South Korea's Presidential Office Chief of Staff Kang Hoon-sik said Sunday that the government plans to use additional tax revenue from the semiconductor industry boom to establish a future fund, earmarked for investing in economic growth engines, supporting the younger generation, and addressing widening social inequality. The government will leverage the "Future Response Fund" to finance major national investment projects and boost the country’s long-term competitiveness. Kang emphasized, "At this critical juncture that will shape South Korea’s future, we must not squander the additional tax revenue generated by factors like the semiconductor boom." He added that the fund will support the government’s three "super projects," foster new growth drivers, tackle what he termed "K-shaped" economic polarization, and provide housing, entrepreneurship, and employment assistance for people aged 20 to 39. The proposed fund serves as a cornerstone of President Lee Jae-myung’s goal of "making South Korea irreplaceable globally," and he urged the government to collaborate closely with the ruling party to advance the initiative promptly.

Data from prediction market platform Predict.fun shows that for the 2026 FIFA World Cup Round of 16 match between Brazil and Norway, as of press time, the market gives Brazil a roughly 68% chance of advancing, while Norway’s probability is around 31%. Traders overall are favoring "Five-Star Brazil" to reach the quarterfinals. Notably, this will be the two sides’ first World Cup clash in 28 years. At the 1998 World Cup group stage, Norway once secured a 2-1 come-from-behind win over Brazil, and current head coach St?le Solbakken was a member of that Norway squad. This match will also be a showdown between the two teams’ top strikers: Brazil forward Vinícius has scored 4 goals in the tournament so far, while Norway forward Erling Haaland has netted 5 goals, with their performances likely to be key to the match’s outcome.

Serenity published an article noting that Liu Qiangdong, founder of e-commerce giant JD.com, has revealed robots will gradually replace around 700,000 delivery workers in the future. JD has signed cooperation agreements with roughly 120 schools to train delivery staff to transition to roles including robot repair and maintenance. Serenity views this as aligning with Amazon’s earlier plan to cut around 600,000 future hiring needs through robots, signaling accelerating commercialization of robotics and a shift in the logistics industry’s workforce structure from "manual delivery" to "robot operation and maintenance". It forecasts this model may gradually expand to global logistics and delivery platforms like DoorDash, Uber, and Mercado Libre, with robotics commercialization potentially proceeding faster than market consensus.

Serenity cited a report from UDN Money that research firm SemiAnalysis has sparked market controversy over a series of moves. In June this year, SemiAnalysis released a research note taking a bearish stance on the optical communications sector, citing factors including low yield of CPO (co-packaged optics) technology and potential delays in product launches, which led to sharp declines in stocks of related companies. Subsequently, the firm partnered with Tema ETFs to launch an optical communications-themed ETF. Notably, firms including Himax Technologies and Lumentum Holdings—companies that SemiAnalysis had heavily bearish on in its "Powered Down, Lights Off" report—were added to the ETF’s holdings after the optical communications sector’s pullback, sparking market discussions over its "bearish first, then allocate" practice.
