Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko said on 22 October, at the 19th Verona Eurasian Economic Forum, that normalizing Russia's relations with the US and Europe depends entirely on lifting all sanctions. He said relations cannot develop while the sides are effectively walking through a minefield, with no way to know where sanctions will be applied. Grushko accused the EU of seeking to contain Russia across the Balkans, the South Caucasus, the Baltic region and the Arctic, and argued that the bloc has identified Russia as its main strategic threat and is preparing for war. The two-day forum, held on 22 and 23 October in Istanbul, draws participants from more than 30 countries.

- EU Seeks to Curb Russian Oil Supply in 22nd Sanctions Package
On Oct. 20, TASS reported that the European Commission wants to add new restrictions on Russian oil to its 22nd sanctions package. EU High Representative Kaja Kallas said the package would target Russia's shadow fleet, its energy and banking sectors, and entities in third countries. She gave no timeline, and the package requires unanimous approval from member states. The move comes amid Europe's energy crisis, with EU countries spending 100 billion euros more on energy imports since the start of the year than in the same period last year, gas prices up 140% and diesel up 100%. The 22nd package was originally planned for September, and on Oct. 12 the EU expanded its sanctions list by nearly 1,600 individuals and entities, though the Commission clarified that this was not the 22nd package.
- Trump Admin Floats Unfreezing Russian Assets In Big Move To Restart Talks
According to the Financial Times, the US has proposed that European countries unfreeze some of Russia's sovereign assets and deposit them in a vehicle controlled by Washington. The plan was presented by envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner at a Miami meeting on Oct. 10, and European officials reportedly rejected it, with Merz saying the assets should remain frozen in Europe. At least €260 billion in Russian central bank sovereign assets have been frozen since 2022, over €210 billion of it in the EU, mostly at the Belgian depository Euroclear. The article asks whether information about Russia's support for Iran, including drones and intelligence, is being withheld from the US president, noting that Trump said on October 13 he did not believe Russia was helping Iran.

U.S. stocks recovered part of last week's sharp AI-led losses on Monday, with the S&P 500 up 0.4%, the Nasdaq up 0.9%, and the Dow down 44 points, or 0.1%, as of 10 a.m. Eastern time. European indexes fell more than 1%, including 1.5% in Paris, after violent weekend protests that could push governments to spend more and pressure bond markets. The 10-year Treasury yield rose to 5.10% from 5.09%, after topping 5.30% earlier this month, its highest level since 2002, while Brent crude fell 1.6% to $108.13 a barrel. CoreWeave rose 0.6% after tumbling 25.2% last week, Nvidia added 0.6%, and Cleveland-Cliffs jumped 7.7% after reporting a bigger profit than analysts expected.

- EU Races to Pass Russia Sanctions Package Before French Presidential Election
According to The Telegraph, the EU is rushing to adopt a 22nd Russia sanctions package before Marine Le Pen, who leads polls, could become French president in April, with one source calling February a possible 'last chance'. The bloc has already imposed 21 sanctions rounds since 2022, and the recent addition of nearly 1,600 Russian individuals and entities to its blacklist is seen by some observers as equivalent to a 22nd package. Negotiations have stalled over France's push to delist billionaire Alisher Usmanov, and objections from Greece, Bulgaria, Germany, Portugal, France and Italy have significantly weakened the European Commission's original proposal. Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has taken a firm stance that contrasts with U.S. President Donald Trump, who has eased restrictions on Russian diesel.

In Asia, South Korea's Kospi rose 1.8% to 5,768.01 but remains more than 17% below its June peak, while Japan's Nikkei 225 lost 0.6%. Oil fell about 2% after U.S. President Donald Trump moved to put broad sanctions on Russia, including on its energy sector, on hold, a step likely to lead to more Russian energy exports; Brent dropped 2.1% to $107.55 a barrel. The 10-year U.S. Treasury yield eased to around 5.08% from 5.13% on Friday, after hitting 5.35% earlier this month, its highest since 2002.

- Meta’s capital-raising plans expose a major weakness in the AI boom
Meta (NASDAQ:META) shares fell 7% on Thursday despite strong earnings, after the company unveiled plans to issue a new class of non-voting Class C stock.

Meta said it currently has sufficient capital for its needs but wants more financing flexibility going forward, with the new shares available as early as the end of 2026. The article notes Meta raised its 2026 capital expenditure forecast to $135–145 billion, while third-quarter revenue grew 26% to $64.6 billion and capex reached $34.91 billion, pushing free cash flow negative.
- The AI Bottleneck Takes Many Forms. These 7 Stocks Will Benefit.
AI growth is hitting bottlenecks in chips, memory, power, connectivity and cooling, and the Nasdaq-100 Technology Sector Index fell more than 5% in the past week. The article highlights seven companies tackling these constraints. Nvidia still faces GPU supply limits as it ramps Blackwell and Vera Rubin, while Micron, a high-bandwidth memory maker, reported fiscal fourth-quarter 2026 revenue of $54.23 billion versus $11.32 billion a year earlier. Lumentum guided to revenue of $1.225 billion to $1.275 billion for the next quarter, Coherent's data center and communications segment hit $1.615 billion, and GE Vernova reported $24.2 billion in orders. Bloom Energy's Oracle deal covers up to 2.8 gigawatts of on-site fuel cell capacity, and Vertiv supplies cooling systems, though expanding production remains a challenge.
- Same Playbook, Different Silicon: Broadcom Holds the Throne, Marvell Plays the AMD Challenger.
Broadcom and Marvell both beat AI estimates and raised guidance, but Broadcom operates at much larger scale, with AI semiconductor revenue of $16.70 billion, up 221% year over year and 56% of total revenue. Custom XPUs supplied 73% of its AI revenue, while gross margin slipped to 75% and operating margin reached 67.9%. Marvell reported $2.74 billion in revenue, up 36.5%, with data center sales at 79% of the total, and its Google deal includes a warrant for up to 7% of its shares. Broadcom guided to Q4 revenue of about $34.8 billion and AI revenue of about $21.7 billion, while Marvell guided to $3.15 billion and plans about $1 billion in supplier prepayments.

- Arm’s Ready-Made Blueprints: The Blueprint Attack on Marvell’s Challenger Crown
Arm reported fiscal first-quarter revenue of $1.29 billion, up 22%, and says AGI CPU demand now exceeds $2 billion, though locked-in supply covers only the initial $1 billion. Marvell posted record revenue of $2.739 billion, up 37%, with data center sales at 79% of the total. The article argues Arm's ready-made compute subsystems and AGI CPU could let hyperscalers skip some custom design work that Marvell sells, and Arm may accept thinner margins, with first-generation AGI CPU gross margin expected in the high 30% range, maybe low 40s, versus Marvell's 58.9% non-GAAP gross margin. Marvell's non-GAAP operating margin rose to 36.6% from 34.8%, while Arm trades at about 248 times earnings. Over the past month, Arm fell 36.94% and Marvell lost 14.8%.
- Alphabet Solves the AI Infrastructure Bottlenecks Competitors Can’t Buy with Debt
The author argues Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL) has an edge by owning its TPU chips, power, private fiber networks and multimodal training data, while rivals must rent them. Google Cloud revenue in Q2 2026 rose 82% to $24.77 billion, and operating income climbed 30.38% to $40.77 billion. The article cites a trailing P/E of 14, debt-to-equity of 0.14, and a 5% quarterly dividend increase to $0.22, and compares these with higher P/E ratios at Microsoft and Amazon. Risks noted include Q2 capital expenditures of $44.92 billion, which pushed free cash flow to -$5.86 billion, long-term debt rising to $98.2 billion, and $49.6 billion raised in equity.
