Ô tô Giải Phóng posted a net loss of VND 14.6 billion in the first nine months of this year, extending its streak of losses to 15 consecutive years. Revenue for the period fell 98% year on year to VND 1.4 billion, leaving gross profit at minus VND 3.7 billion as the company sold below cost. The same period last year saw a loss of VND 10.8 billion. Revenue for 2025 was about VND 115 billion, yet the company still lost nearly VND 15 billion, which management attributes to selling inventory from 2022 below cost and high financing costs. The company issued 20 million private shares to raise VND 200 billion this year, but redirected the funds from electric vehicle assembly into a real estate investment partnership.

The shares trade at 0.264 times trailing sales versus 3.1 times for the S&P 500, and from July 20 to October 16, 2026, Ford fell 10.2% including dividends while the S&P 500 returned 3.2%.

- Buy, Hold or Sell TSLA Stock? Key Tips Ahead of Q3 Earnings
Tesla (TSLA) is scheduled to report third-quarter 2026 results after the close on Wednesday. The Zacks consensus expects earnings of 44 cents per share, down 12% year over year, and revenue of $27.8 billion, down 1.1%. Tesla delivered 486,532 vehicles in the quarter, up 1.3% sequentially but down 2.1% year over year and below the model estimate of 494,446 units. Zacks' Earnings ESP of -10.98% and Rank #4 (Sell) mean its model does not predict an earnings beat. The article notes that 2026 capex is expected to exceed $25 billion and shares are down 21% year to date, and it argues investors are better off staying away from the stock now.
- VinFast Sells Over 770 Electric Cars Per Day Worldwide: What Does Chairman Pham Nhat Quan Anh Say?
VinFast released unaudited Q2 2026 results, delivering 70,085 electric cars worldwide, up 20% from Q1 2026 and 96% from Q2 2025, or over 770 per day on average. Deliveries of electric motorbikes and e-bicycles reached 286,039, up 100% quarter on quarter and 311% year on year.

- Tesla Costs More Than $350 a Share. Here's Why I'd Still Buy One.
Tesla shares start the week at $354.72. The article notes that buying at least one whole share provides full voting power and can be transferred to brokerages that may not allow fractional purchases. Higher gas prices are boosting the case for electric vehicles after federal tax credits of up to $7,500 for new purchases expired last year, and analysts expect Tesla's annual revenue to nearly double over the next three years. Profitability was cut in half in the previous quarter, and the shares are down 21% this year. Analysts expect flat third-quarter sales, to be reported Wednesday, after last year's third-quarter spike ahead of the tax credit expiry, while the bottom-line decline is expected to be much smaller.
- Did Tesla's Fall Catch You Out? What Investors Missed
Tesla shares fell 20.7% over the past year, including dividends, despite the company's focus on robotaxis, humanoid robots and AI chip plans. Revenue rose to US$28.24b in Q2 2026 from US$22.50b a year earlier, but net income slipped to US$1.12b and net margin fell from 5.2% to 4.0%, challenging the assumption that heavy AI and robotics spending would quickly lift profitability. The article compares two narratives: one with a Fair Value of US$500, and a more cautious one at US$332 that treats slower product ramps and tariff-driven cost pressure as risks. Tesla now trades at US$355, after starting the period at US$429. The piece asks whether Tesla can turn Optimus and robotaxi economics into recurring revenue.

- Why Meta's Q3 earnings could be a little hard to interpret
Meta is reporting its third-quarter earnings after the market closes Wednesday, and Yahoo Finance's Brian Sozzi says the report will be hard to interpret. Recent good news on Meta's AI products, including new models and an AI agent, may not appear directly in the results but will likely be discussed on the earnings call. The key uncertainty is how investors will react if Meta raises its capex outlook again: it could be seen as fueling those products, or as overspending on offerings not yet reflected in financials. Sozzi expects the market to give Meta the benefit of the doubt on higher capex, as long as the increase does not shock investors.
- Zerohash rolls out a new tool to move crypto without copying wallet addresses
Zerohash launched AUTH, a service that lets users move crypto, stablecoins and blockchain-based stock tokens between linked exchange accounts or self-custody wallets without copying wallet addresses or choosing a blockchain network. To transfer, users pick an account in an app that offers AUTH, sign in and approve the move, while the service handles routing and settlement and each app sets which assets and transfer types it allows. AUTH supports more than 600 connections, including Coinbase, Robinhood, Gemini, MetaMask and Phantom, with Coinbase, Robinhood and Gemini live and Kraken in beta. The launch comes as Zerohash's application for a national trust bank charter, returned by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency in July, remains pending after a narrower refiling on Aug. 18.
- 2 charts show why Wall Street is right to worry about tech stocks
Rising cost of capital could affect the financial statements of hyperscalers such as Oracle (ORCL) and Google (GOOG, GOOGL) in 2027, as they need fresh debt to fund AI infrastructure and free cash flow may turn negative. JPMorgan strategist Mislav Matejka forecasts hyperscaler free cash flow will turn negative in 2027, implying credit markets will drive more of the AI build-out. Consensus estimates for 2027 capital expenditures are already rising from levels experts believe are too low. Morgan Stanley sees total 2027 capex among hyperscalers reaching $1.6 trillion, up from $978 billion estimated for this year. Dan Ives of Yorkville expects capex to reach the trillions and over 1,000 datacenters to be built in the next few years.

- Nvidia wins CPU business from Modal, previously exclusive to AMD and Intel
Modal, a San Francisco-based AI cloud startup that previously ran its AI agent workloads only on Intel and AMD processors, will begin using Nvidia's new Vera CPU. Early tests showed the Nvidia chip doubled work capacity for AI agents, and Modal plans to run it alongside Intel and AMD chips, assigning each task to the most efficient hardware, though integration requires substantial software changes. Modal recently raised $750 million in a round led by Accel at a $15.75 billion valuation and expects $1 billion in sales over the next year, with usage tripled and revenue up more than 15 times year-over-year. Nvidia projects at least $20 billion in Vera chip revenue this fiscal year in a market it estimates at about $200 billion, and says OpenAI, Anthropic, Oracle and Perplexity also plan to use the chips.
- America's EV Plans Have Died
Billions of dollars went into EV factories, dealerships and marketing after President Biden set a goal for 50% of new US car sales to be zero-emission by 2030, but EV sales have since fallen sharply. US EV sales dropped 30.7% in the first nine months of 2026, after the $7,500 tax credit expired on September 30 last year, and gas prices near $4.50 per gallon have done little to lift them. According to Kelley Blue Book, the average transaction price of a new EV was $54,754 in August, above the $50,089 average for all new cars. Ford's EV sales fell 80.2% to 6,047 in the third quarter, and it has no new EV planned until its Fathom launches next year, while Tesla holds over 50% of the market and no other major automaker has even 10%. The article says EVs could recover if gas prices reach $5 and stay there for months, but that is uncertain.
