Softening oil prices support a modest rise in gold prices.
Gold prices edged higher, supported by softer oil prices. Tim Waterer, chief market analyst at KCM Trade, said: "Gold prices saw a modest rise at the start of this week. From an inflation perspective, softer oil prices have had a positive impact on gold. In the short term, if oil prices continue to fall, or if yields show a more pronounced downward move, these would be the most favorable catalysts for gold prices, as both can ease market concerns about inflation and interest rate hikes." On Monday, oil prices declined after U.S. President Trump exempted sanctions and tariffs targeting Russia. Meanwhile, U.S. import prices rose more than expected in September, driven by higher costs for energy products and various other goods. Against the backdrop of ongoing conflict in the Middle East, this further confirms that inflationary pressures are intensifying. Currently, market participants are closely watching the Federal Reserve's upcoming interest rate meeting and the PCE data due to be released next week.

OpenCode discloses cloud breach, team says it faced sustained attacks for 48 hours, defensive AI refused to answer midway
BlockBeats news, OpenCode disclosed on October 18 that its cloud console had been breached, affecting approximately 1.4% of users, with hosted third-party model API keys potentially leaked. Co-founder Dax Raad stated that over the past 48 hours, attackers had continuously attempted intrusions, and the team needed to operate around the clock to defend against proxy attacks, investigate vulnerabilities, and harden systems. However, when using AI to investigate the attack, frontier models initially helped complete the work but subsequently refused some requests, as analyzing real attack code easily triggers safety guardrails. A similar situation had previously occurred at Hugging Face, where the security team was frequently refused when using Claude to analyze attack records and ultimately switched to Zhipu GLM-5.2. OpenCode mitigated the issue through OpenAI's Daybreak Blue, and the situation improved after obtaining permissions. The incident prompted criticism from US AI policy figure David Sacks, who argued that uniform safety restrictions set by model companies may constrain defenders, while attackers can obtain AI capabilities through other channels.
