Techcombank has set October 30, 2026 as the final registration date for its stock dividend at a 50% ratio, under which shareholders holding 100 shares receive 50 new shares. The bank plans to issue over 3.543 billion shares, worth more than VND 35,431 billion at par value, funded by 2025 undistributed profit, raising its charter capital from VND 70,862.4 billion to about VND 106,293.6 billion. If completed, this would put Techcombank ahead of MB (VND 100,687 billion) and VPBank (VND 100,000 billion) as the largest charter capital in the system, and an ESOP issuance could bring the total close to VND 106,600 billion. Such increases help banks strengthen financial capacity and add room to meet capital-safety requirements as credit demand expands.

- Home Bancshares: 3 Key Takeaways for Long-Term Investors
On its third-quarter 2026 earnings call on October 15, 2026, Home Bancshares (HOMB) reported record net income of $129.1 million. Management said avoiding large purchases of long-term securities when rates were low helped the bank avoid the balance sheet losses hit by peers, and lifted the net interest margin to 4.53% in the quarter. The company raised its quarterly dividend 9.5% to $0.23 per share and repurchased 3.3 million shares for $94.4 million over the first three quarters of 2026.

Back-office integration for the Mountain Commerce acquisition is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2026.
- JPMorgan Slashes Q3 Share Buybacks: Is Organic Growth a Better Bet?
JPMorgan sharply cut its share buybacks in the third quarter of 2026 to a net $664 million, down nearly 89% from $6.2 billion in the previous quarter, as CEO Jamie Dimon prioritised investing in the franchise and supporting clients. The bank holds about $30 billion in excess capital and is looking to invest in technology, branch expansion, commercial banking, wealth management and international operations. It ended the quarter with $304 billion in CET1 capital, a 13.9% standardised CET1 ratio and a 20% return on tangible common equity. The article notes that fewer buybacks could limit near-term earnings growth, and that the 2026 adjusted expense outlook of $108.6 billion highlights cost pressures. Citigroup repurchased about $3 billion of shares in the quarter, bringing year-to-date buybacks to $13.3 billion with $23 billion still available as of Sept. 30, 2026, while Bank of America bought back $6 billion, leaving almost $11 billion of its $40 billion authorisation, and returned $8.3 billion in total including $2.2 billion in dividends.
- Is Citigroup Stock a Buy 13% Below Its 52-Week High?
Citigroup posted strong third-quarter 2026 results, with revenue of US$23.8b (up 8%, its highest third-quarter revenue in a decade) and net income up 37% to US$5.2b. EPS of US$2.85 beat estimates of US$2.65, and adjusted EPS excluding a goodwill impairment was US$2.24, up 20%, helped by expenses rising just 3%. Despite this, shares fell almost 5% after the October 13 release to US$126, about 13% below their US$145 52-week closing high. The article cites a CET1 ratio of 12.8%, a dividend of US$0.67 per share (2.18% yield) and a 24% payout ratio as support for the dividend, and notes the stock trades at 10 times forward earnings. The author is skeptical of the 25% upside implied by the median analyst target of US$154, but says Citigroup may be a decent option for dividend investors among large banks.

- Live updates: Bitcoin clings to $82,500 as SpaceX results lift stock futures
Bitcoin was holding just above $82,500 on Wednesday, a level XS.com called its most important support, as stock futures rose after SpaceX posted results well above forecasts. Bitcoin had fallen in step with the Nasdaq last week following a hot U.S. inflation report and a selloff in AI and chip stocks, and XS.com said that link is getting stronger. A decisive break below $82,500 could expose bitcoin to a drop toward $70,000, a further 15% decline, which is the downside case laid out by Wintermute. A move back above $84,000 would take that scenario off the table.
