• U.S. midterm elections in pictures: Democrats' sweeping victories deliver rebuke to Trump

  Democrats won sweeping victories in the U.S. midterm elections, flipping key Republican-held seats and projected to gain control of both chambers of Congress. In Texas, James Talarico defeated Ken Paxton to become the state's first Democratic senator since 1988, while Gina Hinojosa unseated Gov. Greg Abbott. In North Carolina, Roy Cooper flipped a Senate seat, while in Georgia Jon Ossoff won reelection and Keisha Lance Bottoms became the first Black woman elected governor of a U.S. state. In Ohio, Sherrod Brown defeated incumbent Sen. Jon Husted. The article describes the results as a referendum on Trump's second term, with voters concerned about cost of living, inflation and the war in Iran.

• [UPDATE] CNN projects Democrats will take the House from Republicans, President Trump denies responsibility

  Democrat Chris Pappas won the New Hampshire Senate seat, defeating Republican John Sununu. AP projects Democrat Mark Warner will win re-election in Virginia over Bert Mizusawa, while Debbie Wasserman Schultz won the Florida 20th district House seat. CNN and AP project Jon Ossoff will be re-elected in Georgia over Mike Collins, but a runoff on December 1 would follow if no candidate wins a majority. Democrats also won Senate races in New Jersey, Illinois, Delaware, Massachusetts and Rhode Island.

• There's a 99% Chance That Democrats Retake the House, and History Says This Shift Will Have a Huge Impact on Stocks

  According to prediction market Kalshi, as of 8:50 p.m. ET the odds of Democrats retaking the House had risen above 99%, meaning President Trump would likely face a divided Congress from January 2027. A Retirement Researcher review of S&P 500 returns from 1926 through 2023 found an average annual return of 7.33% during 34 years of divided Congress with a Republican president, compared with 16.63% during 15 years of divided Congress with a Democratic president. The article notes that gridlock would make major tax and spending legislation hard to pass, while debt-ceiling talks would be harder. UBS puts the chance of a Democratic sweep of both chambers at 50%. Still, Carson Group's Ryan Detrick notes that the six months after midterm elections have historically been strong, and the S&P 500 hasn't been down in the six- or 12-month period after a midterm over the last 75 years.

• President Donald Trump Claims He'll "Veto Everything" if Democrats Retake Congress, and It Has Big Implications for the Stock Market

  Polymarket traders put the chance at 89% (as of 7 p.m. ET) that Democrats will sweep both the House and Senate, while Republicans hold 218 of 435 House seats and 53 of 100 Senate seats. Trump told Fox News “I guess I'll become Mr. Veto” if a Democratic-led Congress takes shape. The article notes that a divided Congress could keep major tax and spending legislation off the table, but could also create friction over the debt ceiling (forecast to be reached in the first half of 2027), raise shutdown risk and spark disputes over AI regulation. Citing Retirement Researcher, it says the S&P 500's average annual return is 7.33% under a Republican president facing a divided Congress, versus 14.01% to 16.63% in other scenarios, while the index has been higher six and 12 months after every midterm election over the last 75 years.

• What the 2026 midterm elections could mean for Trump’s final two years

  Tuesday's midterm elections will determine which party controls Congress for the remainder of Donald Trump's presidency. Oddsmakers and polls favor Democrats, especially to flip the House, while the Senate is expected to be very close. Full results could take days or weeks to count; Stifel says markets could react sharply once results are clearer, but that reaction could reverse, since gridlock remains the most likely outcome. If Republicans keep control, Trump could push through his agenda with little congressional resistance. If Democrats win one chamber, passing budgets and must-pass bills would become harder, while Democrats could launch investigations into the White House and businesses.

• Trump is going to get 'trounced' in the midterms — and knows it, Anthony Scaramucci tells CNBC

  Former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci told CNBC that President Donald Trump will get 'trounced' in Tuesday's midterm elections and knows it. CNBC's All-America Economic Survey showed Trump's economic approval hit an all-time low last month, with 65% of respondents disapproving of his handling of the economy. Scaramucci said Trump has not delivered on promises of affordability, an end to 'forever wars' and transparency on the Epstein files, which he argued is pushing some within MAGA to break from him. Prediction markets price roughly a three-in-four chance that Democrats win Senate control, and Scaramucci expects a 'civil war' within the Republican Party. On Iran, he was 'bearish' about a diplomatic breakthrough after the vote, citing no alignment between Iran, Israel and the United States.

• Breaking: State Bank of Vietnam plans long-term liquidity injection for banks

  The State Bank of Vietnam plans to inject nearly 48,800 billion dong into the banking system through a 182-day USD/VND swap, with a maximum size of 2 billion USD and a value date of November 9, 2026. Credit institutions sell USD to the SBV to receive VND and commit to repurchase at maturity, at a spot buying rate of 24,399 dong per USD and a forward selling rate of 24,704 dong per USD. This tenor is much longer than the 21-day, 14-day and 7-day swaps conducted in 2026, while the 2 billion USD limit remains unchanged. This time, participation conditions are more specific, applying only to institutions with medium- and long-term foreign loans or international bonds outstanding with remaining maturities of 12 months or more. The move comes alongside a request to cut deposit and lending rates and may help banks be more proactive in managing their VND funding.

• Breaking: State Bank of Vietnam wants to inject longer-term liquidity into the banking system via FX swap channel

  The State Bank of Vietnam (SBV) plans to supply nearly 48,800 billion VND to the banking system through a 182-day USD/VND swap, capped at 2 billion USD. For the Nov. 6 intervention, the spot buying rate is set at 24,399 VND/USD and the forward selling rate at 24,704 VND/USD, with a value date of Nov. 9, 2026. Credit institutions sell USD to the SBV for VND and commit to buy back the currency at maturity, and only those with medium- and long-term foreign loans or international bonds with at least 12 months remaining are eligible. The tenor is much longer than the 7-day swap in September, which helps banks plan VND funding more proactively into year-end and early next year. The move is part of broader SBV measures to support liquidity and lower funding costs, including its earlier request that banks cut deposit and lending rates.
