North Korean leader Kim Jong-un visited China on Saturday, October 24, his first trip there in over a year, according to state media in both countries. He and Wang Huning took part in events marking the 76th anniversary of China's People's Volunteers entering the Korean War, laying a wreath and visiting a memorial in Dandong. According to KCNA, Xi Jinping did not appear at the events but issued a special instruction for Wang Huning to host a banquet welcoming Kim. The New York Times says the visit signals strengthening China-North Korea ties despite international sanctions on Pyongyang, which is also deepening relations with Russia. Kim has visited China many times since 2018, and diplomats and analysts speculate he may attend the informal APEC leaders' summit in Shenzhen next month, though it is unclear whether Beijing has extended an invitation.

- Drift exploiter sends $109M in Ether to Tornado Cash in 2 days
Wallets linked to the Drift exploiter sent another 18,800 ETH (about $46 million) to Tornado Cash on Wednesday, bringing the two-day total to 44,510 ETH, or $109 million, according to Onchain Lens. These transfers account for nearly 37% of the $295 million stolen from the Solana-based DEX in April, making the funds harder to trace. The labelled wallets still hold 56,569 ETH, worth about $138 million, per Arkham data. DefiLlama ranks the attack as this year's third-largest crypto hack, and security consultant Mandiant attributed it to a North Korean threat group.
- Russia Has Transferred Non-Nuclear Submarine Technology to Strategic Partner
A C4ADS report says Russia has transferred submarine technical documents and test materials to China since the 2010s, with the exchanges continuing after Russia launched its full-scale war in Ukraine in February 2022. The cooperation reportedly covers noise reduction, non-nuclear propulsion and hull design. Commercial records show Rubin Central Design Bureau, a sanctioned subsidiary of state-owned USC, made 12 deliveries worth over $80 million to PLA and CSOI procurement bodies between August 2015 and April 2023. An expert says some documents, including cavitation tests, suggest Rubin was helping CSOI test the effectiveness of noise-reduction technology for Chinese submarines.
- What Is Citigroup (C) Signaling With China Talks And Its AI Reset?
Citigroup (C) was the subject of formal talks in Bangkok between U.S. and Chinese officials on its access to China's financial market and its operating permissions there. At the same time, the bank expanded and reshaped its central AI leadership group, hiring senior talent from Google and moving several executives into new roles. The article says broader China permissions would support the services and cross-border payments engine, but regulatory risk remains because the policymakers being courted also enforce the sanctions and controls analysts already flag as a vulnerability. The centralized AI team, restricted agent access to accounts and new responsible AI unit raise questions about whether compliance, infrastructure and costs can keep pace. Citigroup has a market value of about $205.7 billion.
- EU Summit in Brussels: European Powers Intensify War Drive Against Russia
The EU summit in Brussels on Thursday and Friday reached no decision on new demands for billions in aid to Ukraine, and the Commission was tasked with developing financing options. Zelensky put Ukraine's 2027 war costs at €155 billion and sought at least €70 billion in additional European support, while the EU has already set in motion a €90 billion loan for 2026 and 2027. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said preparations were under way for a 22nd sanctions package against Russia. The dispute with Washington also involves about €210 billion in frozen Russian central bank assets in Europe, and Chancellor Friedrich Merz rejected using part of these assets in talks with Moscow. Citing a Kiel Institute study, the article says the German government's Ukraine support, including commitments, is around €100 billion, and argues these moves amount to a dangerous escalation.
- Russia ready to resume three-way talks with Ukraine and US after November 4
On 25/10, Russian presidential foreign policy aide Yuri Ushakov said Russia is ready to resume three-way talks with Ukraine and the US after November 4, but does not expect much from the meeting. The statement followed remarks by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky about a new round of talks expected in the first half of November, possibly in Abu Dhabi. Ushakov said a peace agreement “still needs to be finalized.” Earlier, US envoy Steve Witkoff met Vladimir Putin in St. Petersburg for three hours and said discussions would continue at the technical level. Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump has recently criticized Zelensky strongly, threatened to cut intelligence sharing with Kyiv and loosen sanctions on Russian oil exports.

- Ministry of Construction Tightens Progress of Public Investment Disbursement
The Ministry of Construction has directed project owners and management boards to tighten control over the pace, volume and value of public investment disbursement in 2026, with just over 2 months left in the year. Operations must follow the “6 clears” principle: clear people, tasks, timelines, responsibilities, products and authority. Project owners must draft detailed construction schedules, specify completed volumes, disbursement values and plans for transferring capital between projects. Contractors on delayed projects must immediately resolve land clearance, materials and weather issues, with progress reviewed weekly and monthly. Disbursement results will be a criterion for assessing performance, and delayed contractors will be sanctioned, publicly listed on the National Bidding Network System and reported to the Ministry.
- Calpers pulls back from big tech as AI jitters deepen neocloud sell-off
California's pension fund Calpers, the world's fifth-largest with more than $600 billion in assets under management, cut the combined number of shares it directly held in the Magnificent Seven (Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon, Nvidia, Meta Platforms and Tesla) by 26% in the first half of 2026, according to FT calculations from regulatory filings. The fund is increasing its private equity exposure to diversify beyond a few market leaders, and deputy chief investment officer Anton Orlich told the FT that public equity valuations look expensive and tech giants could underperform other investments. The backdrop includes SpaceX raising $40 billion in debt to buy GPUs for AI computing, while Elon Musk warned that financing had largely dried up for companies without substantial revenue outside AI data centers and predicted consolidation among neocloud providers. In pre-market trading on Monday, CoreWeave (CRWV), Cipher Digital and IREN all fell.
- 1 Popular Cryptocurrency to Buy Before It Soars by 873%, According to Cathie Wood's Ark Invest
Bitcoin fell to a 52-week low of $58,566 in July, 53% below its all-time high of $124,773, then rebounded to about $81,800 by Oct. 23. Ark Invest, founded by Cathie Wood, forecasts Bitcoin's market cap could reach $16 trillion by 2030, implying $796,000 per coin and 873% upside from current levels. Its two main drivers are institutional funds allocating about 2.5% of their $200 trillion in managed assets, and Bitcoin capturing 20% to 60% of gold's $28 trillion market cap as "digital gold." The author argues the forecast may be too ambitious: Bitcoin has fallen 13% since the start of 2025 while gold has risen 57%, and a $16 trillion valuation would exceed the combined market caps of Nvidia, Apple and Alphabet. Although Bitcoin's recent recovery could continue, the author considers a rally to $796,000 per coin unrealistic.
- Ophir Mobilizes Crews for Surface Exploration at the Breccia Gold Project in Idaho
Ophir Metals Corp. has mobilized crews to restart exploration at its Breccia Gold Property, a 52-claim, 1,043-acre (422 ha) land package in Idaho's Blackbird Mining District about 40 km southwest of Salmon. The company is focusing on extending the Breccia Gold Zone north-northwest, where a new mineralized breccia outcrop was found about 800 m from the central zone, possibly a splay off the Meadows Fault Zone. A 2021 sample program collected 16 samples, including one returning 25.2 g/t Au, from breccia outcrops extending at least 200 m. Previously reported surface samples include 84.3 g/t Au and 31.3 g/t Ag on the Meadows Fault Trend, 57.6 g/t Au and 19.6 g/t Ag in the East Breccia Zone, and 16.4 g/t Au and 15.1 g/t Ag on the Musgrove Trend. CSAMT and magnetic surveys show a continuous structural corridor to the northwest, which the company says remains open along strike and at depth.
- Onyx Gold Drills 166.0 Meters of 0.7 g/t Gold at Argus Main and Extends Argus Trend to 2.6 Kilometers with New Gold Intercepts at Big Break and JM
Onyx Gold reports assays from 31 additional drill holes at the Argus Gold System and along the Pipestone Fault corridor within its 100%-owned Munro-Croesus Project, 75 km east of Timmins, Ontario. Argus Main hole MC26-343 intersected 0.7 g/t Au over 166.0 m, including 1.6 g/t Au over 21.7 m, and gold has now been identified across an approximately 2.6 km trend. First-pass drilling at Big Break, about 700 m southeast of Argus Main, returned 0.9 g/t Au over 11.0 m in MC26-295, while JM, about 1.2 km southeast, returned 18.8 g/t Au over 2.3 m in MC26-350, including 25.1 g/t Au over 1.2 m. Onyx controls about 8 km of prospective strike, of which about 4 km has been drill tested. Approximately 91% of the 110,000 m program is complete, but results have been released for only 146 of 264 completed holes (55%), with four rigs still active.
- Prediction: Broadcom Will Be a $4.5 Trillion Company by 2030
The author argues Broadcom could reach a $4.5 trillion market cap by 2030, from just over $1.5 trillion today. The thesis rests on rising demand for Broadcom's custom AI processors (XPUs) from customers such as Alphabet's Google, Meta Platforms, Anthropic and OpenAI, with XPU shipments up 3.5x and AI networking revenue up 2.5x year over year in fiscal Q3 2026. Broadcom expects AI revenue of $58 billion in fiscal 2026 and $230 billion in fiscal 2028, with EPS that could exceed $30.00 in fiscal 2028. Assuming 30% annual EPS growth in fiscal 2029 and 2030 to reach $51.36, and a 20x multiple, the article estimates a share price of $1,027, just over 3x current levels. The stock trades at 17 times forward earnings, a slight discount to the Nasdaq-100's 21.5.
