Russia and Ukraine have both signaled readiness to resume talks mediated by the US, after US envoy Steve Witkoff met President Putin in St. Petersburg on October 21. Reuters reports that Yuri Ushakov acknowledged US proposals from Oslo did not fully meet Moscow's wishes, and the timing of a trilateral round is still unsettled: Kyiv wants early November, while the Kremlin points to after November 10. Meanwhile, Zelensky said Russia fired 21 ballistic missiles on October 22, and Russian officials said Ukraine launched 630 UAVs toward Moscow, figures not yet fully verified by third parties. Moscow seeks a long-term security settlement rather than a short-term ceasefire, while Donbas, territory and military limits remain the key sticking point, with Kyiv opposing ceding areas it still controls.

- Putin says Russia and Ukraine are close enough to reach a deal
In an interview with Vesti on October 22, President Vladimir Putin said Russia and Ukraine had come close enough to reach an agreement. He said trilateral talks among Moscow, Washington and Kyiv would focus on security guarantees for both countries after a peace deal, and that Russia had agreed with the US to resume them. US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are expected in Moscow in late October, as Washington hopes for a diplomatic breakthrough before the midterm elections. Fighting continues, with Russia's Defence Ministry saying it struck the Antonov aircraft plant in Kyiv, while President Zelensky said Ukraine is ready to negotiate, likely early next month. Talks remain deadlocked over territory, as Russia demands Ukraine give up all of Donbas, which Kyiv rejects.
- Russia proposes venue for three-way meeting with US and Ukraine
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Abu Dhabi is being discussed as the venue for the next three-way round of talks between Russia, the U.S. and Ukraine, expected in November, but declined to give details on preparations. Putin told U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff that Moscow is ready to resume trilateral talks around mid-November, and aide Yury Ushakov confirmed Abu Dhabi could host them. U.S. Vice President JD Vance said the biggest obstacle is that the two sides still disagree on details of the negotiations, and expressed optimism after Witkoff contacted senior officials in both countries. Witkoff reportedly travelled to St. Petersburg on October 21 carrying documents with terms to resolve the conflict. Some media reports say President Trump wants Zelensky and Putin to sign a peace deal at the G20 summit in Miami, Florida, in December.
- Three hours behind closed doors: Putin "curious" about what the US brings – Russia unexpectedly sets new move on Ukraine
Russian President Vladimir Putin held a closed three-hour meeting with US special envoy Steve Witkoff in St. Petersburg on October 21, after Witkoff met Zelensky in Oslo on October 20. Putin thanked Trump and said he was "curious" about the outcome of the Oslo talks, while a Kremlin aide said the discussions had "very little real value" in resolving the Ukraine crisis. The two sides also discussed a diesel supply deal, which Putin said had helped lower global diesel prices by 5-6%, along with possible fertilizer exports to the US, data center projects and energy cooperation. According to the Kremlin, trilateral Russia-US-Ukraine talks could resume at the technical level as early as next month, with Abu Dhabi as a potential venue, starting on or after November 10.
- Ukraine Ready to Do Something Unprecedented to End Conflict with Russia
On October 21, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Kyiv is ready to freeze the current front line to end the conflict with Russia and keep most of the territory it controls. Ukraine will meet US President Donald Trump and European leaders to seek security guarantees. The Kremlin said Vladimir Putin agreed in principle to resume trilateral talks with the US and Ukraine, possibly after November 10, following a roughly three-hour meeting with envoy Steve Witkoff, during which Russia agreed to release US teacher Stephen Hubbard. Republican Senator Bill Cassidy called Ukraine's absence from the talks absurd, while Zelensky said the US-Russia diesel deal aims to pressure Kyiv into giving up Donbas and that he will not resign.
- Details Revealed of Putin's Talks With US Special Envoy Witkoff
Russian President Vladimir Putin held a roughly 3-hour meeting on October 21 in St. Petersburg with US special envoy Steve Witkoff, who presented new peace proposals and asked Russia to resume three-way talks with Ukraine and the US. Ushakov said Putin is ready to resume those talks in mid-November, focusing on post-conflict security arrangements, while the Kremlin said no agreement on the next round has been reached. On trade, Putin said a recent diesel supply deal between the two countries cut global diesel prices by 5-6%, and a first 40,000-ton cargo is expected to depart within 2 or 3 days. Ushakov said Russia sees few of the Ukrainian and European proposals as helpful, and Putin offered Russia as a mediator in the US-Iran conflict. The Kremlin described Russia's release of US veteran Stephen Hubbard as a humanitarian gesture.
- Ukraine says it is ready to 'freeze' front lines to seek peace with Russia
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky told Fox News on October 21 that Ukraine is ready to freeze the conflict along the current front line, calling it a 'realistic' way to end the war. He described this as a ceasefire, or 'stop the killing' as President Trump puts it, and said it is the minimum Ukraine needs from Russia, with security guarantees to be sought from the US and European partners afterward. The same day, Zelensky said Russia supports a trilateral meeting at working-group level, with the exact timing still under discussion, as US envoy Steve Witkoff met with Russia. He expected the meeting in November, or early November at the latest. Witkoff said that after meetings in Oslo and St Petersburg, talks would continue as trilateral technical-level negotiations.

- Not Bitcoin. Not Ethereum. This Once-Popular Cryptocurrency Could Be the Biggest Winner of 2027.
The author argues Cardano (ADA) could rebound strongly in 2027 after falling another 40% in 2026. Five years ago it ranked fourth among cryptocurrencies with a market cap of $70 billion, but it now trades at about $0.21, with a market cap below $8 billion and outside the top 10. Cited factors include the “Cardano 2030 Strategic Framework,” which sets DeFi growth goals, and co-founder Charles Hoskinson's work on a new programming language that could open opportunities in AI. Comparing it with Solana, which lost 94% of its value in 2022 and rose 924% the following year, the author says a return to $1, where Cardano traded as recently as January 2025, would not be surprising, though he acknowledges it is a risky bet.
- Bau Duc Sets Up ESG Committee With 2 PhDs, 3 Master's Holders: 'Running Large-Scale Agriculture Like HAGL Without This Is Not Sound'
On October 22, HAGL's Board of Directors set up an ESG Sustainable Development Committee of six members, led by General Director Nguyen Xuan Thang as Head, including 2 PhDs and 3 master's holders in agriculture and finance. The committee will steer, coordinate and oversee the group's environmental, social and governance commitments. Chairman Doan Nguyen Duc said large-scale agricultural companies cannot stay outside ESG, as foreign investors, domestic banks and funds increasingly focus on environmental issues. In the first half of 2026, HAGL recorded revenue of VND 3,039 billion, down 18%, while profit after tax reached VND 2,204 billion, up 150.5%. The company holds about 30,000 ha of agricultural land and plans to plant 7,000 ha of coffee in 2026.
- Nvidia launches Minerva AIOps platform for AI factory observability
Nvidia has launched Minerva, an AIOps platform that provides end-to-end observability across AI factory infrastructure and workloads within its Vera Rubin platform. It collects telemetry from GPUs, networking, switches, schedulers and AI workloads, and uses a knowledge graph to trace slow jobs to the faulty component. Minerva processes billions of telemetry data points per hour, consolidates alerts into incidents with probable root causes, and includes a natural-language AI assistant. IREN is already using it, while Aolani, Bitdeer AI, IBM, Jio, Lambda, Quake AI and Tesla plan to deploy it, and Dell Technologies, Lenovo and Supermicro will integrate it into their offerings.
- 'Big Short' Investor Michael Burry Bumps Up Substack Subscription Price, Flags 4 'Busted' Bear-Market Havens
Michael Burry's Substack, Cassandra Unchained, plans to raise its monthly fee from $49 to $69 and annual fee from $479 to $679 from Nov. 1. It shows over 342,000 subscribers, up from 300,044 in July; if all paid the new annual fee, gross revenue would reach $232.2 million, though free readers and existing lower rates mean actual revenue is undisclosed. Burry highlighted Adobe (ADBE), Fiserv (FISV), Birkenstock (BIRK) and QXO as 'busted' stocks that could be a haven in a prolonged bear market, with ADBE, FISV and BIRK gaining 6.1%, 5.4% and 4.2% on Thursday as the SPY and QQQ fell 1.2% and 2.9%. He also warned a FASB proposal could force Nvidia to deduct circular revenue, with comments open until Nov. 23.

- If the AI Bubble Bursts, These Stocks Will Be Winners
AI-linked stocks came under pressure, with CoreWeave falling to its lowest level since its IPO after its bond yields jumped as high as 15%, the Nasdaq Composite dropping 2.6% on Thursday, and Meta tumbling 7% despite a strong earnings report over its first quarter of negative free cash flow in its history, reflecting heavy AI infrastructure spending. Meanwhile, the 10-year Treasury yield fell 3.8% to 4.95%, and homebuilder stocks rose, with the State Street SPDR S&P Homebuilders ETF (XHB) up 3.8% and Pool Corporation, RH and Lennar gaining 14.4%, 9.5% and 9%. Investors now see a 93% chance the Fed holds rates steady at 375-400 basis points, though rates are still expected to rise over the next year. The author says he is not ready to call an AI bubble, since demand for AI compute remains strong, but argues that investors with AI gains may consider shifting some into homebuilder or home furnishing stocks, with the outlook depending on inflation and interest rates.
