All three major U.S. indexes closed lower on Thursday, with the Nasdaq Composite down 1.38%. Brent crude rose to $116.09 a barrel amid renewed conflict in the Strait of Hormuz.

- Electricity Prices Could Fall from November 1
Households and businesses may receive electricity price cuts for 5 months starting November 1. On October 27, Deputy Prime Minister Nguyễn Văn Thắng asked Tập đoàn Điện lực Việt Nam (EVN) to urgently review and cut costs, prepare a plan to lower average retail electricity prices, and review a proposal to set the special consumption tax on gasoline to 0%. According to the Statistics Office (Cục Thống kê), residential electricity accounts for about 4.8% of the CPI basket, so a price cut could help ease inflation pressure and support growth. In the first 8 months of 2026, EVN reported profit of over 12,000 billion VND and had cleared its accumulated losses under consolidated financial statements by the end of June, which provides room to cut prices. The Ministry of Industry and Trade has asked EVN to finalize the plan and will give its opinion, and if the matter exceeds its authority, it will report to the Government.
