- Kpler reported that Russia exported 271,000 barrels of diesel per day in October, compared with 135,000 barrels daily in September.
- The increase followed eased US sanctions and a pause in attacks; Richard Bronze said US pressure and Trump's announced energy ceasefire helped the production recovery.
- At least two tankers initially bound for the US changed course, while the Agioi Fanendes waited near the US East Coast for a buyer.
- In early November, New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill warned port and terminal operators that accepting Russian diesel could expose them to serious legal consequences.

- The documents show Nvidia technology is used beyond major tech firms, including in local government-backed ventures, universities and regional computing centres.
- Although Nvidia says it is effectively excluded from China's data-centre market, documents show Chinese customers still plan purchases and, in some cases, operate processors restricted by US export controls.
- Operational or construction-stage facilities could face delays, supply disruptions or costly redesigns around domestic chips as export controls tighten.
- Jensen Huang resigned as CEO on November 12; his departure could weaken Nvidia's lobbying leverage as US lawmakers press for tighter controls.
Washington must stop focusing solely on who buys the chips on the surface and start examining who ultimately uses the computing power—and for what purpose.— Sunny Cheung, an analyst at the Washington-based Jamestown Foundation, commented on Reuters' findings and enforcement of export controls.

- In October, exports grew 35.2% and imports 41.6% year on year; the surplus fell to $105.3 billion from September’s $133.5 billion.
- High-tech goods such as semiconductors and cars supported export growth this year.
- Strong exports helped offset sluggish domestic demand; China is forecast to meet its official growth target of 4.5% to 5% this year.
- Trade is expected to rank among the top issues at planned Trump-Xi talks on the sidelines of the APEC summit later this month in Shenzhen.
“If the AI boom slows or turns into a correction, lower chip and electronics prices and smaller shipping volumes would hit China’s exports hard,”— Dave Chia, an economist at Moody’s Analytics, warned of the potential impact of a slowdown in the AI boom on China’s exports.
