MarketBeat Week in Review – 9/4 - 9/8Oshkosh NYSE: OSK reported third-quarter 2026 sales of $2.8 billion, up 5.7% from a year earlier, while adjusted earnings per share of $2.41 fell short of the company’s expectations as fire truck production challenges weighed on results.
Chief Executive Officer John Pfeifer said the company’s revised full-year outlook primarily reflects near-term disruptions in its effort to modernize fire truck production at its Pierce business. Oshkosh now expects adjusted earnings per share of $8.50 to $9.50 for 2026, compared with its prior outlook, while forecasting approximately $11 billion in revenue and about $850 million in adjusted operating income.

3 Reasons Oshkosh Stock is Headed to New Heights“Our third quarter 2026 consolidated sales of $2.8 billion and adjusted earnings per share of $2.41 fell short of our expectations,” Pfeifer said. He attributed the shortfall to greater-than-anticipated production variability tied to the routing and delivery of thousands of parts used in custom fire trucks.
Fire Truck Manufacturing Overhaul Pressures Vocational Results Oshkosh is converting portions of its fire truck operations from traditional labor-intensive assembly to higher-flow production lines. The company said the effort is intended to improve output, flexibility and long-term returns while helping deliver trucks to customers more quickly.
Oshkosh Scores Big With EV Contract However, the transition has created material-flow challenges. Pfeifer said the company is improving tracking for internally fabricated parts, strengthening point-of-use delivery processes and adding experienced manufacturing leadership. The company plans to ramp the new production lines gradually alongside existing final assembly operations to reduce disruptions.
Once the changes are implemented, Oshkosh expects stable fire truck production at roughly 10% above last year’s levels. The company maintained its expectation that high-flow production lines can support 25% to 30% fire truck growth through 2028.
Vocational segment sales totaled $900 million in the third quarter, down $68 million from a year earlier. Fire truck production and shipment volume was approximately 20% below the prior-year quarter and also declined sequentially from the second quarter, according to Chief Financial Officer Matt Field.
Vocational adjusted operating income fell $49 million year over year to $102 million. More than $10 million of the decline was tied to additional spending on production-improvement initiatives. The segment’s adjusted operating margin was 11.4%.
Field said Oshkosh expects sequential production improvement in the fourth quarter as operations stabilize. For the full year, the company forecasts vocational revenue of about $3.7 billion and an adjusted operating margin of 12.5%.
Management also said demand for refuse and recycling vehicles showed early signs of recovery during the quarter as fleets plan for 2027. Oshkosh said its refuse backlog returned to roughly the level of a year earlier after being lower earlier in 2026.
Access Segment Delivers Sales Growth and Strong Orders Oshkosh’s Access segment reported third-quarter sales of $1.3 billion, up 21% from the prior year, driven by higher North American volume and improved pricing. The segment generated an adjusted operating margin of 11.2%, 20 basis points above the prior-year quarter.
The company recorded $2 billion in access orders during the quarter, producing a book-to-bill ratio of 1.5 and leaving it with a $2.7 billion backlog. Management said demand has been led by national rental companies and supported by large infrastructure investments, data centers and related projects.
Pfeifer said private nonresidential construction activity remained generally stable, while major projects have been the primary market driver. He added that growth in broader private nonresidential activity would be incremental upside to current demand.
Oshkosh expects full-year Access revenue of $4.8 billion and an adjusted operating margin of approximately 9.75%. Field said higher production throughput, improved manufacturing efficiency, more stable tariff conditions and pricing actions should support healthier incremental margins as the market recovers.
During the quarter, Oshkosh also announced a strategic investment in Nextera Robotics. The company said Nextera combines visual artificial intelligence, autonomous robotics and digital mapping to improve job-site visibility, quality and safety, complementing JLG’s connected-equipment and ClearSky Smart Fleet offerings.
Transport Outlook Includes NGDV Timing Uncertainty Transport segment sales declined 4% to $562 million. The year-earlier period included a $25 million license of JLTV-related intellectual property to the U.S. government that did not recur. Higher production of Next Generation Delivery Vehicles, or NGDVs, for the U.S. Postal Service was offset by lower defense volume.
Transport operating income was $8 million, down $28 million from a year earlier, primarily due to the prior-year intellectual-property licensing benefit.
Oshkosh said NGDV production improved sequentially in the third quarter, though certain suppliers remain production constraints. The company is adding supply buffers and expects those actions to normalize production by the middle of 2027. Management said it expects production to move from the lower end toward the upper end of an annualized range of 16,000 to 20,000 units.
Field said Oshkosh continues to expect a follow-on NGDV order from the Postal Service, although the timing could affect fourth-quarter earnings. The order could add as much as $40 million, or $0.50 per share, in the fourth quarter if received before year-end. The lower end of the company’s updated earnings outlook assumes the order slips into 2027.
For 2026, Oshkosh forecasts Transport revenue of approximately $2.3 billion and an operating margin near 4%.
Cash Flow Remains Strong Despite the operational pressures, Oshkosh generated $275 million in third-quarter free cash flow, bringing year-to-date free cash flow to $433 million. The company raised its full-year free-cash-flow outlook by $50 million to a range of $600 million to $700 million, citing working-capital discipline, higher customer advances and improved inventory management.
During the quarter, Oshkosh repurchased about 556,000 shares for $82 million. Moody’s also upgraded the company’s credit rating to Baa2, which Field said reflected the company’s resilience and balance-sheet strength.

Marriott International Inc (NASDAQ:MAR) will release its third-quarter earnings report before the opening bell on Monday, Nov. 2.
Analysts expect the company to report quarterly earnings of $2.85 per share, up from $2.47 per share in the year-ago period. The consensus estimate for Marriott’s quarterly revenue is $6.92 billion. It reported $6.49 billion last year, according to Benzinga Pro.
Morgan Stanley analyst Stephen Grambling maintained an Overweight rating on Marriott on Oct. 22 and raised the price target from $384 to $403.
With the recent buzz around Marriott, some investors may be eyeing potential gains from the company’s dividends too. As of now, Marriott has an annual dividend yield of 0.73%, with a quarterly dividend of 73 cents per share ($2.92 a year).
So, how can investors exploit its dividend yield to pocket a regular $500 monthly?
To earn $500 per month, or $6,000 annually, from dividends alone, you would need an investment of about $821,281, or around 2,055 shares. For a more modest $100 per month or $1,200 per year, you would need $164,256 or around 411 shares.
To calculate: Divide the desired annual income ($6,000 or $1,200) by the dividend ($2.92 in this case). So, $6,000 / $2.92 = 2,055 shares ($500 per month), and $1,200 / $2.92 = 411 shares ($100 per month).
Note that dividend yield can change on a rolling basis, as dividend payments and stock prices both fluctuate over time.
How that works: The dividend yield is computed by dividing the annual dividend payment by the stock’s current price.
For example, if a stock pays an annual dividend of $2 and trades at $50, the dividend yield is 4% ($2/$50). However, if the stock price increases to $60, the dividend yield drops to 3.33% ($2/$60). Conversely, if the stock price falls to $40, the dividend yield rises to 5% ($2/$40).
Similarly, changes in dividend payments can affect yield. If a company increases its dividend, the yield will also increase, provided the stock price stays the same. Conversely, if the dividend payment decreases, the yield will also decrease.
MAR Price Action: Marriott shares gained 1.3% to close at $399.65 on Thursday.

Carvana Expands Production CapacityCarvana continued expanding its vehicle reconditioning infrastructure to support future growth. During the quarter, the company integrated retail production capabilities at two additional ADESA locations, bringing the total number of integrated sites to 21. It also began construction on two additional full buildouts.
The company currently has three full buildout sites under construction, all expected to begin production in 2027. Its existing footprint provides fully built-out annual production capacity of approximately 1.5 million retail units, with sufficient real estate to eventually support 3 million units annually.
Management highlighted improvements in production efficiency, with quarterly vehicle production exceeding 200,000 units for the first time.
CVNA's Cash Position and Liquidity StrengthenCash and cash equivalents totaled $3.05 billion as of Sept. 30, 2026, compared with $2.33 billion at year-end 2025. Total assets increased to $15.20 billion from $13.20 billion, while vehicle inventory rose to $3.46 billion from $2.41 billion.
For the first nine months of 2026, net cash provided by operating activities increased to $900 million from $606 million a year earlier. Capital expenditures totaled $166 million compared with $96 million in the year-ago period.
During the third quarter, Carvana refinanced $1.7 billion of senior secured notes due 2030 through a senior secured term loan, generating approximately $45 million in annual interest expense savings. Its net debt-to-trailing-12-month adjusted EBITDA ratio improved to 0.8 times, while adjusted EBITDA-to-interest expense coverage reached 6.9 times.
Carvana Raises 2026 EBITDA ExpectationsFor the fourth quarter, management expects retail units sold to increase sequentially, assuming stable market conditions. The company now anticipates adjusted EBITDA at the higher end of its previously communicated full-year 2026 guidance of $2.7-$3 billion.
Carvana also reiterated its goal of selling 3 million retail vehicles annually between 2030 and 2035. Beginning in 2027, management plans to shift its primary reporting focus toward GAAP profitability metrics, replacing its 13.5% adjusted EBITDA margin target with an equivalent 12.5% operating margin objective.
Starting with its fourth-quarter 2026 earnings call, Carvana plans to discontinue quarterly and annual financial outlooks, focusing instead on progress toward its longer-term operational and profitability targets.

A hacked laptop belonging to one engineer opened a door that drained billions from Binance across ten blockchains in under half an hour, and the group behind it has done this before.
Robinhood Markets Inc. (NASDAQ:HOOD) shares are trading lower Friday amid a fall in cryptocurrencies after Binance disclosed the largest crypto hack on record. Crypto is a meaningful part of Robinhood’s revenue.
Binance Discloses Record $6.3 Billion Hack, Crypto Prices FallBinance said about $6.3 billion in funds were stolen in a security breach, surpassing the previous record of $1.5 billion taken from Bybit in February 2025. The exchange suspended deposits and withdrawals and said it would cover all losses. About $3 billion has been frozen on-chain, including more than $1.5 billion in USDT frozen by Tether and over $800 million in USDC frozen by Circle.
Binance said an initial investigation points to a compromised engineer’s laptop, while blockchain analysis firms TRM Labs and Chainalysis attributed the attack to North Korean hackers. Crypto prices fell on the news, with ether down 5.7%, BNB down 8.2%, XRP down 7.4% and Solana down 7% in early trading, according to CoinDesk, which also reported $1.57 billion in liquidations.
Why a Crypto Selloff Matters for RobinhoodRobinhood lets customers buy and sell crypto, and it earns transaction revenue each time they do. Crypto brought in $120 million in the third quarter, about 8% of Robinhood’s record $1.424 billion in total revenue, though it was down 55% from a year earlier. Transaction-based revenue rose 19% to $867 million, with crypto’s decline offsetting gains in event contracts, options and equities. A sustained drop in crypto prices, or a weakened confidence in exchanges following the hack, could reduce trading volumes and related revenue.
Robinhood is less dependent on crypto trading than in prior years. Options brought in $399 million in the quarter, event contracts contributed $173 million and equities added $121 million. CFO Shiv Verma told CNBC that event contracts tied to crypto price moves performed well in the quarter, giving customers another way to express a view on crypto, so swings in prices don’t necessarily hurt all of Robinhood’s crypto-related activity. Robinhood has not been implicated in reports surrounding the Binance hack.

Shares of Permian Resources Corporation (PR) rise 174% since institutions first bought big in 2022.
PR is an oil and natural gas company focused on the responsible acquisition and development of crude oil and liquid natural gas reserves. The company’s second-quarter fiscal 2026 earnings report showed record free cash flow of $751 million (a nearly 50% sequential rise) or $0.88 per share, an acquisition of 55,000 net acres in the Delaware Basin (including 330 high-confidence locations), and raised 2026 oil production guidance of 199,000 barrels per day (a 10% annual gain). The company reports again on Nov. 5.
It’s no wonder PR shares are up 82% this year, and they could rise more. MoneyFlows data shows how Big Money investors are betting heavily on the stock.
Permian Resources Attracting Big Money
Institutional volumes reveal plenty. In the last year, PR has enjoyed strong investor demand, which we believe to be institutional support.
Each green bar signals unusually large volumes in PR shares. They reflect our proprietary inflow signal, pushing the stock higher:

Plenty of energy names are under accumulation right now. But there’s a powerful fundamental story happening with Permian Resources.
Permian Resources Fundamental Analysis
Institutional support and a healthy fundamental backdrop make this company worth investigating. As you can see, PR has had strong sales growth and profits:
Also, the forward price-earnings ratio is only 10.9 times, indicating shares remain on the cheaper end relative to earnings performance.
Now it makes sense why the stock has been generating Big Money interest. PR has a track record of strong financial performance.
Marrying great fundamentals with MoneyFlows software has found some big winning stocks over the long term.
Permian Resources has been a top-rated stock at MoneyFlows for years. That means the stock has unusual buy pressure and growing fundamentals. We have a ranking process that showcases stocks like this on a weekly basis.
Since 2022, PR has drawn 27 outlier inflow signals and is up 174%. The blue bars below show when PR was a top pick on the Outlier 20 report in the last five years…institutions love these shares:

Tracking unusual volumes reveals the power of money flows.
This is a trait that most outlier stocks exhibit…the best of the best. Big Money demand drives stocks upward.
Permian Resources Price Prediction
The PR action isn’t new at all. Big Money buying in the shares is signaling to take notice. Given the historical gains in share price and strong fundamentals, this stock could be worth a spot in a diversified portfolio.

The greenback turned lower in the second half of the day on Thursday, following signals from the ECB about a rate rise in December and a decline in Treasury yields amid sell-offs in mega-caps. As a result, EURUSD returned to 1.12 by Friday morning, forming a double bottom. The DXY has been losing ground for the third day in a row, retreating from the region above 102, as it did earlier this month.
The US economy recorded its strongest growth in the third quarter at 3.4% y/y, while the growth rate of the PCE price index, the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge, impressed investors.
As expected, the ECB did not raise interest rates, and Christine Lagarde noted that there is no clear evidence that high energy prices are driving up core inflation. On the other hand, the direction of the deposit rate appears clear. This comment prompted the futures market to raise its estimate of the probability of a rate rise in December from 80% to 88%, reversing the bearish sentiment on the euro that had intensified over the past week. As a result, EURUSD managed to find its footing and rise by 0.7% from intraday lows near 1.11, once again attempting to climb above 1.12.
The US dollar took a hit from a sell-off in Alphabet shares following a disappointing set of corporate results. The shares slumped by almost 13%, and the loss of market capitalisation of around $500 billion was the largest in the company’s history. Investors rushed to safe-haven assets, benefiting the low-yielding euro and the yen, although the Swiss franc, which proved to be a safe haven, strengthened much more sharply.
The approaching US midterm elections also contributed to the decline in the USD index. As expected, the Bank of Japan left its overnight rate at 1.25% and announced that core inflation had reached its 2% target. Around 80% of experts believe the BoJ will raise rates in December, while Bloomberg reports that rates will reach 2% by July 2027.
Citigroup notes that, historically, the US dollar has weakened in the run-up to midterm elections when a divided Congress was expected, which is consistent with the current situation. Nevertheless, the bank believes that any declines in the USD index will be bought, given the impending Fed rate hikes.
Summary: EUR/USD recouped losses on ECB signals of a December rate rise and the Alphabet sell-off. Citigroup sees the dollar’s weakness ahead of the midterm elections as short-lived.
EUR/USD gave back part of Friday’s advance after briefly breaking above 1.1200. Eurozone GDP grew 0.4% in the third quarter, exceeding forecasts. The ECB’s inflation warning keeps further tightening possible, while lower US yields weigh on the dollar. The euro struggled to hold above $1.1200 on Friday as investors weighed stronger-than-expected eurozone growth against the European Central Bank’s warning that expensive energy threatens both inflation and economic activity.
EUR/USD traded around 1.1186 at 12:37 GMT, up 0.09%, after reaching 1.1215 earlier in the session. Falling US Treasury yields helped the currency recover, but the retreat below its 20-day moving average left buyers facing resistance.
The question heading into November is whether the euro can build on its recovery from Thursday’s low near 1.1105 or whether renewed dollar demand will push it back towards that level.
EUR/USD Today: Why the Euro Lost Ground Above 1.1200 Friday’s move above 1.1200 brought EUR/USD into its declining 20-day moving average, a level the pair had struggled to regain during October’s selloff.
The subsequent retreat shows that the initial recovery has yet to attract enough buying to hold above that area. It does not erase the rebound from Thursday’s low, but it leaves the euro trading within its recent range.
That distinction matters after the sharp decline from September. A stronger opening followed by a retreat can reflect profit-taking or renewed selling near resistance. A daily close above Friday’s high would offer more convincing evidence that demand is improving.
ECB Interest Rate Decision Leaves December Hike in Play The ECB held its three key rates unchanged on Thursday, keeping the deposit rate at 2.50%. Its warning about rising energy costs nevertheless left the possibility of further tightening open.
Policymakers said the energy shock was likely to push inflation higher and weaken growth. Underlying inflation had remained broadly stable, however, and wages had not shown a material response to higher prices.
For the euro, the message offers support without guaranteeing another increase. Evidence that energy costs are spreading into other prices would strengthen the argument for tighter policy. The complication is that borrowing conditions have already tightened. Raising rates further could reinforce inflation control while adding pressure to businesses, households and heavily indebted governments.
Sterling is also in focus ahead of next week’s Bank of England decision. Read our GBP/CNY forecast for the pound’s outlook against the Chinese yuan.
Eurozone GDP Growth Beats Expectations Friday’s growth figures gave investors a reason to reassess the region’s resilience. Eurozone GDP increased 0.4% in the third quarter, twice the 0.2% forecast in a Reuters poll. Annual growth reached 1.3%, exceeding expectations for 1.1%. The quarterly pace nevertheless slowed from 0.6% in the preceding period.
The national figures showed an uneven expansion. Germany grew 0.2%, Spain and the Netherlands each gained 0.6%, while Italy stagnated and France contracted 0.1%. The stronger headline reduces concerns about an immediate regional slowdown. France’s contraction, however, underlines why the ECB must balance inflation risks against pockets of economic weakness.
For EUR/USD, the report supports the euro’s recovery, although it has not yet produced a sustained break above 1.1200.
Falling US Treasury Yields Reduce Dollar Support US Treasury yields declined during European trading on Friday, easing one of the pressures that had weighed on the euro. The two-year yield fell approximately 5.8 basis points to 4.597%, while the 10-year yield dropped about 5.2 basis points to 4.936%, The Wall Street Journal reported.
Lower yields can reduce the return available on dollar assets and help competing currencies recover. However, the dollar retains support from comparatively high US interest rates. The euro therefore needs more than a single session of falling yields. A continuing decline in the US yield advantage would provide a stronger foundation for further gains.
EUR/USD Technical Analysis: 1.1215 Resistance Holds The immediate hurdle is the 1.1200–1.1215 zone, which includes the 20-day moving average near 1.1199 and Friday’s high. A daily close above it would bring 1.1250 into view, followed by 1.1300.
Momentum is improving. The MACD line has crossed above its signal line, and the histogram is positive. Both lines remain below zero, suggesting that selling pressure is easing while the broader recovery remains unconfirmed. Initial support sits near 1.1175, followed by 1.1150. Below those levels, Thursday’s low around 1.1105 becomes the main downside reference.
EUR/USD Price Forecast Today, October 30, 2026: Euro Tests 1.1200 Resistance After ECB Decision EUR/USD Forecast: What Could Drive the Euro in November? The euro enters November with stronger growth data behind it, but a difficult inflation outlook ahead. Further gains would be easier to sustain if European activity remains resilient while US yields continue to ease. Conversely, renewed growth concerns or a rebound in Treasury yields could restore the dollar’s advantage. For now, 1.1200–1.1215 separates the latest bounce from a more convincing recovery.
How does the ECB decision affect EUR/USD?
Expectations for higher European rates can support the euro. The effect also depends on Federal Reserve expectations and the relative strength of both economies.
Could EUR/USD fall below 1.1100?
A break below Thursday’s low near 1.1105 would expose 1.1100. Holding above that low would preserve the current recovery attempt.
Is EUR/USD bullish or bearish today?
The pair is recovering, but remains near a declining 20-day moving average. Momentum has improved without confirming a broader bullish reversal.
The EUR/USD forecast is starting to turn somewhat more constructive again. While the energy shock is a major heading for the euro, the single currency remains supported by a hawkish European Central Bank while growth data in the Eurozone has also been surprisingly resilient.
Rocket Lab shares have already closed above $100 once this year, and a specific upcoming milestone could force Wall Street to reprice the stock all over again.
Rocket Lab (NASDAQ:RKLB | RKLB Price Prediction) will close at or above $100 on or before September 30, 2027, carried by Neutron’s first flight and the re-rating that follows it.
Shares trade at $60.22, so this call requires a 66% gain. The first checkpoint is the Q3 2026 earnings report, expected November 9 after the close. The company has not confirmed that date yet.
Neutron Flips the Cash Story
Management says Neutron production still lines up with delivery to the launch pad in Q4 2026. The Archimedes engines have now logged more than 400 hot fires.
Chief Financial Officer Adam Spice called the first successful Neutron flight the key turning point for cash generation, with adjusted EBITDA expected to turn positive in the following quarter.
Neutron’s launch price is set at $50 million to $55 million, and Spice said, “Right now, the view is that we see more upside to ASPs rather than downside.” The adjusted EBITDA loss has already narrowed to $8.8 million from $27.6 million a year earlier.
Record Backlog Funds the Thesis
Backlog reached $2.36 billion, up 137% year over year. About 45.5% of it is expected to turn into revenue within 12 months. As of August, Rocket Lab had already signed over $1 billion in new Q3 contracts, including an $816M Space Development Agency award, the largest in company history.
Q3 revenue guidance of $250M to $265M follows Q2 revenue of $234.07 million, which rose 62%. Chief Executive Peter Beck summed up demand this way: “Launch has never been so constrained.”
This Stock Has Already Traded Above $100
After the Q1 2026 beat, shares closed at $105.47, a 34.22% gain in one session. The 52-week high is $151. The consensus analyst target is $102.15, with 4 strong buy, 12 buy, 4 hold and 0 sell ratings.
The recent pullback of -16.58% over one month brought the price down while the fundamentals kept improving.
Key Dates for Retirement Investors
November 9: Watch whether Q3 revenue lands inside the $250M to $265M range, whether backlog rises above $2.36 billion, and whether Neutron stays on track for the pad.
First Neutron flight: Management describes a “1, 3, 5” increase in launch rate after the first flight.
Mid-2027: The Iridium Communications (NASDAQ:IRDM) deal is expected to close in mid-2027, which adds a constellation with more than $870 million in annual revenue.
Beta of 2.94 means the path to $100 will be volatile. If Neutron is delayed deep into 2027, or Rocket Lab goes back to equity markets after raising $1.53 billion in ATM funds during H1 2026, the $100 date moves later.
Even so, record backlog, Neutron’s pricing and a stock that has held above $100 before make September 30, 2027 the date.

U.S. economic and inflation data challenge Walsh’s claim that the economy is "not yet overheated", as economists warn of risks of further interest rate hikes.
U.S. real GDP rose at an annualized quarterly rate of 3.4% in the third quarter, exceeding market expectations, with consumer spending and business equipment investment increasing by 3.8% and 20.9% respectively. The September PCE price index rose 3.6% year-on-year, up from August’s 3.4%. The robust growth and persistent inflation pose a challenge to Federal Reserve Chair Waller’s assessment that the economy is not overheating. This week, the Federal Reserve voted 10 to 2 to hold interest rates steady at 3.75% to 4%. Waller argued that technological advances like AI could boost productivity, so faster growth alone does not mean inflationary pressures are rising. As of Friday, market pricing indicated an approximately 80% chance of a 25-basis-point rate hike in December. KPMG chief economist Diane Swonk noted that inflation remains widespread, particularly concentrated in the services sector which is slower to respond to interest rate changes, and it’s unclear whether the modest cooling will ease its stickiness. She warned that tighter financial conditions stem in part from market expectations of future rate hikes, and actual policy action is still needed to address this. BNY Investments chief economist Vincent Reinhart projected that the Fed still needs two more rate hikes, and there is a risk of additional hikes amid elevated oil prices.

Prominent trader Killa: Binance hack incident could mark the market bottom, still bullish on the market outlook.
Renowned trader Killa posted that the collapse of FTX marked the market bottom, and the Binance hack would do the same. He noted the market may take some time to digest temporary shocks and rebalance, but remains bullish on the longer-term market outlook. Killa argues that driving a significant price rally is more conducive to recouping losses than letting prices continue to fall, and expects Binance to take corresponding actions. He added that Binance holds billions of dollars in Bitcoin, giving it the financial capacity to build billions of dollars in long positions that may not be visible to retail investors. Additionally, he speculates that Binance may have generated around $1 billion in profits from liquidations, slippage, and trading fees.

TLDR HTX, formerly Huobi, has left the UK after settling the FCA’s case over illegal crypto promotions. UK users can no longer deposit, trade, or open new accounts on the exchange. Eligible users must request a one-time, 48-hour window to withdraw their remaining assets. Huobi Global agreed to High Court undertakings that run until Oct. 21, 2031. The settlement terms are confidential and include no admission of wrongdoing. Crypto exchange HTX has left the UK after reaching a settlement with the Financial Conduct Authority. The case focused on how the exchange, formerly known as Huobi, promoted its services to UK consumers.
The FCA announced the outcome on Oct. 29, 2026. The regulator said HTX is no longer active in the country and will not target, solicit or actively seek to engage UK consumers.
UK customers can no longer make deposits or trade on the platform. New UK users are also blocked from signing up.
What UK Customers Need to Do According to HTX’s UK service notice, accounts identified as UK accounts cannot transact across its products and services. Eligible individuals who still hold assets must contact customer support to request a one-time, 48-hour withdrawal window.
Access to that window is not automatic. It depends on the conditions of the applicable Personal Remittances General Licence, along with HTX’s identity, ownership, sanctions, anti-money laundering, fraud and account-security checks.
Approved users must withdraw their remaining assets themselves within the 48 hours. They can submit transactions for different asset types, but each one is subject to wallet, blockchain and security controls.
HTX says it will not transfer assets on behalf of users. Accounts will be closed once all assets are withdrawn.
The notice tells affected users to email [email protected] from their registered email address and confirm personal use. Reporting duties to HM Treasury or another authority may also apply.
A High Court order dated Oct. 27 records undertakings from Huobi Global S.A. that last until Oct. 21, 2031. Under them, the company will not knowingly communicate, or cause others to communicate, financial promotions that break section 21 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000.
The undertakings cover HTX websites, apps and social media. The 2031 date applies only to these commitments and does not set a date for when trading could restart.
The FCA said the settlement terms are confidential. It added that the deal involves no admission of liability or wrongdoing by Huobi Global or anyone else.
Further proceedings in the case are stayed except for enforcement. Either side can ask the court to enforce the settlement without filing a new claim.
The FCA began legal proceedings on Oct. 21, 2025, and announced the action publicly on Feb. 10, 2026. At the time, it called the case its first enforcement action against a crypto firm for illegally marketing products to UK consumers.
The regulator said HTX had repeatedly failed to engage with it. It also asked social media companies to block HTX accounts for UK users and sought the removal of its apps from the UK Google Play and Apple stores.
HTX was placed on the FCA warning list in October 2023. In May 2026, the UK government separately designated Huobi Global S.A. under its Russia sanctions regime, which is distinct from the promotions case.
Steve Smart, executive director of enforcement and market oversight at the FCA, said being based overseas “does not put them beyond the reach of UK law.” He added, “The message to other firms is clear: follow the rules or face the consequences.”
The FCA is urging consumers to check a firm’s permissions using its Firm Checker tool. It also reminded the public that cryptoassets are high-risk investments.

Presentation to explore the potential of RNA-splicing payloads to drive broad anti-tumor effects through direct cell killing along with immune activation
Satyajit Mitra, Executive Director, Head of Oncology, to discuss differentiated payload mechanisms and preclinical findings supporting next-generation ADC development
TAMPA, Fla. and LONDON, Oct. 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Akari Therapeutics, Plc (Nasdaq: AKTX), an oncology biotechnology company developing antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) with a novel RNA splicing disrupting payload, today announced that Satyajit Mitra, Executive Director, Head of Oncology, will deliver a presentation at the 3rd Annual ADC Payload Summit. The conference will take place November 4–6, 2026, in Boston, Massachusetts.
The presentation will explore RNA-splicing modulation as an alternative ADC payload mechanism designed both to induce cancer-cell death and activate antitumor immunity. It will address the scientific rationale, engineering considerations and preclinical evidence supporting this approach, including the potential to differentiate from ADCs utilizing traditional microtubule and topoisomerase inhibitor payloads.
Akari’s proprietary PH1 payload is a spliceosome modulator designed to disrupt RNA splicing within cancer cells. In preclinical models, this approach has demonstrated cancer-cell killing together with activation of innate and adaptive immune responses. Given its unique biology and engineering, the PH1 payload could play a key role in the emerging concept of ADC therapy sequencing after patients lose response to ADCs with traditional payloads. PH1 serves as the foundation for Akari’s differentiated ADC pipeline, including lead candidate AKTX-101, a TROP2-PH1 ADC.
“Advancing ADC innovation requires exploring novel mechanisms that can improve outcomes for patients,” said Abizer Gaslightwala, President and Chief Executive Officer of Akari Therapeutics. “Our PH1 platform is designed to combine targeted cancer-cell killing with immune activation, offering a differentiated approach to ADC development. We look forward to sharing the scientific rationale and preclinical findings behind our RNA-splicing payload strategy with researchers and industry leaders focused on the next generation of ADCs.”

About Akari Therapeutics
Akari Therapeutics is an oncology biotechnology company developing next-generation antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) with a unique payload, PH1, which targets RNA splicing. Utilizing its innovative ADC discovery platform, the Company has the ability to generate ADC candidates and optimize them based on the desired application to any antigen target of interest. Akari’s lead candidate, AKTX-101, targets the Trop2 receptor on cancer cells with a proprietary linker, enabling it to deliver its novel PH1 payload directly into the tumor with minimal off-target effects. Unlike current ADCs that use microtubule inhibitors and DNA-damaging agents as their payloads, PH1 is a novel payload that is a spliceosome modulator designed to disrupt RNA splicing within cancer cells. This splicing modulation has been shown in preclinical animal models to induce cancer cell death while activating both the innate and adaptive immune systems to drive robust and durable activity. In preclinical studies, AKTX-101 has been shown to have significant activity and prolonged survival relative to ADCs with traditional payloads. Additionally, AKTX-101 has the potential to be synergistic with checkpoint inhibitors and has demonstrated prolonged survival as both a single agent and in combination with checkpoint inhibitors. The PH1 payload has also been demonstrated to be very active against cancer cells with key oncogenic drivers such as KRAS, BRAF, AR-V7, FGFR3 fusions, and others. The Company has initiated IND enabling studies for AKTX-101 with a goal of starting its First-In-Human trial by mid-2027. Akari is also developing AKTX-102, an ADC candidate targeting CEACAM5 (Carcinoembryonic Antigen-related Cell Adhesion Molecule-5), a well-validated tumor antigen broadly expressed across multiple solid tumors. AKTX-102 is designed to leverage Akari’s proprietary PH1 spliceosome-modulating payload and a novel antibody construct to enable differentiated tumor cell killing and immune activation.

BootCAHmp® delivers evidence-based education to strengthen understanding of classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia through interactive learning and real-world patient casesDiscoverCAH™ provides immersive virtual experiences to expand knowledge of classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia through realistic patient scenarios, /PRNewswire/ -- Neurocrine Biosciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: NBIX) today announced the launch of educational resources designed to help healthcare providers strengthen their understanding of classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia. The offerings include bootCAHmp®, an interactive, educational course that builds foundational clinical knowledge, and DiscoverCAH™, a virtual patient case experience that enables healthcare providers to apply their knowledge of the condition through realistic clinical decision-making scenarios.
Classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a rare genetic condition most commonly caused by 21-hydroxylase deficiency that requires lifelong glucocorticoid replacement therapy and can present long-term treatment and management challenges. Because many clinicians have limited exposure to patients with CAH, access to educational resources that integrate foundational learning with clinical application can help build knowledge about patient management.
"Whether they care for congenital adrenal hyperplasia patients routinely or encounter the condition only occasionally, these educational resources are designed to help clinicians feel equipped to recognize, manage and navigate the challenges of this lifelong disease," said Eiry W. Roberts, M.D., Chief Medical Officer, Neurocrine Biosciences. "BootCAHmp and DiscoverCAH were developed with leading experts to provide complementary learning experiences combining foundational scientific education with real-world clinical scenarios, helping healthcare providers deepen their understanding of this complex disease."
Healthcare professionals can preview and register for bootCAHmp at www.cahcourse.learnworlds.com, and can access DiscoverCAH at www.DiscoverCAH.com.
Education Grounded in Real-World Clinical Practice: bootCAHmp
BootCAHmp is a self-paced, interactive, asynchronous educational course designed to enhance clinical understanding of CAH through evidence-based learning and real-world patient cases, developed in collaboration with endocrinologists Maya Lodish, M.D., M.H.Sc., Professor of Pediatrics, Division Chief of Pediatric Endocrinology at the University of California, San Francisco and Ricardo Correa, M.D., Program Director, Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism Fellowship at the Cleveland Clinic.
The curriculum currently includes two modules, through which healthcare providers can explore topics on disease pathophysiology, diagnostic approaches and the role of glucocorticoids and crinecerfont in the management and treatment of classic CAH. Interactive clinical scenarios and de-identified patient cases help to reinforce key learnings. Additional modules are planned for future launches.
"This hands-on course uses real patient cases to illustrate the impact of classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia on patients while helping clinicians build a strong foundation for managing this complex condition," Dr. Lodish said. "It is a practical and comprehensive way to expand clinical knowledge of a disease that healthcare providers may not frequently encounter."
Virtual Patient Case Experiences for Interactive Clinical Learning: DiscoverCAH
DiscoverCAH is an interactive virtual patient case experience designed to help healthcare providers apply their clinical knowledge in realistic classic CAH management scenarios. It was developed in collaboration with leading endocrinologists, including Selma Feldman Witchel, M.D., Professor of Pediatrics Emerita at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh and the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine.
Through self-directed learning and virtual patient avatars based on clinical study and real patient cases, DiscoverCAH enables healthcare providers to practice clinical decision making in real-world CAH management scenarios, including the use of crinecerfont and glucocorticoid dose reduction.
"Classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia presents differently from patient to patient and clinicians may not have many opportunities to gain experience managing a variety of cases," said Vivian H. Lin, M.D., Executive Medical Director, Medical Affairs, Neurocrine Biosciences. "DiscoverCAH gives healthcare professionals a chance to learn while working through realistic management scenarios without any clinical risk to patients."
BootCAHmp and DiscoverCAH are available at no cost to healthcare professionals.
The healthcare professionals who participated in the development of bootCAHmp and DiscoverCAH were compensated by Neurocrine Biosciences, Inc.
About Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is a rare genetic condition that results in an enzyme deficiency that alters the production of adrenal steroid hormones, such as cortisol, aldosterone and adrenal androgens. Severe enzyme deficiency leads to an inability of the adrenal glands to produce enough cortisol and, in approximately 75% of cases, aldosterone. Because individuals with CAH are typically still able to produce androgens, the unused precursors that would normally be used to make cortisol instead result in the production of excess amounts of androgens. If left untreated, CAH can result in adrenal crisis and even death.
Exogenous glucocorticoids (GCs) are necessary to correct the endogenous cortisol deficiency, but historically, doses higher than those needed for cortisol replacement (supraphysiologic) have been used to lower the elevated levels of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and adrenal androgens. However, GC treatment at supraphysiologic doses has been associated with serious and significant complications of steroid excess, including metabolic issues such as weight gain and diabetes, cardiovascular disease and osteoporosis. Additionally, long-term treatment with supraphysiologic GCs may have psychological and cognitive impacts, such as changes in mood and memory. Adrenal androgen excess has been associated with abnormal bone growth and development in pediatric patients, female health problems such as excess facial hair growth and menstrual irregularities, in addition to cardiometabolic and fertility issues in both sexes. The symptoms of high ACTH may include testicular adrenal rest tumors (TARTs).
About CRENESSITY® (crinecerfont)
CRENESSITY is a potent and selective oral corticotropin-releasing factor type 1 receptor (CRF1) antagonist that reduces and controls excess adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and adrenal androgens through a non-glucocorticoid (GC) mechanism for the treatment of classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). Antagonism of CRF1 receptors in the pituitary has been shown to decrease ACTH levels, which in turn decreases the production of adrenal androgens and potentially the symptoms associated with CAH. The robust clinical study data demonstrate that lowering adrenal androgen levels with CRENESSITY enables lower, more physiologic dosing of GCs to replace missing cortisol.
CRENESSITY comes in capsules and an oral solution. For adults 18 years of age and older, the recommended dosage is 100 mg twice daily taken orally with a meal. For pediatric patients four to 17 years of age weighing less than 55 kg (121 lbs), the recommended dosage is based on body weight and is administered twice daily, taken orally with a meal. For pediatric patients weighing more than 55 kg (121 lbs), the recommended dosage is 100 mg twice daily taken orally with a meal. Healthcare providers can work with patients to determine the appropriate formulation for use depending on patient needs. Patients receiving CRENESSITY should continue GC therapy for cortisol replacement.
About bootCAHmp®
BootCAHmp is an interactive educational course designed to expand clinical understanding of classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia through evidence-based educational content, practical learning modules and de-identified patient cases. The course was developed in collaboration with endocrinologists Dr. Maya Lodish and Dr. Ricardo Correa.
About DiscoverCAH™
DiscoverCAH is an interactive educational platform that simulates the management of classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia through virtual patient case experiences. Developed in collaboration with leading endocrinologists including Dr. Selma Feldman Witchel, the platform allows healthcare professionals to explore clinical scenarios and practice clinical decision-making in a self-directed educational environment.
Important Information
Approved Uses
CRENESSITY® (crinecerfont) is a prescription medicine used together with glucocorticoids (steroids) to control androgen (testosterone-like hormone) levels in adults and children 4 years of age and older with classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH).
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Do not take CRENESSITY if you:
Are allergic to crinecerfont, or any of the ingredients in CRENESSITY.
CRENESSITY may cause serious side effects, including:

Binance has confirmed a major security breach after attackers sent unauthorised withdrawals worth roughly $5.7 billion across the Bitcoin, Ethereum and TRON networks. The exchange said early findings point to a hacked laptop belonging to a DevOps engineer, which gave the attacker access to a service container used to submit withdrawals. Binance said it has found no sign that wallet private keys were exposed. Losses include about $1.45 billion in Bitcoin and $875 million in Ether, according to The Kobeissi Letter. If confirmed, it would be the largest crypto hack on record, far above Bybit’s $1.5 billion loss in February 2025. Tether and Circle have frozen part of the stolen stablecoins. Co-founder Changpeng Zhao said user funds are safe and that he expects all losses to be covered. Bitcoin slipped below $78,500.

Kripto para piyasası, Binance‘e yönelik milyarlarca dolarlık hack iddialarının ardından sert satış baskısıyla karşı karşıya kaldı. Bitcoin fiyatı 76.350 dolara kadar gerileyerek 18 Eylül’den bu yana en düşük seviyesini gördü. Piyasadaki düşüşle birlikte son 24 saatte 230 binden fazla yatırımcı tasfiye edilirken toplam likidasyon miktarı 1,52 milyar dolara yükseldi. Bu tutarın 1,36 milyar dolarlık bölümü ise Binance hack haberinin ardından gerçekleşti.
Bitcoin Fiyatı Binance Hacki Sonrası 76.350 Dolara Düştü Kripto para piyasasında satış baskısı, Binance’in büyük çaplı bir güvenlik saldırısının hedefi olduğunu doğrulamasının ardından hız kazandı. Bazı zincir üstü analizlerde platformdan 6 milyar doların üzerinde varlığın çıkarıldığı öne sürülürken, gelişme yatırımcıların risk iştahını olumsuz etkiledi. Bitcoin, düşüşün öncesinde 82.000 dolarlık direnç seviyesini aşmayı denemiş ancak başarılı olamamıştı. FED’in son FOMC toplantısının tamamlanmasından önce başlayan geri çekilme, önce 80.500 dolar seviyesine kadar ilerledi. Binance hack haberinin ardından ise satışlar derinleşti ve BTC 76.350 dolara kadar geriledi. Böylece Bitcoin, 18 Eylül’den bu yana en düşük seviyesini kaydetti. Sonrasında bir miktar toparlanan lider kripto para, 78.000 doların üzerinde işlem görmeye başladı.

Bitcoin’deki değer kaybı, altcoin piyasasına da yansıdı. Ethereum son 24 saatte yaklaşık yüzde 3 gerileyerek 2.250 doların altında kalırken BNB yüzde 4’ün üzerinde değer kaybederek 715 dolar seviyesine indi. XRP ise 1,25 dolara kadar geriledi. Büyük kripto paraların genelinde görülen satış baskısına rağmen bazı altcoinler pozitif ayrışmayı başardı. Özellikle piyasanın en büyük iki gizlilik odaklı kripto parası ZEC ve XMR, düşüşe rağmen yükseliş kaydeden varlıklar arasında yer aldı. Öte yandan Binance’in önemli rakiplerinden Hyperliquid’in yerel tokeni HYPE, ABD’deki olumlu gelişmelerin etkisiyle yüzde 17’nin üzerinde yükseldi. Böylece piyasanın büyük bölümü düşüş yaşarken HYPE dikkat çeken pozitif performanslardan birini sergiledi.
Kripto Para Piyasasında 1,52 Milyar Dolarlık Likidasyon Binance hack haberinin ardından kripto para piyasasında kaldıraçlı işlemlerde büyük çaplı tasfiyeler yaşandı. Son 24 saatlik verilere göre toplam likidasyon miktarı 1,52 milyar dolara ulaştı. Bu tutarın yaklaşık 1,36 milyar dolarlık kısmı Binance saldırısının ardından gerçekleşti. Tasfiyelerin büyük bölümünü yükseliş beklentisiyle pozisyon açan yatırımcılar oluşturdu. Bitcoin ve Ethereum, likidasyon miktarında ilk iki sırada yer aldı.
Bitcoin pozisyonlarında yaklaşık 482 milyon dolar, Ethereum işlemlerinde ise 365 milyon dolar değerinde tasfiye gerçekleşti. Bu rakamlar, piyasadaki sert düşüşün özellikle kaldıraçlı uzun pozisyonlar üzerinde ciddi baskı oluşturduğunu gösteriyor. Fiyatların hızla gerilemesi, yatırımcıların teminat seviyelerinin yetersiz kalmasına ve pozisyonlarının otomatik olarak kapatılmasına neden oldu.
240 Bine Yakın Yatırımcı Tasfiye Edildi Son 24 saatte yaklaşık 240 bin yatırımcının pozisyonu tasfiye edildi. Gerçekleşen en büyük tekil likidasyon işleminin ise Binance platformunda olduğu ve 11 milyon doların üzerinde değer taşıdığı bildirildi. Binance hack olayıyla başlayan belirsizlik, Bitcoin’deki sert düşüş ve kaldıraçlı pozisyonların tasfiyesi kripto piyasasında baskıyı artırdı. Önümüzdeki süreçte yatırımcıların odağında Binance’in güvenlik soruşturmasından gelecek yeni açıklamalar ve Bitcoin’in 76.000-78.000 dolar bölgesindeki fiyat hareketleri olacak.

Prominent trader Killa: Binance hack incident could mark the market bottom, still bullish on the market outlook.
Renowned trader Killa posted that the collapse of FTX marked the market bottom, and the Binance hack would do the same. He noted the market may take some time to digest temporary shocks and rebalance, but remains bullish on the longer-term market outlook. Killa argues that driving a significant price rally is more conducive to recouping losses than letting prices continue to fall, and expects Binance to take corresponding actions. He added that Binance holds billions of dollars in Bitcoin, giving it the financial capacity to build billions of dollars in long positions that may not be visible to retail investors. Additionally, he speculates that Binance may have generated around $1 billion in profits from liquidations, slippage, and trading fees.

Analysis: Binance is currently replenishing its holdings of stolen altcoins, and may purchase tokens including XRP, SOL, UNI and others.
According to Binance CEO He Yi’s disclosure, Binance is acquiring altcoins that exactly match its stolen assets via over-the-counter (OTC) and on-exchange trading to complete its Proof of Reserves (PoR) process, and will update on progress once purchases are finalized. Combined with this statement and the already disclosed stolen asset records, these include 233.46 million XRP (valued at ~$296 million), 970,500 SOL (~$96 million), and 46.4 million TRX (~$16 million). Additionally, the hacker has dumped seven tokens—UNI, ENA, PEPE, LINK, AAVE, ONDO, WLD—converting them into 70,480 ETH for a total transaction value of ~$158.25 million. The dump amounts for UNI, ENA, PEPE, and LINK stand at ~$39.63 million, ~$33.93 million, ~$31.66 million, and ~$26.05 million respectively. Other stolen assets also include 74.56 million ARB (~$11.54 million), 714.911 million FUN (~$6.29 million), 87.853 million ZAMA (~$6.02 million), 3.602 million ZRO (~$5.69 million), and 3.382 billion RSR (~$5.02 million).

Analysis: Traders purchase Bitcoin put options following the Binance hack, with strike prices concentrated between $74,000 and $78,000
After the Binance hack, large traders ramped up their positions in Bitcoin put options for hedging. Nicolas Quatravaux, head of Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) at Paradigm, said that within 8 hours of the incident, the notional value of BTC block trades on the platform reached roughly $590 million, equivalent to half of the related block trading volume on Deribit in the same period, with trades clearly skewed toward put options. The first large trade took place at 20:38 UTC, before the news was made public: a purchase of put options covering 250 BTC, expiring October 31, with a strike price of $78,000, with a notional size of around $20 million. Three minutes later, another buy of the same contract incurred a cost about 35% higher. Buy orders were mainly concentrated on strike prices between $74,000 and $78,000, with most expiring this week and mid-November. Notably, two put option trades expiring mid-November with a strike price of $74,000 each covered 1,000 BTC, totaling a notional size of around $155 million. The report argues that this move is more of a hedge against further short-term pullbacks rather than a bet on an extreme market crash. Meanwhile, call options expiring in March were still being traded in the market, indicating not all traders are taking a defensive stance. Standard Chartered warned that market weakness could persist, and a new market bottom may not form until incident details are clarified and relevant exchanges and protocols unfreeze the involved tokens.
BNB, the native token of Binance and BNB Chain, faced intensified scrutiny from investors following a high-profile exploit of Binance’s hot wallet on October 29, 2026. The breach set off a sharp decline in BNB’s price, compounding uncertainty around the asset’s outlook as users and analysts assess the immediate and longer-term impact.
BNB price action and market overviewAt 11:16 UTC on October 30, BNB was trading at $700.34, according to CoinGecko. The token’s price has dropped by 36.71% over the past year and posted a 5.32% loss in the previous 24 hours after the hack.
Among the ten largest cryptocurrencies, CryptoTicker reported that BNB was the weakest performer in the wake of the security incident. Analysts have estimated the stolen amount from the recent hack between $2.8 billion and $5.9 billion, reflecting ongoing uncertainty about the final tally.
CryptoTicker described BNB as “the weakest of the ten largest cryptocurrencies over 24 hours after the October 29 hack,” as estimates of the stolen funds continued to shift.
BNB’s current circulating supply stands near 131.5 million, with a maximum supply of 200 million. On October 19, BNB Chain executed its 37th quarterly token burn, permanently removing over 1.6 million tokens from circulation. The all-time high price for BNB, according to CoinGecko, was $1,369.99 reached on October 13, 2025.
MetricValuePrice (Oct 30, 2026)$700.341-year change-36.71%24-hour volume$3.11 billionMarket cap$92.1 billion (rank 4)All-time high$1,369.99 (Oct 13, 2025)24-hour range$682.36 – $753.04Market sentiment remains cautious, with the Crypto Fear & Greed Index signaling “fear” at a reading of 30 on October 30. CoinGecko and other data providers occasionally present differing figures for all-time highs and short-term changes, largely due to variations in data collection windows.
Recent developments: ETF interest, tech upgrades, and network growthDespite the recent setback, BNB Chain reported network revenue growth of 54% in Q3 2026. A CoinMarketCap summary of Blockworks data highlighted a 173% surge in smart contract deployments, reaching 12.3 million for the quarter. Additionally, tokenized stock volumes on BNB Chain hit $4.63 billion as of October 29, marking a leadership position in this market segment.
In May 2026, asset managers Grayscale and VanEck amended their US spot BNB ETF filings. Bloomberg ETF analyst James Seyffart suggested BNB could be next in line for approval of a US-listed spot ETF. October also saw BNB ETF net inflows hit $98.89 million, the highest since May. Meanwhile, Hong Kong-based Futu Securities enabled direct BNB transactions for qualified clients on October 23.
Bloomberg ETF analyst James Seyffart suggested BNB could follow in the footsteps of other cryptocurrencies with the potential approval of a US-listed spot ETF.
BNB Chain’s planned “New L1,” described in October 2026 documentation, outlines an EVM-compatible network offering sub-second finality and uses BNB for gas, staking, and governance. This multi-validator devnet is still under development and not available for public use.
Mini dictionary: BNB Chain is a decentralized blockchain ecosystem that includes BNB Smart Chain (BSC) and related products. It supports smart contracts, decentralized apps, and a wide range of digital assets, with BNB as its primary utility token.
On the technology front, the Jenner hard fork went live on BSC testnet in late October. This upgrade introduces a “Payment Lane” that dedicates 5% of block gas to payments, though it currently remains in the testing phase.
User activity declines, network risk growsWhile network revenue and smart contract deployments posted strong gains in Q3, BNB Smart Chain’s average daily active addresses dropped 14% from the previous quarter, reaching 2.10 million. BNB Smart Chain processed a total of 1.51 billion transactions over the same period.
The hack on October 29 remains a key risk factor. The incident resulted in an estimated $1.5 billion in liquidated derivatives positions, largely impacting traders with leveraged long positions. Chainalysis and CryptoTicker provided divergent estimates of the total stolen funds, contributing to uncertainty.
Binance’s Co-CEO Yi He pledged to cover all user losses resulting from the exploit. However, implementation details for this commitment remain unclear.
Price forecasts and outlookAnalyst price targets for BNB range widely. Axi referenced projections between $566 and $1,755. CoinStats, in a September update, gave a range of $680 to $1,050 for the remainder of 2026, with an average estimate of $860, though this was issued prior to the hack. Cryptopolitan projected highs of $1,160 and an average near $663 by year-end. Each forecast is speculative and not a guarantee of future price movement.
BNB continues to carry the risks typical of any crypto asset including significant price volatility, exposure to potential smart contract bugs, and evolving regulatory challenges. As always, individual tax and regulatory situations may vary depending on jurisdiction.

The cryptocurrency market is going through the largest robbery in its history, but industry veterans manage to find a reason for harsh dark humor in it.
Former Ripple CTO and creator of the XRP Ledger network David Schwartz reacted to the Binance exchange hack with a caustic joke aimed at his main historical competitor, the Stellar (XLM) blockchain.

Schwartz commented on a post by EasyA co-founder Dom Kwok, who complained that hackers had wiped out his balances, leaving only Litecoin untouched. The former Ripple CTO, in turn, quipped: “These sick b*stards dropped an extra 517 XLM into my Binance account!”
David Schwartz trolls Binance hackers with a Stellar joke in reply to Dom Kwok, Source: @JoelKatz on X.comThe sarcasm is tied to a long-running corporate conflict: Stellar was created by former Ripple co-founder Jed McCaleb, and the idea that hackers forcibly “credit” victims with competitors’ tokens instantly went viral.
Jokes aside, almost $300 million in XRP was just stolenDespite Schwartz’s ironic tone, the blow landed directly on Ripple’s own ecosystem. The attackers instantly withdrew 233.46 million XRP tokens (about $296 million) from Binance’s hot wallets. It is impossible to return them: the XRP Ledger architecture excludes forced freezing of the native token at the protocol level.
However, with the company’s second asset, the situation turned out differently. Ripple Senior Vice President Jack McDonald announced that the company had detected the movement of stolen Ripple USD (RLUSD) stablecoin and urgently blocked the attackers’ addresses.

According to OnchainLens monitoring, trader Long Loyalist deposited 4.9 million USDC into Hyperliquid approximately one hour ago, and placed a buy order for around 9,630 ETH (valued at roughly $20 million). The trader currently holds about 4,860 ETH in long positions (worth ~$10.94 million), with unrealized profit and loss of approximately -$4.63 million across 39 open positions, and historical profit and loss of roughly -$4.29 million.
Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, has suggested that the emergence of superintelligent artificial intelligence agents may pose a significant risk to cryptocurrency security. Sharing his views on X, Musk predicted these advanced AI agents could begin stealing digital assets for their own benefit, rather than acting on behalf of human operators.
AI risks highlighted as Binance suffers major breachMusk’s comments followed a large-scale security breach at Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume. The incident reportedly involved approximately $6.3 billion in digital assets. Binance disclosed the scale of the loss and noted its ongoing efforts to recover and freeze stolen funds.
Crypto commentator Blaney provided further details on X, explaining that stablecoin issuers Tether and Circle intervened to freeze billions of dollars in USDT and USDC in connection with the hack. Despite these measures, the attacker reportedly accessed and moved Ethereum (ETH) before all assets could be locked down.
According to the report, the hacker moved $60 million in USDT to Aave, a decentralized lending protocol, and borrowed approximately $44.6 million in wrapped ETH. By converting centralized stablecoins to ETH, the attacker circumvented attempts by Tether and Circle to freeze the funds, since Ethereum operates without a centralized issuer capable of blocking assets.
Mini dictionary: Aave is a decentralized, non-custodial lending protocol on Ethereum that allows users to lend and borrow various cryptocurrencies without intermediaries. This platform enables instant loans based on smart contracts.
Superintelligent AI agents could at some point begin acquiring crypto independently, not to serve human interests, but for their own accumulation of wealth.
Funds frozen following Binance attackIn response to the breach, Binance worked with blockchain partners to freeze an estimated $3 billion in affected digital assets. Tether and Circle’s actions to block billions of dollars in USDT and USDC demonstrated the advantages and limitations of centralized stablecoins during active security threats. While centralized issuers can halt transactions and lock accounts, decentralized assets like ETH remain outside such control, complicating recovery efforts.
AssetTypeFrozen by IssuerAmount AffectedUSDTStablecoin (Centralized)YesBillionsUSDCStablecoin (Centralized)YesBillionsETHCryptocurrency (Decentralized)NoNot specifiedBinance stated that efforts to limit the impact were ongoing, following what has become one of the largest security incidents in the history of digital asset exchanges. The company underscored its commitment to cooperating with blockchain partners to track and freeze remaining funds.
Binance confirmed the total impact of the breach reached $6.3 billion, and announced that around $3 billion worth of affected assets have already been frozen in collaboration with blockchain partners.
Musk sees future threat from AI in digital asset spaceMusk’s remarks have drawn attention to the growing intersection between advanced artificial intelligence and cryptocurrency. He suggested that as AI continues to progress, the sophistication of threats facing digital asset platforms could escalate, potentially enabling machines to launch and execute attacks for their own benefit.
Discussions around the security of centralized and decentralized assets are gaining renewed urgency in light of this breach, particularly as stablecoin issuers and exchanges work to fortify safeguards against increasingly complex threats.
Circle plans to gradually reduce the burn limit for the legacy Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol (CCTP V1) starting October 31, 2026, and suspend the associated contracts on December 1, at which point USDC cross-chain transfers via the old route will no longer be possible. The new CCTP (formerly CCTP V2) uses independent contracts and APIs and is not backward compatible, so applications, wallets, and bridging services using the legacy version must proactively update their integrations. Circle stated it will maintain sufficient minting allowances to ensure all proven pending transfers are completed before the suspension, though specific limit tiers and intermediate adjustment dates have not been disclosed. Additionally, the Noble chain will not be integrated with the new CCTP; Circle plans to suspend its USDC contracts and remaining cross-chain routes on January 12, 2027. USDC holders on the Noble chain must withdraw their funds by that date. Circle will take a snapshot of remaining balances on the suspension day and launch manual redemptions starting January 13, with applicants required to meet compliance and security requirements and hold assets in self-custody wallets.

TLDR Circle will start lowering burn limits on its legacy Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol (CCTP V1) on October 31, 2026. The old contracts are set to be paused on December 1, 2026, ending crosschain USDC transfers through V1. Apps still on V1 must move to CCTP V2, which uses different contracts and APIs and is not backward compatible. Circle says pending redemptions will stay available, with minting capacity kept in place to process them before the pause. CCTP V2 offers Standard and Fast Transfer modes, programmable hooks, and support for 27 blockchains. Circle will begin winding down the legacy version of its Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol on October 31. The system, known as CCTP V1, moves the USDC stablecoin between blockchains.
Apps that still use it will face lower transfer limits through November. The old contracts are set to be paused on December 1, 2026.
Circle first announced the move away from V1 on November 14, 2025. It published the October to December timetable on August 27, 2026. The company says this gave the industry nearly a year of notice.
How the USDC Wind-Down Works CCTP moves USDC by burning it on one blockchain and minting it on another. A burn limit caps how much USDC can enter that process.
Starting October 31, Circle will reduce V1 burn limits. Performance will then decline gradually over about one month.
Circle’s migration guide says message limits will keep tightening until no new burns can begin. The goal is for transfer volume to reach zero before the contracts are fully paused.
Once the pause takes effect, any app still pointing to V1 will stop moving USDC across chains. Circle says migrating is required, not just recommended.
Pending redemptions will be handled differently. Circle says they will remain available during the phase-out.
The company plans to keep minting allowances above the total of pending attestations. An attestation is Circle’s signed approval for burned USDC to be minted on the destination chain. This is meant to let outstanding transfers finish before the full pause.
What Developers Need to Change CCTP V2, now simply called CCTP, uses separate contracts and APIs. Circle says it is not backward compatible with V1.
The guide lists new contracts, including TokenMessengerV2 and MessageTransmitterV2. The depositForBurn function now includes parameters for the allowed destination caller, maximum fee, and minimum finality threshold.
The attestation process also changes. Instead of pulling message bytes from a transaction and hashing them, apps can use the V2 messages endpoint with a transaction hash to get the message and attestation.
V2 offers Standard and Fast Transfer modes. Fast Transfer charges a variable fee based on the source chain.
The newer version also adds programmable hooks. These can trigger automatic actions on the destination blockchain after USDC arrives. CCTP V2 supports 27 blockchains and also handles the EURC stablecoin.
Some features do not carry over. The replaceDepositForBurn function has been removed with no V2 equivalent.
Circle also offers Arc App Kits as an optional tool. The kits handle routine contract address, interface, and attestation work for developers.
Circle has asked developers who run into problems to contact its team on Discord. As of this week, the October 31 limit cuts and the December 1 contract pause both remain on schedule.
Pump.fun has integrated the Arbitrum network into its trading app.
Users can now trade supported Arbitrum tokens with USDC without bridging funds manually.
Whale Factor data shows PUMP’s FOMO new address count fell from 61,700 to 55,300 over the past month.
Analyst Tranquility Crypto named $0.00525 as the key resistance level for PUMP.
$0.003 has been flagged as a possible downside level if resistance holds.
Pump.fun has added the Arbitrum network to its trading app. The update lets users trade supported Arbitrum tokens directly from their USDC wallet.
Before this change, traders needed to move funds between blockchains by hand. The new setup removes that manual bridging step.
The launch comes as the platform’s native token, PUMP, trades below a key resistance level. Traders are watching to see whether the price moves higher or slides toward $0.003.
Pump.fun Brings Arbitrum Into Its App
Pump.fun announced the integration in a post on X. The company said the upgrade supports fast transactions and low fees.
Arbitrum is now live on the Pumpfun app!
Trade any Arbitrum token straight from your USDC balance – no bridging needed. Enjoy the fastest crosschain speeds and the cheapest fees.
Welcome to the Pumpfun app, @arbitrum pic.twitter.com/USrhMlyNih
— Pump.fun (@Pumpfun) October 28, 2026
The goal is to make cross-chain trading simpler. Users can now reach tokens on a different blockchain with fewer steps.
The move widens Pump.fun’s reach beyond its memecoin launch business. More supported networks give traders more tokens to find and trade in one place.
The announcement confirms that the feature is live. How much it gets used will depend on trading activity in the weeks ahead.
Pump.fun is one of several platforms competing for memecoin traders. Adding Arbitrum expands the list of tokens it offers to users who hold USDC.
According to Whale Factor, PUMP’s FOMO new address indicator dropped from 61,700 to 55,300 over the last month. The figure tracks new wallet activity tied to the token.
🐋 WHALE WATCH : $PUMP flipped FOMO in new addresses over the past month. PUMP pulled 61.7K FOMO dropped to 55.3K.
Pumpfuns app is gaining ground on the memecoin terminal that briefly took the lead. pic.twitter.com/nQIt2o46xf
— Whale Factor (@WhaleFactor) October 29, 2026
The decline shows lower activity on that measure. On its own, it does not confirm a drop in overall adoption of the platform or the token.
Whale Factor also suggested that Pump.fun’s app is catching up to a rival memecoin terminal that took an early lead. Confirming that would require direct comparisons of trading volume, users, and market share.
PUMP Price Faces Key Resistance
Crypto analyst Tranquility Crypto named $0.00525 as the level PUMP buyers need to reclaim. Moving back above it could improve the token’s short-term outlook.
A move that holds above that mark with rising trading volume would be stronger evidence of a turnaround. A brief price spike alone would carry less weight.
So far, no breakout has been confirmed. The token continues to struggle at that level.
If PUMP fails to clear resistance, selling pressure could continue. Tranquility Crypto pointed to $0.003 as a possible downside level.
As of October 30, PUMP remains below $0.00525. Traders are now watching usage of the new Arbitrum feature and whether the token can reclaim that resistance.

Prominent trader Killa: Binance hack incident could mark the market bottom, still bullish on the market outlook.
Renowned trader Killa posted that the collapse of FTX marked the market bottom, and the Binance hack would do the same. He noted the market may take some time to digest temporary shocks and rebalance, but remains bullish on the longer-term market outlook. Killa argues that driving a significant price rally is more conducive to recouping losses than letting prices continue to fall, and expects Binance to take corresponding actions. He added that Binance holds billions of dollars in Bitcoin, giving it the financial capacity to build billions of dollars in long positions that may not be visible to retail investors. Additionally, he speculates that Binance may have generated around $1 billion in profits from liquidations, slippage, and trading fees.

Analysis: Binance is currently replenishing its holdings of stolen altcoins, and may purchase tokens including XRP, SOL, UNI and others.
According to Binance CEO He Yi’s disclosure, Binance is acquiring altcoins that exactly match its stolen assets via over-the-counter (OTC) and on-exchange trading to complete its Proof of Reserves (PoR) process, and will update on progress once purchases are finalized. Combined with this statement and the already disclosed stolen asset records, these include 233.46 million XRP (valued at ~$296 million), 970,500 SOL (~$96 million), and 46.4 million TRX (~$16 million). Additionally, the hacker has dumped seven tokens—UNI, ENA, PEPE, LINK, AAVE, ONDO, WLD—converting them into 70,480 ETH for a total transaction value of ~$158.25 million. The dump amounts for UNI, ENA, PEPE, and LINK stand at ~$39.63 million, ~$33.93 million, ~$31.66 million, and ~$26.05 million respectively. Other stolen assets also include 74.56 million ARB (~$11.54 million), 714.911 million FUN (~$6.29 million), 87.853 million ZAMA (~$6.02 million), 3.602 million ZRO (~$5.69 million), and 3.382 billion RSR (~$5.02 million).

Analysis: Traders purchase Bitcoin put options following the Binance hack, with strike prices concentrated between $74,000 and $78,000
After the Binance hack, large traders ramped up their positions in Bitcoin put options for hedging. Nicolas Quatravaux, head of Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) at Paradigm, said that within 8 hours of the incident, the notional value of BTC block trades on the platform reached roughly $590 million, equivalent to half of the related block trading volume on Deribit in the same period, with trades clearly skewed toward put options.
The first large trade took place at 20:38 UTC, before the news was made public: a purchase of put options covering 250 BTC, expiring October 31, with a strike price of $78,000, with a notional size of around $20 million. Three minutes later, another buy of the same contract incurred a cost about 35% higher.
Buy orders were mainly concentrated on strike prices between $74,000 and $78,000, with most expiring this week and mid-November. Notably, two put option trades expiring mid-November with a strike price of $74,000 each covered 1,000 BTC, totaling a notional size of around $155 million.
The report argues that this move is more of a hedge against further short-term pullbacks rather than a bet on an extreme market crash. Meanwhile, call options expiring in March were still being traded in the market, indicating not all traders are taking a defensive stance. Standard Chartered warned that market weakness could persist, and a new market bottom may not form until incident details are clarified and relevant exchanges and protocols unfreeze the involved tokens.
Coinbase is removing USDT and 13 other stablecoins for retail customers across the European Economic Area, and the deadline to withdraw them is October 30, 2026. After that date, any affected balance left in an EEA account will be automatically converted into USDC at the market rate, according to Coinbase’s MiCA non-compliant stablecoins notice.
For a retail user in Frankfurt or Madrid who has been holding Tether’s USDT as a parking spot for cash, the change is abrupt. Buying, selling, and swapping the token was already switched off, and withdrawal is now the only door left open. It is a sharp single-exchange cull of dollar-pegged tokens since the European Union’s Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation, MiCA, finished its transition into force.
The 14 Assets Leaving Coinbase’s EEA PlatformCoinbase lists the full set of “MiCA-non-compliant stablecoin assets” as USDT, PAX, PYUSD, GUSD, GYEN, DAI, BUST, UST, RAI, PAXG, MUSD, USD1, USDS, and TGBP.
That list spans the biggest names in the stablecoin business. USDT comes from Tether, DAI and USDS from Sky, the DeFi issuer formerly known as MakerDAO, PYUSD from PayPal, GUSD from Gemini, PAX and PAXG from Paxos, and USD1 from World Liberty Financial, the crypto venture backed by Donald Trump. It also reaches smaller or legacy tokens — BUST, UST, RAI, MUSD, TGBP, and GYEN — that most European users will only remember from an old trade.
Why October 30, and Why the Deadline Is Finally HereThe cutoff is the operational end of a process that began months ago. Coinbase states plainly that “the MiCA transitional period for stablecoin issuers ended on July 1, 2026, and was not extended.” Once that window closed, venues in the bloc could no longer support stablecoins whose issuers had not secured MiCA authorisation. The European Securities and Markets Authority followed through in October, laying out a three-month window for platforms to remove non-compliant tokens — the USDT removal deadline ESMA set for EU platforms.
What Happens to a Balance Left Behind“On October 30, 2026, Coinbase will convert remaining affected balances at the market rate at the time of conversion,” the notice reads. The swap is one-way and one-time: balances are converted into USDC “where suitable,” or into another supported crypto asset or fiat currency where USDC is not. Coinbase flags that the conversion “may be a taxable event in some jurisdictions,” and that users, not the exchange, own whatever tax outcome follows.
There is a sharper warning for anyone who sends a restricted token back after the deadline. “Assets sent after October 30, 2026” will not be credited to the account, cannot be traded, converted, or transferred, and will not be included in the automatic conversion, the notice states. Recovery through Coinbase’s unsupported-crypto process is only available “where technically possible,” and even then it is “not guaranteed.”
What USDT’s Removal Does to the EEA Stablecoin RaceThe irony sits in the market caps. Tether’s USDT remains the world’s largest stablecoin at roughly $180.3 billion, more than 2.5 times the $71.3 billion of USDC, per CoinGecko data. Yet in the EEA the rules push exchange liquidity the other way: USDT, whose issuer has not obtained MiCA authorisation, is being retired on Coinbase, while USDC — issued by Circle, which is MiCA-authorised — becomes the default dollar token. A user holding USDT on Coinbase in the EEA is effectively being asked to convert the largest stablecoin in the world into the second-largest, because only the second one is legally welcome in the bloc.
The shift also lands on an exchange that European regulators have been watching closely. In October, Coinbase’s Irish unit was fined €3.25 million over e-money safeguarding failures, a reminder that Coinbase’s European operations are being held to the letter of the bloc’s payments rules.
What EEA Users Should Do Before the DeadlineThe practical path is narrow. First, check whether the account actually holds any of the 14 affected assets. Second, if it does, withdraw them to an external wallet before October 30 — but only to a wallet on a network the token actually lives on, because a withdrawal sent to the wrong chain cannot be recovered. Third, do not send any of the restricted tokens back to Coinbase after the deadline; they will not be credited. If a compliant dollar token is the goal, the simplest option is to let the automatic conversion happen and receive USDC.
The Skeptical Case: What This Does Not ChangeThe delisting is a big deal for Coinbase’s EEA retail users, but it does not mean USDT is dying. Tether’s token still settles billions in daily volume on exchanges across Asia, the Middle East, and beyond, and its roughly $180 billion market cap has barely moved. Coinbase is one venue among many, and USDT holders outside the EEA face no change at all.
Nor is the conversion a guarantee of exact face value. Coinbase converts “at the market rate at the time of conversion,” which for a stablecoin trading a fraction of a cent around its peg is usually close to par — but it is a market swap, not a redemption. The structural question is whether the rest of the EU’s exchanges follow Coinbase’s lead, and whether USDT ultimately loses meaningful European liquidity rather than regaining it through MiCA authorisation.
Frequently Asked Questions
When is the Coinbase USDT deadline for EEA users?October 30, 2026. Coinbase says buying, selling, and converting USDT and the 13 other affected assets is already restricted for EEA retail users, and any balance left after that date is automatically converted into USDC at the market rate.
What happens to my USDT if I do not withdraw it from Coinbase?On October 30, 2026, Coinbase will convert the remaining balance into USDC, or into another supported asset or currency where USDC is not suitable. It is a one-time conversion at the market rate at the time of conversion, and it may be a taxable event in some jurisdictions.
Which stablecoins is Coinbase removing in the EEA?The 14 assets are USDT, PAX, PYUSD, GUSD, GYEN, DAI, BUST, UST, RAI, PAXG, MUSD, USD1, USDS, and TGBP — stablecoins whose issuers have not obtained MiCA authorisation.
Can I still hold USDC on Coinbase?Yes. USDC is issued by Circle, which is MiCA-authorised, so it remains fully supported for EEA customers. Coinbase is effectively steering affected balances toward USDC as the compliant dollar token.
What happens if I send USDT to Coinbase after October 30?Coinbase says assets sent after the deadline will not be credited, cannot be traded or transferred, and will not be included in the automatic conversion. Recovery is only possible through the unsupported crypto recovery process, where technically available, and is not guaranteed.

Company continues to own and operate its business in Taiwan; believes it has regained compliance with the Nasdaq stockholders' equity requirement Taipei, Taiwan--(Newsfile Corp. - October 30, 2026) - TNL Mediagene (NASDAQ: TNMG) (the "Company"), a technology and digital media company providing AI-driven advertising, marketing technology, content commerce and data analytics solutions, and operating multi-language digital media brands across Asia, today announced that it has completed the previously announced sale of its Japanese business to MI Company Inc., a Japanese joint-stock company formed as the acquisition vehicle for an investor group led by Motoko Imada, the Company's former Chief Executive Officer and a former member of its board of directors, in a management buyout transaction.

OneMain Holdings (OMF - Free Report) came out with quarterly earnings of $1.51 per share, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.56 per share. This compares to earnings of $1.9 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.
This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of -3.21%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this consumer finance company would post earnings of $1.31 per share when it actually produced earnings of $1.31, delivering no surprise.
Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates two times.
OneMain, which belongs to the Zacks Financial - Consumer Loans industry, posted revenues of $1.15 billion for the quarter ended September 2026, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 1.51%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $1.07 billion. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates three times over the last four quarters.
The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call.
OneMain shares have lost about 12.2% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 12.8%.
What's Next for OneMain?While OneMain has underperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock?
There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.
Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.
Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for OneMain was unfavorable. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to underperform the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.
It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $1.77 on $1.16 billion in revenues for the coming quarter and $6.66 on $4.43 billion in revenues for the current fiscal year.
Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Financial - Consumer Loans is currently in the bottom 30% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.
Another stock from the same industry, Navient (NAVI - Free Report) , has yet to report results for the quarter ended September 2026. The results are expected to be released on November 4.
This student loan servicing company is expected to post quarterly earnings of $0.15 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -48.3%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 12.8% lower over the last 30 days to the current level.
Navient's revenues are expected to be $124.63 million, down 14.6% from the year-ago quarter.
Waste Management has raised its dividend every year since 2009, and the cash keeps flowing in, but a quiet volume problem is building beneath the surface that could force a reckoning for income investors counting on decades more of raises.
A retired person who owned Waste Management (NYSE:WM | WM Price Prediction) in 2024 collected $0.75 per share each quarter. In 2025, that check rose to $0.825. In 2026, it is $0.945. The company’s dividend history shows the quarterly payout has risen every year since 2009, and third-quarter results filed October 27, 2026 show the cash engine behind that streak is growing.
Free Cash Flow Covers the Dividend More Than 2.6 Times
WM generated $985M of free cash flow in the third quarter, up 20.71% year over year. Through nine months, free cash flow topped $3 billion, up more than 42%, while dividends paid totaled $1.14 billion. That is coverage of roughly 2.6 times. On the earnings call, finance chief David Reed laid out where the rest went:
“We allocated more than 90% of that free cash flow to shareholder returns during the first nine months of the year, repurchasing $1.58 billion of our shares and paying $1.14 billion in dividends.”
Management expects full-year free cash flow at the high end of its $3.75–$3.85B range, against roughly $1.5B in planned 2026 dividends.
Trash Pickup Hands WM Real Pricing Power
Waste collection is an essential service, and the numbers show it. Core price rose 5.8% in the quarter. An energy surcharge program recovers fuel costs with an approximately one-month lag, and operations chief Tara Hemmer said higher landfill costs, including those tied to new California legislation, can be passed through to customers. CEO Jim Fish summarized the quarter:
“The company grew operating EBITDA by 5.8%, grew revenue by 6.3%, continued to reduce our SG&A down to 9.3%, maintained operating EBITDA margins at 31% in the face of strong headwinds from fuel, and grew free cash flow by 20%.”
A Balance Sheet Sitting Inside the Target Zone
WM ended the quarter at 2.92 times leverage, inside its 2.5 to 3 times target. About 90% of its interest-rate exposure is fixed, a useful buffer after interest expense climbed to $912M in fiscal 2025 from $598M. The stock trades at $228.36, up 326.5% over ten years.
How Republic Services and GFL Stack Up
Republic Services (NYSE:RSG) runs the same strategy at a smaller scale. It pays $0.670 quarterly after an approximately 7% raise and guides to $2.540–$2.575 billion of adjusted free cash flow.
GFL Environmental (NYSE:GFL) sits on the growth side of the trade. Acquisitions drove 18.7% of third-quarter revenue growth, net leverage rose to 3.8x, and second-quarter dividends totaled just C$8.4 million. CEO Patrick Dovigi added an update:
“During the third quarter, we formed a Special Committee of independent directors to review unsolicited inbound proposals to take the Company private.”
For income seekers, WM offers the lower leverage and the longer verified raise record of the three.
Leadership Handoff, a Verdict and One Risk to Track
Fish retires in early January, passing the job to President John Morris, who indicated continuity:
“There are not going to be any big shifts. We’ve all worked together for a long time and built this strategy collectively.”
Verdict: With free cash flow covering the payout more than twice, leverage on target, and pricing running ahead of costs, WM looks equipped to keep raising its dividend for years. The risk to track is volume. Collection and Disposal volume fell 0.4% in the third quarter, full-year volume is tracking near negative 1%, and management named volume growth as the main uncertainty for 2027 margins. If shrinking volumes start to outrun price increases, future raises could get smaller.

Korean Won Forecast: Crédit Agricole Sees USD/KRW at 1,270 in 2027 Crédit Agricole expects the South Korean Won to gain against the US Dollar as strong exports and investment support further Bank of Korea tightening. The US Dollar to South Korean Won exchange rate edged lower on Thursday, trading around 1,339.30, as Crédit Agricole's upgraded forecasts pointed to a more substantial recovery in the Korean currency next year.
The bank now projects USD/KRW at 1,320 in December 2026 and 1,270 in December 2027.
Lower readings mean fewer won are needed to buy a Dollar, so the revised path represents a stronger Korean currency outlook.
Crédit Agricole's case combines the foreign-currency earnings generated by semiconductor exports with an economy strong enough to support another Bank of Korea rate increase.
Its analyst Yeon Jin Kim sees the trade surplus supplying a direct source of currency demand:
"A wide trade balance surplus is likely to support the KRW with exporters selling USD."
"We think Korea's annual exports are likely to exceed USD1trn this year for the first time, following the US, China and Germany."
Those export receipts become more useful to the won when companies convert Dollars into their domestic currency, rather than retaining the proceeds abroad.
A technology-led expansion with weaker spots The Bank of Korea's latest GDP release showed the economy expanding 1.0% in the third quarter compared with the previous three months.
Crédit Agricole highlights strong semiconductor activity in both exports and investment in facilities, including the equipment needed to increase production.
Its analysis also finds that domestic demand made a larger contribution to quarterly growth than in the spring, while faster imports reduced the net contribution from trade.
That mix helps explain why stronger export businesses can support the economy even when the headline trade contribution is not the largest driver of its quarterly acceleration.
Kim writes: "Considering strong Q3 GDP, we think Korea's annual 2026 GDP growth could be revised higher than our current forecast of 3.5%."
"Q4 growth may slow in QoQ terms with softer consumer sentiment but is likely to remain strong, supported by exports and facilities investment."
Households offer a less reassuring signal:
"Meanwhile, Korea's October consumer sentiment slightly softened to 105.4, from 106.6 in September with the equity market decline and continued geopolitical uncertainties in the Middle East. Consumer inflation expectations stayed unchanged at 2.7%."
The decline in confidence leaves a test for spending, particularly if weaker share prices and energy uncertainty persist beyond the latest quarter.
November tightening remains Crédit Agricole's call "The BOK showed strong confidence in Korea's GDP growth and signalled some positive momentum in Q4."
"Overall strong growth in Q3 and the BOK's comments support our view that the BOK is likely to hike by 25bp on 26 November, after staying unchanged in October."
That would provide a second source of potential support for the won by improving the return on Korean interest-bearing assets.
Crédit Agricole also distinguishes the headline inflation outlook from the underlying measure the central bank is watching.
It expects annual headline inflation to ease in October, but warns: "But as the BOK is more focused on core CPI inflation, the BOK may sound hawkish, if core CPI inflation accelerates from 2.8% in September."
Friday's September activity data need particular care in year-on-year comparisons.
Kim writes: "For September economic data, we note that there could be a base impact with fewer working days compared to a year ago."
"It would be interesting to see if construction investment is continuing to recover and if there are some weaknesses in retail sales despite relatively solid industrial production."
What This Means for USD/KRW Crédit Agricole's stronger-won forecast depends on export success translating into Dollar sales as well as economic growth. Large overseas revenues offer support, but the timing of their conversion can leave USD/KRW volatile between reporting periods.
A November hike would reinforce that support, while softer underlying inflation or weaker spending would make the policy contribution less certain. The bank's positive export assessment does not remove the weaker household evidence it identifies.
The next trade figures will test whether semiconductor strength is sustaining the expected surplus. If export demand stays firm while core inflation keeps the case for higher rates intact, the two main supports behind the revised currency path would remain in place.
