that without transparency, bond yields could become a new benchmark and push deposit rates higher.

- France proposes liability for crypto exchanges offering DeFi access
French authorities, including the Treasury, AMF, central bank and ACPR, proposed revising MiCA so that crypto-asset service providers (CASPs) would be liable for certain client incidents where they actively facilitated access to DeFi. Platforms would need to vet DeFi protocols before offering access, monitor them for vulnerabilities and suspicious activity, and back certification of protocols and smart contracts. For self-custodial wallets, France opposes blanket certification requirements for developers and favors voluntary certification for advanced wallets integrating DeFi. The proposals would also transfer supervision of significant CASPs to ESMA and lower the threshold of 15 million average daily active EU users. A report to EU lawmakers, due by June 30, 2027, will draw on the consultation responses.
- Rocket Lab Just Had Another Setback. Here’s Why I’m Finally Buying the Stock Anyway
Rocket Lab delayed its Neutron rocket for the second time this year after a manufacturing flaw was found in a carbon composite tank dome in the first stage, sending the stock sharply lower to about two-thirds below its May all-time high. The first Neutron launch is now expected in 2027, instead of the fourth quarter of 2026. Q2 revenue reached $234 million, up 62% year over year, and backlog stood at $2.36 billion, while the company agreed to acquire Iridium Communications for about $8 billion including debt. The author says the stock is still not cheap at about 40 times sales and remains loss-making, but he is starting a small position and will add as milestones are reached.
