Federal Reserve Board Governor Christopher Waller said the US may need further rate hikes to bring inflation back to the 2% target in a more timely manner, but stressed that the pace of tightening should remain flexible, leaving room for the Fed to pause rate hikes this month.

If US economic data continue to meet expectations, the Fed is expected to raise interest rates further to support a more timely return of inflation to the 2% target, he said. However, rate hikes do not need to occur at consecutive meetings and should instead be implemented within a reasonable timeframe.

Nomura (8604.JP) and Daiwa Securities (8601.JP) forecast the rally in Japanese equities to continue into next year, but warned that the current market, stock prices and corporate earnings are all being driven by strong AI investment, and any reversal in the trend could pose significant risks.

Nomura CEO Kentaro Okuda projected the market to ascend to 75,000 points by the end of this year and break above 80,000 points before the end of next year. Daiwa CEO Akihiko Ogino expected the market to reach 80,000 points this year and peak at 88,000 points by the end of next year, with the yen exchange rate remaining at JPY160 against USD1 by then.

Senior US and Russian officials, including US envoy Jared Kushner, and Kirill Dmitriev, an adviser to Russian President Vladimir Putin, held talks on bringing US investors into the Nord Stream gas pipeline, Reuters, citing sources, reported. Before the Russia-Ukraine war, Russia used the pipeline to transport natural gas to Germany.

Kushner, who has been trying to mediate the Russia-Ukraine war, reportedly believes commercial cooperation is central to restoring peace. Such a deal would allow US investors to profit from energy supplies shipped to Europe after the end of the conflict.

Responding to the report, the White House said there have been no recent discussions regarding the Nord Stream pipeline. Any agreement would need to be negotiated between Russia, the US International Development Finance Corporation (DFC) and the Treasury Department, and must benefit US taxpayers and companies.

TENCENT (00700.HK) is contemplating an issuance of offshore bonds of up to USD5 billion, joining the ranks of technology companies seeking debt financing for AI project investments, Bloomberg, citing sources, reported.

TENCENT's slump deepened slightly in the afternoon session, once sagging 2.2% to a trough of HKD411.2. It last traded at HKD413, down 1.81%, with turnover of 19.1994 million shares involving HKD8.015 billion.

The bonds are reportedly likely to be denominated in USD and CNH, and could be launched as early as this month. In June this year, TENCENT had issued USD and RMB notes, raising nearly USD4.7 billion in what was its largest bond issuance since 2020.

Former ByteDance intern Tian Keyu, who was dismissed for serious disciplinary violations, founded an AI startup focused on World Models, Bloomberg reported. The startup already secured backing from prominent investment institutions including 5Y Capital and IDG Capital, and is preparing to enter the World Models field being explored by AI researchers such as Fei-Fei Li and Yann LeCun.

Although the company remains at an early stage, has yet to determine a name and has not launched any products, it has already completed financing of nearly USD30 million, with a post-money valuation reaching USD200 million.

Investors include 5Y Capital and IDG Capital, both of which previously invested in Moonshot AI. Both institutions confirmed the investment to Bloomberg.

World Models have become a new hot investment theme. Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (AMD.US) announced last month that it would acquire World Labs, the World Models company founded by Fei-Fei Li, for billions of USD.

In addition, a new AI model named Jev, with costs lower than traditional LLMs, also attracted investor interest, with the potential financing valuation of its developer exceeding USD10 billion.

Since September, multiple Chinese brokerages operating in Hong Kong have gradually notified their mainland clients that trading services will be adjusted in accordance with regulatory requirements, Chinese media reported.

Existing mainland investors logging into Hong Kong securities accounts via mainland IP addresses will no longer be able to conduct buy transactions or open positions, nor transfer funds into their accounts. Currently, sell transactions, position closing, account inquiries and fund withdrawals remain unaffected.

According to statistics, GUOTAI JUNAN I (01788.HK), Guosen Securities Hong Kong, Shenwan Hongyuan Securities Hong Kong, China Securities International, and other brokerages announced related arrangements.

Last month, there had been also reports that Futu Holdings Limited (FUTU.US), UP Fintech Holding Limited (TIGR.US), Longbridge and Valuable Capital were adjusting services for existing mainland investors in response to regulatory requirements.

US President Donald Trump said on Wednesday (7th) that he no longer hopes to reach a deal with Iran. Earlier reports had indicated that the US military is preparing for possible strikes against Iran, potentially before the midterm elections.

Speaking at a campaign rally in San Antonio, Texas on Wednesday evening US time with Republican candidates, Trump said that he does not think this agreement is really what he wants to do, but they are willing to offer then anything to stop it. He added that US Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff has been involved in the negotiations and has "done a very good job."

Kpler said crude oil prices remain elevated even though Middle East exports have recovered to near pre-war levels. Excluding Iran, crude exports from the Gulf region, together with exports from Saudi Arabia and the UAE, have returned to the pre-conflict level of 18.5 million bpd.

Kpler Chief Shipping Analyst Matt Wright said that normalization no longer needs to wait for an agreement, and forecast that amid ongoing conflict, the normalization process will be slower and uneven. Shipping recovery will proceed through operational adjustments rather than waiting for a diplomatic breakthrough.
