- The US Shifts After the Election: Ukraine Gains Hope, Iran Stands at a Crossroads
Democrats won control of both the House and Senate in the midterm elections, which could shift US policy on Iran, Israel and Ukraine. Two sources told Reuters the risk of a new full-scale US attack on Iran after the vote has fallen, though a heavy Republican defeat could make Tehran more confident. On Ukraine, Democrats could propose new aid that might override Trump's veto with a two-thirds majority, though this would be slow to pass. Oil prices fell for three straight days, but low inventories are seen limiting further declines. Analysts also say the election could give some Asian countries reason to delay investment pledges made to avoid tariffs.

- Why Duolingo Stock Skyrocketed Today

- 6-month currency swap: Supporting liquidity, easing interest rate pressure
Mr. Nguyễn Thế Minh, Director of Investment Banking at ABS Securities, views the State Bank of Vietnam's 6-month foreign currency–VND swap operation as a suitable measure to support VND funding for credit institutions as interbank rates have trended upward. Exchange rate pressure has eased significantly compared with last year, creating favorable conditions for the operation. The relatively favorable swap cost could help banks balance liquidity and ease short-term interest rate pressure, while household deposits have recently risen. However, the maximum size of USD 2 billion and the 6-month tenor mainly address temporary liquidity needs and do not solve long-term funding issues.
