- 1 Reason Compass Pathways Is Worth a Second Look This Month
Compass Pathways (CMPS) is developing COMP360, a synthetic psilocybin for treatment-resistant depression, and plans to complete its FDA application by the end of the year, which could set up an approval decision in early 2027. After positive results in two Phase 3 trials, the FDA awarded COMP360 a Commissioner's National Priority Voucher (CNPV), which could shorten the review period to one or two months after filing. In 52-week results from the COMP005 trial, 40% to 45% of patients in the open-label extension saw at least a 50% reduction in depression symptoms, and about 30% achieved remission. With shares trading around $12, the average analyst price target of $23.75 implies about 95% upside. The article notes that approval is not guaranteed and that commercial adoption will depend partly on insurance reimbursement and the availability of treatment centers.

- Many people send money to hackers asking for a cut of the Binance theft
Wallets holding 18,270 bitcoin stolen from Binance keep receiving small transfers from strangers with messages asking for a share, though none of these messages has drawn a reply. The senders have spent about $46 in BTC on them, excluding transaction fees. Others urged the hacker not to return funds to Changpeng Zhao or to accept deals with white hat researchers, while some used the attention to promote their own tokens. As of Nov 1, the attacker had begun swapping 970,522 stolen SOL, worth about $96 million, into bitcoin, and the breach is estimated at about $6.3 billion, with roughly $2.7 billion frozen by token issuers and partners. Binance says it has covered about 95% of the stolen value and is processing withdrawals in stages, but it has not published a full technical report, and US authorities have linked the group to North Korea.

- European shares inch lower as Fitch cuts France’s outlook
The pan-European STOXX 600 fell 0.3% on Monday as markets digested Fitch's revision of France's sovereign outlook to negative from stable, citing weaker public finances and political gridlock. Brent crude dropped 3.3% to $109.70 a barrel after a 13.6% rise in October, though risk premiums stay elevated due to ongoing strikes on commercial tankers in the Persian Gulf and Strait of Hormuz. Germany's DAX was flat, London's FTSE 100 fell 0.3%, Spain's IBEX 35 rose 0.6% and Italy's FTSE MIB slipped 0.9%. Fitch pointed to slower growth, higher borrowing costs and a widening deficit, keeping France's 10-year yield spread over Bunds historically wide. Separately, Apple reclaimed its position as the world's most valuable listed company, edging past Nvidia, as investors grew wary of AI spending ahead of its earnings call, the first hosted by CEO John Ternus.
