On October 18, the National Assembly received a report on revisions to the draft Criminal Procedure Code, including provisions on prosecuting commercial legal entities and applying asset seizure and account freezing to them. The Standing Committee of the Law and Judicial Committee reported two groups of views. Most support the draft as written, saying it aligns with the draft Criminal Code and the conclusions of the General Secretary and State President, that prosecution is needed to pursue criminal liability, and that these measures help prevent asset dissipation and ensure enforcement. Others argue that the draft Criminal Code does not treat legal entities as offenders, so these provisions should not apply. The draft was revised to say commercial legal entities “bear criminal liability” rather than “commit crimes,” in line with Article 31 of the Constitution.

- Cant be repeated : revolt over card ban blackout
Business groups have demanded an explanation for why they were kept in the dark for months about the Australian Taxation Office's plan to ban credit card payments for tax bills. Assistant Treasurer Daniel Mulino said the government knew of the plan in July, the ATO decided in late September, and Labor stepped in to cover card fees until the end of the financial year after small business protests. Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry chief executive Andrew McKellar said the policymaking process “cannot be repeated,” while Industry Minister Tim Ayres rejected the criticism and said reversing the ban was unlikely. Shadow treasurer Tim Wilson argued that small businesses should not learn of such decisions in the newspaper.
- Cant be repeated : revolt over card ban blackout
Business groups have demanded an explanation after being kept in the dark for months about a plan by the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) to stop accepting credit card payments for tax bills. Assistant Treasurer Daniel Mulino said the government learned of the plan in July, and the ATO decided in late September to proceed when the Reserve Bank’s ban on card surcharges took effect in October. After a backlash from small business, the government will cover card fees until the end of the financial year and has urged the ATO to keep negotiating a transition period with card companies. Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry chief executive Andrew McKellar said businesses were told only hours before the ban took effect, calling it a deficient policymaking process that “cannot be repeated.” Shadow treasurer Tim Wilson said small businesses should not learn about such decisions in the newspaper.

- Phú Quý, Bảo Tín Mạnh Hải, Bảo Tín Minh Châu Simultaneously Announce Changes to Gold Payment Methods
From October 16, Phú Quý, Bảo Tín Mạnh Hải and Bảo Tín Minh Châu announced that gold buy-sell transactions totaling 5 million VND or more in a day must be paid through non-cash methods under Decree 390/2026/NĐ-CP. The threshold is much lower than the 20 million VND set by the previous Decree 232/2025/NĐ-CP. Phú Quý only accepts payments from bank accounts in the customer's own name, not e-wallets or securities accounts. Decree 390 also removes gold jewellery and decorative art production and trading from the list of conditional business lines, though businesses must still meet requirements on product quality, price display, invoices, tax and anti-money laundering.

- Roger Marshall praises Trump tariff policies after Kansas executive says they hurt his business
At a Topeka event, Zac Surritt of R&S Maintenance told Sen. Roger Marshall that Trump's tariffs had reduced global demand, squeezed margins and forced the company to delay expansion plans. Marshall said this experience was likely an anomaly, since most manufacturers he has spoken with are expanding, and argued that tariffs are helping Kansas manufacturing grow. Democratic challenger Adam Hamilton said business leaders need stability, criticized the 56 tariff changes made in the past year, and called on Congress to reassert its authority over tariffs. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York estimated that tariffs imposed in 2025 and 2026 added 2.9 percentage points to inflation across a basket of 67 consumer goods, while the Tax Foundation put the average cost at $820 per household in 2026.

- Tesla Stock vs. the S&P 500: Which Investment Wins Through 2030?
The article argues Tesla trades at roughly 203 times this year's expected earnings and 13 times expected sales, a valuation that looks very expensive given gross margin pressure and a slower-than-expected robotaxi rollout. The flying Roadster, slated for production in 2028, is unlikely to make a meaningful sales or earnings contribution before 2030. The author thinks a Tesla-SpaceX merger by the end of the decade, likely an all-stock deal, is more likely than not and would be a key factor in how Tesla stock performs against the S&P 500 through 2030.
- SpaceX surprises Wall Street with Oct. 20 earnings date — here's why
SpaceX (SPCX) will release earnings on Oct. 20 after the market close, a surprise since earnings dates are usually shared weeks in advance. Evercore ISI analyst Kutgun Maral says possible reasons include putting updated financials on record before new financing or getting ahead of major lock-up releases, though scheduling is also possible. Reuters reported SpaceX is seeking $40 billion in financing to buy advanced Nvidia AI chips, including about $10 billion in bank loans and $30 billion in investment-grade debt, with Apollo expected to lead. The lock-up schedule includes 1.30 billion shares two days after earnings, 329 million on 10/24, and a remaining 857 million tranche of the 180-day group.
- AEP Partners with Amazon and X-energy to Explore Advanced Nuclear Energy in Indiana
American Electric Power (AEP) has announced a joint development agreement with X-energy to evaluate the feasibility of a 960-megawatt advanced nuclear project at a former coal plant site in Sullivan County, Indiana. Amazon is supporting development through a funding agreement. If the project reaches a final investment decision and is built, Amazon intends to buy the power under a long-term contract covering the facility's costs and operations. The initial project would include 12 Xe-100 units of 80 MW each, and the companies say it could create jobs, expand the local tax base and strengthen the grid for more than 60 years. AEP says the agreements include the financial safeguards it considers essential for any nuclear project to move forward.
