Activist Commentary: Engaged Capital was founded by Glenn W. Welling, a former principal and managing director at Relational Investors. Engaged has had great success as an activist, but almost all that success has come at small-cap companies. VF Corp. was in desperate need of a new CEO, and they got one. Engaged also urges VF Corp. to evaluate non-core divestitures to fix the balance sheet. After adding up all the pieces, Engaged sees a path to a $46 share price within three years.

BANGKOK (AP) — Asian shares were mostly higher Wednesday after Wall Street advanced to claim back some of the ground it gave up in another losing month. The overwhelming expectation is that the Fed will keep its overnight interest rate steady. Pinterest jumped 19% after reporting stronger profit for the latest quarter than analysts expected. Most big U.S. companies have reported stronger profit for the summer than expected, and Caterpillar also joined them. The Fed has already pulled its main overnight interest rate above 5.25% to its highest level since 2001.

A trader works on the floor at the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in New York City, U.S., October 27, 2023. A worrying late-year stock market unwind is starkest in small-cap indexes (.RUT) now tracking year-to-date losses of some 7% - even as the benchmark S&P500 (.SPX) remains up 7% and Big Tech leaders of the Nasdaq 100 are still 30% (.NDX) higher. Annual earnings growth for S&P500 companies is now expected to have picked up to a 4.3% annual growth rate, according to LSEG estimates, from as low as 1.6% before the reporting season began. But beyond Fed policy rates, it's the restive bond market and near 16-year-high long-term borrowing costs that are starting to hurt most. U.S. 10-year Treasury yields held steady at 4.85% - well below the 5% threshold they breached last week.

Dealogic data showed that globally, investment banking revenue tumbled 16% in the third quarter from a year earlier.

REUTERS/Thinh Nguyen Acquire Licensing RightsSINGAPORE, Oct 6 (Reuters Breakingviews) - Vietnam’s richest man may have to get used to spending some time in the slow lane. In August, Pham Nhat Vuong closed an unconvincing merger with a blank-cheque company that bestowed a $23 billion market value on his Tesla (TSLA.O) wannabe VinFast . There are no details of sales in the United States, a key target market where it has been burdened by poor reviews. Without some impressive progress outside of Vietnam, though, the EV company’s stock is going nowhere fast.
