The possibility of renewed U.S. strikes on Iran has left the Gulf region tense and weary. According to Sina Finance, Gulf officials are stepping up mediation efforts, concerned that their countries would be among the first affected if the conflict escalates. Several host U.S. military bases and have faced Iranian retaliation. Qatari mediators arrived in Tehran on Friday to seek ceasefire talks, described by one source as a last-ditch effort to reach an interim U.S.-Iran agreement. The talks continued in Doha on Saturday, with communication with Tehran coordinated with the United States, the source said. An official familiar with the negotiations said U.S. President Donald Trump was open to an agreement but had not ruled out renewed strikes. Vice President JD Vance, envoy Steve Witkoff and Trump’s son-in-law and envoy Jared Kushner were pushing for a deal, while Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and others opposed it, the official said. An Iranian official said the next two days would determine the course of events and added that Washington wanted a positive breakthrough before the U.S. midterm elections. A White House official said the United States was in a strong position, citing U.S. military progress in the Strait of Hormuz and Iran’s difficult economic conditions. The official said Trump would make the decision he considered best for U.S. interests and that Washington remained in regular contact with regional allies. In Bahrain, home to the U.S. Fifth Fleet for more than 30 years, residents remain anxious after attacks involving hundreds of Iranian drones and missiles. Analysts estimated damage to the fleet’s Manama headquarters and infrastructure at hundreds of millions of dollars. The Strait of Hormuz shipping slowdown and supply-chain disruptions have pushed up supermarket prices. Gulf governments have called for de-escalation. The UAE Foreign Ministry urged greater diplomatic efforts and a political solution, while Oman’s foreign minister, Badr Albusaidi, called for a Gulf security alliance that includes Iran and Iraq. Gulf states have also expanded defense cooperation with partners such as Turkey and South Korea. Analysts and officials cited shortages of ballistic-missile interceptors and gaps in regional air defenses. They also voiced concern that a renewed U.S. attack after the midterm elections could put civilian infrastructure at risk. Senator Chris Murphy said a plan to target civilian infrastructure was “crazy” and would inevitably trigger a devastating escalation.

According to Jin10, a U.S. analysis report released on October 31 said that, by the end of August, attacks claimed by Iran or Iran-backed militia groups had damaged or destroyed 26 U.S. military bases and facilities housing U.S. military equipment in the Middle East. From April 1 to June 30 alone, Iranian attacks damaged or destroyed hundreds of buildings and other facilities at U.S. bases. The report said Iran initially focused on aircraft hangars and early-warning systems used to detect incoming missiles and drones, then expanded its targets, causing billions of dollars in equipment losses. The ongoing attacks have changed U.S. deployments in the Middle East; two officials said the U.S. military had withdrawn many assets from the Persian Gulf, while the losses have raised questions about its regional defense capabilities.

OnKey founder Yishi said older iPhones may pose security risks when used as cold wallets for crypto assets. According to Odaily, vulnerabilities affecting iPhone 4S through iPhone X, as well as iPhone XS, XR, 11 series and the second-generation iPhone SE, involve device boot code and cannot be fixed through iOS updates. Attackers with physical access to a device could use its USB port to execute code before iOS starts, and enabling airplane mode would not prevent such an attack. Yishi advised against storing recovery phrases on iPhone 11 and earlier models. Users who have saved phrases on these devices should generate new ones in a trusted environment and move their assets, rather than simply creating a new wallet address under the existing phrase. Yishi also recommended updating device software, using stronger device and wallet passwords, avoiding public USB charging ports, and guarding against physical access while devices are out of their owners’ control. In an earlier post on X, Yishi recommended using an iPhone as a cold wallet only if it was an iPhone 17 or newer.

Brokerages describe South Korea’s KOSPI as deeply undervalued and recommend gradually adding positions below 6,000. According to Sina Finance, Korean stocks are expected to be influenced over November 2–6 by the U.S. midterm elections and several key economic data releases. The U.S. midterm elections for the House and Senate will take place on November 3 (local time). Polls suggest Democrats could regain control of the House, while the Senate race is tight. A Democratic sweep could constrain further fiscal expansion and tax cuts under the Trump administration. Brokerages expect market uncertainty to ease after the election, regardless of the outcome. Data releases beginning November 3 include the U.S. October ISM manufacturing index. On November 4, ADP will publish its October private-sector employment figures, and the Labor Department will release September JOLTS data. The October ISM services index is due November 5, followed by the October nonfarm payrolls report on November 6. Markets expect modest job growth and an unemployment rate near 4.2%. Experts expect the U.S. labor market to continue expanding steadily and moderately, with employment data influencing the Fed’s year-end rate decision. NH Investment & Securities researcher Na Jeong-hwan said investors should focus on stocks rising on strong volume during the KOSPI’s rebound from the low 5,000s, adding that stocks with sustained inflows could lead the rally. Brokerages put the KOSPI’s forward P/E at just 4, an extremely low level, but say a sustained advance depends on confidence in earnings growth for 2027 and 2028 and continued net buying by foreign investors. Yuanta Securities Korea researcher Lee Jae-won said investors could gradually add positions below 6,000 based on shareholder return yield and P/B valuations, while maintaining semiconductor holdings and targeting materials, parts and equipment, and energy storage systems for excess returns. Daol Investment & Securities researcher Jo Byeong-hyeon said the P/E of 4 reflects a fully priced-in earnings discount, and advised keeping the first target below 6,600 even if positive developments materialize.
