- US stocks under heavy selling pressure as Nasdaq falls sharply
US stocks fell sharply on October 16 as technology and chip stocks faced heavy selling, amid concerns about the sustainability of AI investment, rising oil prices and interest rate pressure.

- Vietnam's public debt is around 34% of GDP
Prime Minister Lê Minh Hưng said at a dialogue with WEF CEO Stephan Mergenthaler at the Autumn Economic Forum 2026 in Ho Chi Minh City on 28 October that Vietnam's public debt is about 34% of GDP, leaving fiscal room to support people and businesses during economic shocks and to fund strategic infrastructure. He outlined five measures to strengthen resilience: keeping political and social stability and macroeconomic fundamentals sound; improving institutions and legal frameworks; building modern infrastructure and promoting science, technology and digital transformation; reforming education and vocational training; and broadening foreign relations. Vietnam aims to become an emerging hub for digital technology, new energy, green energy and green agriculture by 2035, and a reliable link in regional and global supply chains.

- Trump methane policy rollback may have minimal impact on crude prices, EPA says
The EPA's own economic modeling projects that President Trump's proposed rollback of methane emissions rules would lower U.S. crude prices by only 11 cents a barrel in 2027, or 0.14%. CLSA analyst Baden Moore said uncertainty over implementation and the policy's durability could limit producers' investment, and that it would affect only a small share of the U.S. shale market. The proposal would allow lighter requirements based on production levels or extraction methods, scrap the Super Emitter Program, and project about $45 billion in savings from 2027 through 2050, mostly from lower compliance costs. The EPA also projects 60 million short tons of additional methane emissions over that period, and the proposal remains subject to public comment and further review.
- Further Fed rate hikes may not necessarily be a mistake
In a CNBC interview on October 28, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said further Fed rate hikes are “not necessarily” a policy mistake, just hours after the Fed held rates steady at its October meeting. He said he and President Trump trust Fed Chair Kevin Warsh to balance maximum employment and price stability, and that the energy-driven supply shock should be viewed as temporary. The U.S.-Iran conflict has sharply cut global crude output and pushed U.S. annual inflation further from the Fed's 2% target. Bessent also said the “Operation Economic Outcast” campaign to isolate Iran's economy has yielded very positive results, with internal estimates that Iran's economy could shrink by up to 25% within a year. On AI-related bond yields, officials are monitoring but see no alarming signs, and Bessent said neocloud firms, which Elon Musk warned on October 25 could face a wave of bankruptcies and large-scale mergers at more than 200 companies, make up only a small part of the ecosystem.
- Ukrainian media examines the race to destroy infrastructure
According to the Telegram channel “Resident,” citing sources at Bankova Street, Russian strikes on bridges mirror Ukrainian attacks on Russian airports, and Ukraine was the first to break an unwritten pact to spare strategic facilities. The article says this shifted in spring, after commander Robert Brovdi (Madyar) of Ukraine's unmanned systems forces proposed attacks on merchant ships in the Azov and Black Seas, followed by a systematic campaign against Russian refineries and oil depots. Russia responded by striking seaports and bridges over the Dnieper, leaving Ukraine at risk of losing crossings over the river and complicating military logistics. Russian military statements say their attacks inflict far greater damage on Ukraine than Ukraine's strikes do on Russia, and the channel sees Moscow's claim that its strikes on Kyiv and port infrastructure retaliate for Ukrainian attacks on civilian targets as indirect confirmation of this picture.
- National Assembly deputy: Land price adjustment coefficients should be reviewed annually
Deputy Lê Văn Thế (Ninh Bình) proposed reviewing the land price adjustment coefficient (K) at least once a year, instead of once every 3 years as in the government's draft amended Land Law. He argued that an annual review does not mean an adjustment, and that prices for newly formed roads and areas missing from land price tables need timely supplementation. Deputy Hoàng Quốc Khánh (Lai Châu) suggested letting the provincial People's Committee set and adjust the K coefficient within limits approved by the provincial People's Council, while Deputy Lê Hữu Trí (Khánh Hòa) called for uniform national principles for determining it. The draft has 3 chapters and 112 articles, 148 fewer than the current law, and the National Assembly plans to vote on November 21.
