LPBank received the 'Outstanding Digital Transformation Enterprise or Public Service Unit' award at the Vietnam Digital Awards 2026 for Lumi, its AI customer experience platform. Lumi works as a 24/7 AI assistant for the call center, handling voice and non-voice requests in real time and automatically performing tasks such as lookups, card locking and password resets, while routing complex cases to human agents. After more than 15 months of operation, it has handled millions of calls; the time to identify issues fell from about three minutes to under 10 seconds, and the missed-call rate dropped from nearly 9% to 0%. LPBank says Lumi marks a shift from traditional call centers to an intelligent model aimed at 'Zero Description Service', where customers no longer need to re-describe their issues.

- [UPDATE] CNN projects Democrats will take the House from Republicans, President Trump denies responsibility
Democrat Chris Pappas won the New Hampshire Senate seat, defeating Republican John Sununu. AP projects Democrat Mark Warner will win re-election in Virginia over Bert Mizusawa, while Debbie Wasserman Schultz won the Florida 20th district House seat. CNN and AP project Jon Ossoff will be re-elected in Georgia over Mike Collins, but a runoff on December 1 would follow if no candidate wins a majority. Democrats also won Senate races in New Jersey, Illinois, Delaware, Massachusetts and Rhode Island. Early projections are not final results, and some close races may take hours or even days to decide.
- Democrats claim control of the US Senate
According to the AP, Democrats have won control of the Senate after Josh Turek won the Iowa race, bringing their total, including independents who caucus with them, to 51 seats. The shift could change the path of the stalled CLARITY Act, reshape committee leadership and bring closer scrutiny of Trump-linked crypto businesses and regulators' decisions. The CLARITY Act failed a Senate procedural vote 49 to 50 in September, and if it is not passed by January, the next Congress starts from scratch. Jerome de Tychey, president of Ethereum France, said nothing will pass without cross-partisan support and warned that the biggest risk for US crypto is becoming a partisan issue.
- Why Shake Shack Stock Jumped 20% in October
Shake Shack shares rose 20% in October according to S&P Global Market Intelligence, amid a broader rotation into restaurant stocks as investors sold AI stocks. The gain was supported by plans to enter Brazil through a licensing partnership, several positive analyst notes, including Morgan Stanley raising its price target from $74 to $79 and UBS lifting its target from $68 to $73, and a late-month jump tied to Nelson Peltz's buyout proposal for Wendy's. Shake Shack will report third-quarter earnings on Thursday, with analysts expecting revenue to grow 16% to $426.3 million and adjusted EPS to fall from $0.36 to $0.34. Investors will watch same-store sales growth and margins, as the company has struggled to turn revenue growth into profit growth.
- Financial markets turbulent, safe-haven assets gain favor, except gold
Volatility from the AI rally has pushed investors toward US Treasuries, the dollar, the Swiss franc and the yen, but gold has not attracted inflows. Gold fell below 4,000 USD/ounce, its lowest level in a year, while central bank gold purchases rose 42% in the third quarter to 321 tonnes. Since the US and Israel first attacked Iran, gold has lost about a quarter of its value and is down 9% year to date in USD terms, the weakest of 14 major asset classes in Bank of America's ranking. Standard Chartered finds the correlation between gold and the S&P 500 has risen to 0.48 on a three-month rolling basis and 0.69 over one month. The bank's analysts say that in the short term, the need to raise cash could lead investors to sell gold rather than buy more.
- Over 2.5 million tax codes stuck: Debt write-off is not enough, a streamlined dissolution path is needed
The Ministry of Finance says that as of 23 October 2026, over 2.5 million taxpayers had ceased operating without completing procedures to close their tax codes or no longer operated at their registered address, including about 643,000 in status 03 and nearly 1.88 million in status 06. The ministry proposes waiving business licence fees and late-payment interest and reducing penalties for late tax filings, but lawyer Nguyen Van Duoc argues the bigger bottleneck is reconstructing years of accounting records, which is nearly infeasible for firms dormant for 10-20 years. He proposes allowing retroactive dissolution dates tied to when the tax authority determines a firm is no longer operating, alongside a streamlined dissolution process. As an example, a firm inactive since 2007 faced more than VND 78.2 million in charges that could fall to VND 6.9 million under the draft. VTCA proposes classifying files and handling cases based on data.
- Asian FX gains as dollar falls on U.S. midterm results, yuan weakens on PBOC move
Most Asian currencies strengthened on Wednesday as the dollar retreated amid uncertainty over U.S. midterm results, while the yuan stayed weaker after Beijing moved to curb its recent rally. The Reserve Bank of Australia raised its cash rate by 25 basis points to 4.85%, its fifth increase this year and the highest level in 18 years, in a surprisingly divided 6-3 vote that fuelled expectations the tightening cycle may be nearing its end. The U.S. dollar index fell 0.5% to 101.34, the South Korean won gained 0.5% to 1,337.98 per dollar, and the yen strengthened 0.7% to 157.64 per dollar. Democrat Jon Ossoff won re-election in Georgia and Roy Cooper flipped a Republican-held Senate seat in North Carolina, while control of Congress remained uncertain, and the 10-year Treasury yield fell 4 basis points to 4.919%. Brent crude traded around $103.85 a barrel after falling about 1% to a near four-week low, as markets weighed diplomatic efforts to end the conflicts in Iran and Ukraine against the risk that further attacks disrupt supplies.
