Ms. Vu Tuyet of Hanoi asks whether her company, which hires a part-time worker at 4 million VND per month, must pay any additional insurance if the worker has already signed a labor contract and pays social insurance elsewhere. The Vietnam Social Security Agency says part-time workers are still covered by compulsory social insurance if their contract lasts at least one month and their salary is at or above the lowest compulsory contribution base. For workers with multiple labor contracts, social insurance is paid under the first contract signed, while health insurance follows the contract used as the basis for compulsory social insurance. For occupational accident and disease insurance, the employer must pay for each contract if the worker is subject to compulsory social insurance.

- Draft amendments to social insurance rules set to bring major benefit changes; all workers should take note!
The draft amendment to the 2024 Social Insurance Law, submitted by the Government under document No. 865/TTr-CP dated 07/10/2026, proposes phasing in compulsory coverage for workers without employment contracts and platform workers. It also clarifies that recipients of monthly social pension allowances are covered by neither compulsory nor voluntary social insurance, and lets individuals join supplementary pension insurance directly on a voluntary basis. On payments, it would remove the 12-month cap on written authorizations to receive pensions and benefits, and move payments to beneficiaries' bank accounts, including for people living abroad. The draft also revises lump-sum retirement allowances under Article 64 or 65 of the 2024 Law, updates lump-sum survivor benefits and maternity allowances for voluntary contributors, and restructures agencies to match two-tier local government.

- The Rise of the Fractional CFO Is Reshaping the Finance Technology Stack
Finatical Software argues that fractional CFOs and advisory firms need a technology stack built for repeatable reporting, forecasting and decision support across multiple clients. Unlike an internal CFO working in one company, a fractional CFO manages several accounting environments, each with its own chart of accounts, reporting needs and models, so cutting the time spent preparing data is critical. The release stresses that Excel remains important, but manual exports create static snapshots that consume time when repeated across clients. Flash Reports, developed by Finatical, connects QuickBooks Online data to Microsoft Excel so that advisors can refresh financial data without rebuilding workbooks each reporting period.
- Tiris BFS Confirms Low - Cost , Near - Term Project | Company Announcement
The announcement sets out a production target and forecast financial information for the Tiris Uranium Project, based on Ore Reserves and Inferred Mineral Resources, and includes forward-looking risk warnings. By ore tonnes, 67.1% of the target comes from Ore Reserves (28.3% Proved, 38.8% Probable) and 32.9% from Inferred Mineral Resources; by contained U3O8, the split is 67.7% and 32.3%.

The company says the 91.3 Mlbs U3O8 Mineral Resource estimate reported on 12 June 2024 remains unchanged, and that the material assumptions, including availability of project finance, are set out in Appendix 4.
- 8 charged over phantom worker scheme involving false CPF declarations in work pass applications
Eight people aged between 31 and 61 were charged on October 8 with making false declarations in work pass applications involving CPF contributions. In a statement on Friday, October 16, the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) said seven employers and an administrative assistant falsely declared that CPF contributions were for local employees who did not actually work for them, known as phantom workers. The false declarations were allegedly made to obtain work passes illegally, an offence under the Employment of Foreign Manpower Act that carries a fine of up to $20,000, up to two years' jail, or both. Three phantom workers will face administrative financial penalties for fraudulently receiving CPF contributions, and MOM said it has stepped up investigations and will take firm enforcement action.
- Dell stock plunges 11%, leading data center sell-off as fears mount about 'enterprise AI timing'
Dell shares fell 11% on Wednesday, dragging down Hewlett-Packard Enterprise, Oracle and Super Micro as concerns grew that enterprise AI spending won't justify the AI infrastructure buildout. Barclays downgraded Dell, HPE and NetApp to hold from buy, citing their strong run and a lack of a "meaningful AI inflection" in enterprise spending. The bank attributes recent revenue gains mainly to the global memory shortage and higher memory prices passed on to customers, noting businesses typically allocate just 5% of IT budgets to AI. Dell is up more than 300% this year, while Oracle, a heavy borrower, is down 33% year to date after falling 9% on Wednesday, and CoreWeave dropped 15%. Barclays warned that normalizing or declining memory prices could weigh on infrastructure revenue, and memory stocks were also hit after China's CXMT reported progress on a new chip structure.

- Netflix stock is down roughly 25% in 2026 as Q3 earnings loom
Netflix (NFLX) reports third-quarter results after the bell on Tuesday, with the stock down more than 25% this year and closing Friday near $70, versus $93.76 at the end of 2025. Investors are worried about slowing viewership, competition from YouTube, and live sports moving to Amazon Prime Video and HBO Max. Last week Netflix cut about 6% of its workforce (roughly 1,000 employees) and named Peter Rice its new chief content officer, and five firms lowered price targets in October. Analysts expect EPS of $0.82 on revenue of $12.88 billion, up about 12% from a year earlier, in line with Netflix's own forecast. KeyBanc's Justin Patterson wants more content investment, product changes, expense cuts and a possible first-ever dividend.
- Cleveland-Cliffs Jumps 10% on Strongest Quarter in Three Years; Nucor and Steel Dynamics Edge Higher
Cleveland-Cliffs (CLF) rose 10% to $13.29 after reporting third-quarter adjusted EBITDA of $612 million, beating its $575 million guidance and up sharply from $143 million a year earlier. Revenue of $5.61 billion missed the $5.72 billion expected, though sales rose 18.6% year over year on a higher average net selling price of $1,177 per ton and larger shipments. Management said imports remain well below historical levels, but it indefinitely idled the galvanizing lines at its Canadian unit Stelco due to oversupply. The company guided to about $715 million of adjusted EBITDA in Q4 and said 2027 adjusted EBITDA should exceed $4 billion based on current index price forecasts. Its target is to bring net debt to EBITDA below 2.5x by mid-2027.

- AI capex may be Meta's biggest earnings test
Meta Platforms (META) reports third-quarter earnings after the close on Wednesday, alongside a wave of Big Tech peers. The GAAP EPS estimate is $3.54, though that figure may be messy because a legal settlement will be included and analysts differ on how it will be accounted for. Options imply a 3.2% move in either direction, the smallest since the fourth-quarter report before last. Estimates for next year's capex vary widely: Wedbush near $250 billion, Evercore ISI $210 billion, Bank of America $205 billion and Dan Ives around $194 billion. Most analysts say that spending is acceptable if Meta provides a Muse roadmap and confidence it can monetize it, and the stock is up about seven and a half percent year to date.
