- Police fire tear gas as new French protests kick off
French police fired tear gas at about 150 protesters in Lyon on Saturday, October 24, after they briefly tried to block a road near the city centre, where demonstrations had been banned. The interior ministry mobilised 70,000 security personnel nationwide to counter a 'high' threat of violence, a week after riots, looting and vandalism that led to some 2,700 arrests. In Paris, shops boarded up their windows and the Louvre and Musée d'Orsay closed, though police described the capital as 'calm' at midday. Thousands also marched in Orléans against Marine Le Pen's National Rally, which opened its congress there to launch a campaign for elections in six months; police counted 11,000 people and organisers 26,000. Amnesty International said the measures were 'jeopardising the right to demonstrate peacefully'.
- France imposes curfews as it seeks to restore order
French Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu said France will impose new curfews where needed from Tuesday, after weekend demonstrations degenerated into some of the worst street violence in recent years. Several countries, including the United States, China and Germany, have issued travel advisories for citizens in France, and the government has been accused of failing to anticipate and contain the violence. Partial curfews in Paris and other cities took effect Monday, and Lecornu said they had helped keep the night calm. Macron, on a Gulf tour to secure oil and diesel supplies, has acknowledged shortcomings in handling the protests, and the presidency said he secured an additional 200,000 tons of diesel per month from the UAE and Bahrain. More than 2,500 people have been taken into custody since the weekend and 67 jailed, while Interior Minister Laurent Nunez offered to resign but Macron rejected his resignation.

- Forget the FDA Delay: 3 Reasons Exelixis Is Still a Buy
Exelixis shares have risen 49% this year, but the FDA has extended the review of zanzalintinib, its investigational colorectal cancer drug, with a decision now expected by March 3, 2027, instead of December 3, 2026. The article argues the outlook remains attractive, citing three factors. First, Cabometyx, its main revenue driver, posted second-quarter revenue up 10.6% year over year to $628.7 million, and patent protection should keep generics out of the U.S. until at least 2030. Second, some analysts estimate zanzalintinib could generate $4.5 billion in U.S. sales by 2033, compared with $2.3 billion in revenue last year. Third, Exelixis has several other early-stage candidates and research collaborations in its pipeline.
- Booking vs. Chewy: Do Pet Treats or Plane Tickets Make for a Better Stock in 2026?
The article compares Booking Holdings (BKNG) and Chewy (CHWY) on 2025 results: Booking posted revenue of about $26.9 billion, up roughly 13.4%, with net income near $5.4 billion, while Chewy reported about $12.6 billion in revenue, up roughly 6.2%, but net income of only about $222.8 million. Chewy expanded into pet health with its acquisition of Modern Animal, bringing its veterinary clinic locations to 47. The article cites competition from Airbnb and major technology companies for Booking, and from Amazon for Chewy. On valuation, Booking is said to trade at a lower multiple of future earnings estimates, while Chewy trades at a much lower multiple of sales. The closing section highlights Chewy's Autoship program growing faster than overall sales.
- Is Berkshire Bending the Rules With Bending Spoons?
The Motley Fool Hidden Gems Investing podcast discusses Bank of America's earnings, including a $1.2 billion anti-money laundering penalty, with investment banking fees down 11% and the stock the worst performer among bank stocks after the report. The hosts compare the case with TD Bank's, which involved criminal conduct and an asset cap, noting Bank of America mainly failed to report some suspicious transactions in a timely manner despite a 2024 order, so an asset cap is considered unlikely unless the investigation reveals criminal activity. The episode also covers Fastenal's earnings, Berkshire Hathaway's added investment in Bending Spoons, and CoreWeave's debt falling into junk territory.
- Is Solana a Good Investment After a 65% Drop From Its Record High?
Solana (SOL) trades 65.4% below its record high of $293 and around $101, so it would need about a 189% gain to return to that peak. At $293, its market cap would need to be about $173 billion, compared with roughly $59.8 billion now, and ongoing staking rewards keep increasing supply. Alpenglow reduced transaction finality from around 12.8 seconds to 150 milliseconds, and J.P. Morgan Asset Management launched two funds on Solana, yet Solana ETFs saw $17.3 million in net outflows between October 19 and 22. SOL fell 47.2% over the past year, versus a 27.4% drop in Bitcoin, and the article considers a return to $293 before the end of 2027 unlikely. Conditions cited for improvement include Solana ETFs shifting from outflows to consistent inflows.
- Stock-Split Watch: Is Palantir Next?
Palantir stock has gained about 13.5%, and roughly 714% over the past five years, while the S&P 500 rose 70.5% over the same five-year period. The shares trade near $200, and the author says that level is not yet likely to prompt a split, though a move toward $500 that holds would make one more likely. Palantir has never split its stock in the roughly six years it has been publicly traded. In its Q2 report published in August, sales rose 93% year over year to $1.935 billion, and non-GAAP adjusted operating income reached $1.194 billion, a 62% margin. The author argues the company does not need a split to lift its valuation, and that its sales growth and margins could continue to support the stock's upward momentum.
- Why Is Solana Worth About 17 Times More Than Sui?
Solana's market value is about $59.8 billion, roughly 15.3 times Sui's $3.9 billion. Both are high-speed layer 1 blockchains, and the market ranks Solana seventh by market cap versus Sui at 30th. Sui rose 25.7% over 60 days while SOL rose 5.8%, but Sui then fell 15.5% over 14 days to around $0.95. On a fully diluted basis, which counts all possible tokens, the gap narrows to about 6.8 times ($64.4 billion versus $9.5 billion), since only 41.2% of Sui's maximum 10 billion supply is circulating versus 92.7% of Solana's. U.S. spot Solana ETFs held about $1.61 billion in net assets as of October 22, 2026, though inflows have reversed from a peak, while the 21Shares Sui Staking ETF began trading on February 24, 2026, and SUI has dropped 32.1% in 2026.
