The Supreme Court of South Korea ruled that Samsung Securities shall pay 1.86 billion won in compensation to the National Pension Service of Korea.
South Korea’s Supreme Court has ruled that Samsung Securities must pay 1.86 billion won to the National Pension Service (NPS) to compensate for losses stemming from a 2018 dividend payout error. In April 2018, the firm mistakenly issued 1,000 shares of stock instead of a 1,000 won cash dividend to each employee; subsequent selling by staff pushed the stock price down by as much as 11.7% during the trading day. The NPS had sought 29.9 billion won in compensation, but a lower court ordered Samsung Securities to pay 1.86 billion won. The Supreme Court upheld that ruling on Wednesday.

Trump responds to secretly switching planes to return to the U.S. to avoid assassination threats: "I have received many threats and follow the military's arrangement."
According to a report by The Washington Post, Donald Trump confirmed he secretly switched planes when departing Turkey last month. The White House had previously led the public to believe Trump returned to the U.S. from Turkey aboard Air Force One, but he was actually assigned to another aircraft.
Trump said local time Tuesday that the move was requested by the Secret Service and the military due to security threats. “They wanted me to take another flight, another plane. The safety level is the same, but they asked me to do it, so I did. I followed their arrangement,” he stated.
White House staff, traveling press corps, and other government officials returned to the U.S. from the NATO summit in Ankara aboard Air Force One, and were misled into believing the president was traveling with them. This complex arrangement stemmed from Iran’s assassination threat against Trump.
When asked why he switched planes, Trump responded: “I guess there is some kind of threat out there. I didn’t ask too many questions. I get a lot of threats.” But Trump declined to reveal the specific details of the threats, nor did he explain why the military deemed it safe for other personnel to travel on the presidential aircraft while he was not allowed to.

Tencent, ZhenFund, Sequoia China and other investors spent $2 billion to repurchase Manus shares from Meta.
According to monitoring by Beating and a Caixin report, former major shareholders of Manus including Tencent, ZhenFund and Sequoia China have repurchased Manus shares from Meta for $2 billion. The $2 billion transaction price is close to the acquisition price announced by U.S. social media tech giant Meta in December 2025. Benchmark, Manus’ largest shareholder prior to its acquisition, will not participate in this repurchase. Benchmark’s former stake will be acquired by Tencent, which will become Manus’ largest shareholder. Manus is currently operating normally. The company announced yesterday that it will resume independent operations. To complete this transition and meet regulatory requirements in some jurisdictions, affected users must complete data backup by 7:59 a.m. Singapore time on August 23, and start data recovery from 8:00 a.m. on August 25 to ensure normal subsequent use. Manus also stated that it is preparing a series of new features to further expand the capabilities of its general-purpose AI agents, and expressed full confidence in the company’s prospects after resuming independent operations.
