MB stated that it did not register household businesses for customers on its own, after many users reported that personal accounts appeared as household business accounts with shop information on the MBBank app. The bank said the shop feature and VietQR payment codes are designed to help customers receive payments and track transactions, and that displaying them does not mean a customer has registered a household business or opened a household business account at MB. MB stressed that showing shop information or VietQR codes is not a basis for determining tax obligations, which are set by tax law and actual business activity. For customers with questions, the bank will review and clarify each registration and service use case, and customers can contact official support channels or MB transaction offices.

- Jamie Dimon warns US savers about Washington’s ‘heroin’ effect — it could crush you. Here’s how his bank protects itself
JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon, speaking at the Economic Club of Chicago, warned that government spending is inflationary: it boosts corporate profits and makes people feel good, but that feeling can prove painful later. Treasury Department data cited show the U.S. spent $7.40 trillion in fiscal 2026 while collecting $5.40 trillion, a $1.99 trillion deficit, up $217 billion from fiscal 2025. Dimon said the problem is not one piece of legislation but years of overspending, and that JPMorgan prepares for scenarios such as a 40% stock price drop. The article notes U.S. consumer prices have risen 29.8% since the start of 2020, and that $100 in 2026 has the purchasing power of $11.65 in 1970. It also covers gold, up 125% over five years, and real estate, where the S&P Cotality Case-Shiller U.S. National Home Price NSA Index rose 84% over ten years, presenting both as inflation hedges while noting high home prices and the work of managing tenants as drawbacks.
- European Commission reveals proceeds from €180 billion of frozen Russian assets
Of about 300 billion euros of Russian assets frozen by the EU and G7, roughly 180 billion sit at Euroclear, and the European Commission says it has received about 8 billion euros in proceeds from them since 2024, including 1.4 billion euros in August. It received only “a significant part” of the proceeds, suggesting Belgium taxes this income at rates that could reach 30%, according to Le Soir. The EC argues the interest is legally usable because the money “does not belong to Russia,” while a Belgian legal source told TASS this is equivalent to saying bank deposit interest does not belong to the account holder. In December 2025, Russia’s central bank sued Euroclear in the Moscow Arbitration Court for 18,200 billion rubles (225.5 billion USD), amid EU plans to use the assets to support Ukraine. On May 15, 2026, the court ruled in favor of the central bank and ordered Euroclear Bank to pay, and on May 20 the bank asked the court to enforce the ruling immediately.
- Meet the Brilliant AI Stock Obliterating Nvidia in 2026 With a Return of 44%
Corning, a glass maker since 1851, has seen its shares rise 44% in 2026, versus 16% for Nvidia, as demand grows for its fiber-optic cables used in AI data centers. The article says data centers are shifting from copper to fiber, and Corning’s new Multicore Fiber packs four cores into one strand, cutting cable count by 75% for the same performance, while clusters of over 130,000 GPUs need about 50% more fiber content. Meta plans to buy $6 billion of optical connectivity products from Corning over the next few years, and Amazon signed a deal of a similar size. In the third quarter of 2026, Corning’s core revenue rose 19% to $5.1 billion and optical communications revenue rose 44% to $2.4 billion, with that segment’s core net income up 80% to $532 million. Corning’s P/E ratio is 40.6 based on the last four quarters, versus 27.5 for Nvidia, but on Wall Street’s 2027 earnings estimate of $4.40 per share, the forward P/E is 28.7, which the article considers more reasonable.
- Blockchain investigator Chainalysis hit by cybersecurity incident
Blockchain analytics company Chainalysis said it was targeted in a cybersecurity incident, similar to recent ones at other platforms. Its investigation so far found no evidence of unauthorized access to investigation content, authentication credentials, or session tokens, though some non-sensitive customer data was exposed. Chainalysis said it engaged third-party cybersecurity experts and is using large language models to review and strengthen its defenses, and that the incident is unrelated to the recent crypto theft at Binance. Cointelegraph reported that Chainalysis had mapped a network of Russian intermediaries that helped North Korean IT workers cash out millions of dollars in cryptocurrency. Chainalysis also said suspected North Korea-linked hacks accounted for almost 89% of reported crypto hack losses this year, up from 15% in 2021.
- SpaceX Is Up 37% From Its August Low. A $5,000 Investment Could Be Worth This Much by 2028.
SpaceX (SPCX) shares, which listed at $150 in June, surged above $225 before a sharp sell-off pushed them near $100, and have since rebounded more than 37% from August lows to roughly the IPO price. The author argues AI is now the key driver, citing the xAI acquisition before the IPO, the Cursor acquisition, rising Grok subscriptions and the Grok Bots AI agent platform, while investors had focused mainly on the Starlink-driven Connectivity unit. Q3 revenue grew 830%, from $813 million to $7.56 billion, versus 69% growth in Connectivity and 6% in Space. On the Q3 conference call, CEO Elon Musk said revenue could reach $500 billion to $1 trillion by 2027. Assuming $500 billion in revenue in 2028 and 10x sales, the author estimates a valuation of about $5 trillion, implying a $5,000 investment could grow to $12,500.
- Anthropic's Gross Margin Rocketed to 85% From 12% in a Year, but the S-1 Warns It Won't Last
Anthropic has filed its public S-1, showing first-half 2026 revenue of $16.3 billion, roughly 14 times the same period a year earlier, which implies a gross margin of about 85%, up from 12%. Including research and development and sales and marketing costs, its GAAP operating margin was 8% in Q2 2026. The company warns margins may fluctuate, since it contracts for compute 12 to 18 months ahead and has about $417 billion in future minimum payment obligations, while most customer spending is consumption-based. Anthropic reportedly plans to raise up to $100 billion at a $1.5 trillion to $2 trillion valuation, which the author calculates would be about 63 times annualized first-half 2026 sales at $2 trillion. The author also expects the stock may debut with an expensive valuation.
