At a 14 October 2026 seminar, experts said Vietnam's carbon market could help businesses turn emissions cuts into financing and reduce their reliance on bank credit. According to ADB's Bùi Minh Giáp, Vietnam needs about USD 368 billion by 2040 for climate adaptation and emissions reduction, equal to 6.8% of GDP a year. Green credit outstanding reached over VND 856,000 billion at end-June 2026, up 9.87% from end-2025. Although the domestic carbon exchange has operated since late June 2026, no carbon credit codes had been listed as of 14 October, mainly because not all credits in circulation are eligible for domestic trading.

- When will Vietnam's first crypto asset exchange launch? A notable timeline has been revealed
The Vietnam State Securities Commission says the launch of the country's first crypto asset exchange depends on the progress of the applicants. Five organizations have so far been shortlisted, and they are still building IT systems to meet level 4 standards under Resolution 05, after which they must contribute VND 10,000 billion in capital and complete their files. Once a phase-one certificate is granted, organizations have one year to finish the remaining requirements, so the deadline would fall in May next year if counted from May this year. The regulator encourages exchanges to list highly liquid assets such as Bitcoin, while investors holding unlisted tokens can transfer them through licensed exchanges. According to Chainalysis, Vietnam recorded USD 122.2 billion in crypto activity from July 2025 to June 2026, ranking second in Southeast Asia after Singapore.

- South Korea Exchange Ban Hits KuCoin, MEXC and 25 Other Platforms
South Korea's Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) said authorities ordered a domestic access ban on 27 websites of unregistered overseas crypto exchanges, including KuCoin, MEXC, Phemex, BingX and BitMart, extending enforcement from app stores to websites. Regulators treat a platform as operating locally based on factors such as Korean-language sites, marketing to Korean users and support for won payments, and the communications review body approved the measures after reviews on October 6 and 7. The FIU had earlier asked Google and Apple to restrict unregistered exchange apps, with Google Play restricting 17 platforms in March 2025. Operating without registration can bring up to five years in prison or a fine of up to 50 million won. The FIU urged users to withdraw assets immediately despite the risk that blocks could make withdrawals harder, and a June probe by DAXA and registered operators found flagged exchanges charged average fees of 1.5% to 10%, versus 0.16% at the five largest won-based exchanges.

- Nvidia (NVDA) Stock Price Lags Massive Earnings Growth—A Compelling Value Opportunity
Munro Partners' Munro Global Growth Fund posted a -12.6% net return in Q3 2026, trailing the MAET.ASX return of -13.8%, with long holdings the main detractors.

- Salazar Resources to Begin Drilling the Yumi Gold-Silver Veins at Tarqui, with Porphyry Drilling Planned at Monja, Ecuador
Salazar Resources closed a $3,500,000 non-brokered private placement announced on October 8, 2026, and outlined its exploration plan. Phase 1 is about 1,500 metres of drilling in five holes at the Yumi gold-silver veins on its 100%-owned Tarqui project, with drilling expected to begin in late October 2026, and the veins have not previously been drilled. Selective rock-chip samples returned 105 g/t Au and 1,038 g/t Ag, and historical BHP holes intersected porphyry-style mineralization nearby, which the company interprets as lying on the periphery of a porphyry center not yet located. Phase 2 contemplates up to about 3,500 metres of drilling in four holes at the 100%-owned Monja copper-gold porphyry target from the first quarter of 2027, subject to surface access and permits. A soil survey of about 895 samples is also planned at Quimi, part of the Tarqui-Quimi project.
- Musk: AI’s Hard Part Is “Scaling Power”: 3 Stocks Uniquely Suited to Win This New Bottleneck Trade
Microsoft said it will scale its Maia chips to multi-gigawatt deployments starting next calendar year, and Elon Musk said scaling power is the hard part of AI. The article argues power is an input that chip and app companies cannot copy quickly, which favors Vistra (VST), Constellation Energy (CEG) and GE Vernova (GEV). Vistra has lost nearly a fifth of its value over the past year even though its adjusted EBITDA rose to $5.91 billion, while Constellation's normalized EPS is expected to reach $13.29 in fiscal 2027. GE Vernova's revenue is expected to reach $60.7 billion by fiscal 2028, and Jefferies has a $298 price target on Vistra. The article warns that all three stocks could move with the mood around AI, regardless of their results.
