- North Korea denies role in $6.3B Binance hack, points finger at US
Kim Yo Jong, sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, denied North Korea's involvement in the $6.3 billion Binance hack and called the US allegations politically motivated. She gave no evidence when suggesting the US could be behind the theft, and also rejected the FBI's blame for the $1.5 billion Bybit hack in February 2025. By contrast, TRM Labs attributed the attack to North Korea's TraderTraitor group with high confidence, while Chainalysis and ZachXBT also linked it to North Korean hackers. ZachXBT said funds stolen in the Binance and Bitget hacks were commingled at the same address after passing through THORChain, and Bitget CEO Gracy Chen said IP addresses were linked to VPN services used by a certain DPRK group.
- Apple's inventory surges 154% as memory chip costs climb
Apple kept stockpiling inventory, especially computer memory, in its fiscal fourth quarter, with inventory rising from $11.09 billion in Q3 to $14.54 billion in Q4, up 31.1% sequentially and 154.3% from $5.72 billion a year earlier. The company forecast a 45%–46% gross margin for the December quarter, largely due to higher memory costs, after posting 47.9% in the September quarter. CEO John Ternus called memory pricing unprecedented and said costs would rise further in the December quarter and beyond, partly offset by earlier price increases on some devices. Manufacturing purchase obligations rose $33 billion from June to the September quarter as Apple works to improve supply. iPad revenue fell 10% year over year to $6.2 billion, below the $6.7 billion analysts expected, which Apple blamed on supply constraints.

Several analysts raised their price targets: Goldman Sachs’ Brooke Roach lifted hers to $24 from $18 while keeping a neutral rating, and Barclays’ Adrienne Yih raised hers to $24 from $19 and kept an overweight rating. The article notes that the Jimmy Choo line performed especially well, the Michael Kors unit is in turnaround mode, and management is trimming costs.
- ELEKTROS (OTC:ELEK) Explores Northern New York Lithium Potential Amid Rising U.S. Focus on Critical Mineral Supply
ELEKTROS Inc. (OTC: ELEK) is conducting a preliminary, exploratory review of a hard-rock lithium opportunity in northern New York near the Canadian border, but it has not acquired the property, and no mineral resource, reserve or feasibility study has been independently verified. Possible next steps include confirming property ownership and mineral rights, obtaining independent geological review, examining environmental and permitting requirements, assessing infrastructure and financing, and the company says any move forward will depend on due diligence results. The release cites remarks by President Donald J. Trump on critical minerals at the American Mining Roundtable on August 7, 2026, and by Elon Musk on lithium-ion batteries for energy storage, but both are general and do not refer to ELEKTROS or this property. A Benzinga article dated October 22, 2026 cited an outlook that global lithium demand could more than triple by 2050, which the release notes is not a forecast for ELEKTROS. Separately, the company continues to explore development relationships for its multi-port EV charging patent, though it has not announced a prototype, patent license, customer deployment or revenue
- Accenture vs. Microsoft: Which Technology Stock Is a Better Buy for 2027?
This comparison weighs Accenture (ACN), a consulting firm that helps organizations implement new systems, against Microsoft (MSFT), which supplies cloud and productivity software, as companies race to integrate AI. For fiscal 2026, Accenture reported revenue of nearly $74.2 billion, up roughly 6.5%, and net income of about $8.4 billion, while Microsoft reported revenue of approximately $331.8 billion, up from nearly $281.7 billion, and net income of about $133.7 billion. Net margins were about 11.3% for Accenture and roughly 40.3% for Microsoft, and free cash flow was roughly $11.6 billion and nearly $67.0 billion, respectively. Accenture screens cheaper on price-to-sales, while Microsoft has a higher forward P/E; the article flags Accenture's risks as client spending cuts and acquisition integration, and Microsoft's as heavy datacenter spending and competition from Amazon. The author prefers Microsoft, citing AI demand for its cloud, cloud revenue growth that sped up to 30% in fiscal Q1 2027, and rising AI data center costs weighing on free cash flow.
