Tesla Motors Vietnam Co., Ltd. was registered in Ho Chi Minh City on September 11, 2026, with charter capital of about 77.7 billion VND (roughly US$3 million), according to business registration records, while Tesla has not announced models, prices, showrooms or launch timing. Analysts see the entity as serving imported vehicle sales and after-sales service, with no sign of local assembly. VinFast holds about 92% of Vietnam's EV market share, according to HSC Securities cited by CNBC, backed by its showroom, service and charging network. Model 3 and Model Y are expected to be the first models, initially targeting high-income buyers. Starlink, SpaceX's satellite internet service, was licensed in February 2026 and began selling in mid-August 2026, with family plans from about 1.13 million VND per month.

- VinFast Brings in Over USD 2 Billion in First Half of Year
VinFast posted revenue of nearly 53,200 billion VND (about USD 2.1 billion) in the first six months, up 61% year on year, according to its Q2 financial report released on October 19. Around 95% of revenue came from vehicle sales, and the company delivered about 128,685 electric cars globally, up 77%, along with nearly 430,000 motorbikes and e-bicycles. Even so, VinFast still posted a post-tax loss of nearly 28,400 billion VND, narrower than the loss of over 38,300 billion VND a year earlier, and accumulated losses fell from nearly 174,000 billion VND to 116,807 billion VND. The company divested from VFTP, which holds its manufacturing arm, including two plants in Vietnam, and bears about 182,000 billion VND in financial debt; VFTP will keep producing vehicles on VinFast's orders. Experts say separating manufacturing could help VinFast turn a profit sooner, as lower production costs and improved cash flow are expected.
- Tesla And 2 Other Top Founder Led Stocks
Simply Wall St highlights Tesla, Sprinklr and Spotify Technology as founder-led stocks from its screen. Tesla generates US$91.3 billion in revenue, mainly from automotive, plus US$12.3 billion from energy generation and storage, with a market value of about US$1.47 trillion. Elon Musk still directs bets on products, factories, AI and autonomy, but how these ambitions feed into margins and cash generation remains an open question. Sprinklr, led by Ragy Thomas, reports about US$872.9 million in software and programming revenue and a market value near US$1.6 billion, while integrating AI deeply into its products. Spotify reports €18.8 billion in revenue, most of it from Premium at about €16.9 billion, and a market value near $120.1 billion; Daniel Ek is pushing to improve economics through engagement, and how value is split among labels, creators and the platform is a key test.

- Tesla: 3 Key Takeaways for Long-Term Investors
On its Q3 2026 earnings call on October 21, 2026, Tesla said vehicle demand exceeds production capacity and automotive order backlogs reached their highest level in four years. Revenue from recurring Full Self-Driving (FSD) subscriptions is also growing. Vice President of AI Ashok Elluswamy said the Cybercab will expand beyond Austin, Texas, with a launch in Dallas next month alongside Model Y robotaxis, and that the first customer vehicles could join the robotaxi fleet around Q2 next year. Elon Musk said a merger with SpaceX is off the table for now, while CFO Vaibhav Taneja said capital expenditures will continue to rise over the next few years.
- SpaceX Revenue Projections Look Wildly Optimistic Based on Elon Musk's Forecasting Track Record
Elon Musk targets $1 trillion in SpaceX revenue by 2030 (possibly 2029) and $3.5 trillion around 2033, versus roughly $18.7 billion recorded in 2025. The article argues these estimates should be viewed skeptically, as Musk has a history of overly optimistic forecasts: he predicted 1 million Tesla robotaxis by 2020, but there are currently 300 to 400 active. Tesla's electric semi-truck, originally slated for 2019, only began high-scale production last month, while the Cybertruck was estimated to sell 250,000 units annually but sold about 20,000 last year. Although SpaceX may grow strongly through its AI business, rocket launches and Starlink, the article says reaching Musk's sales targets would be an almost unbelievable achievement.
- Tesla Promises Its Flying Roadster For 2028, but MKBHD Has One Question: ‘This Is A Prank, Right?’
Tesla unveiled its Roadster on Thursday, with cold-gas thrusters sourced from Space Exploration Technologies Corp. enabling barrel rolls and hovering, and promised shipments in 2028. YouTuber Marques Brownlee (MKBHD) questioned the claims, pointing to the car's weight of over 4,000 pounds and asking if it was a prank; he had reserved a Roadster for $50,000 before cancelling, saying Tesla had held his money for eight years. Sam Altman also cancelled a reservation but says he has not received the $50,000 he paid, a claim Musk denied. Analyst Dan Ives said the debut could make the Tesla–SpaceX relationship more tangible, Ross Gerber called a merger between the companies 'obvious,' and Gene Munster described the car as an 'engineering flex' with no economic value for the company.

- Ukraine aid could cost EU at least 35 billion euros in interest; four countries object
The European Commission estimates the EU budget will need at least 35 billion euros (about $40.6 billion) over the next seven-year cycle to cover interest on loans tied to the 90 billion euro support package for Ukraine. Total interest could reach 41.9 billion euros (about $48.6 billion) if rates rise by one percentage point. An EC official said the joint budget has enough fiscal room, but the specific source of funding for these costs has not been clearly identified. The package, agreed in late 2025, covers Ukraine's needs for 2026-2027, and since 2014 the EU has provided about 171 billion euros (about $198.4 billion) in loans, mostly disbursed since 2022. The issue will be discussed at a special EU summit in Brussels on November 26-27, where Hungary, Czechia, Slovakia and Bulgaria reportedly oppose bearing interest costs on any new loans to Kyiv.
- Considering electricity price cuts and a special consumption tax cut on gasoline from 01/11/2026
On 27/10/2026, Deputy Prime Minister Nguyễn Văn Thắng chaired a meeting on gasoline and electricity price management scenarios, attended by the Ministries of Finance and Industry and Trade, the Government Office, and the CEO of EVN.

The Ministry of Finance was tasked with reviewing a proposal to cut the special consumption tax on all gasoline types to 0% over the same period, with a report to the competent authority due before 01/11/2026.
- Nvidia's web of AI bets: smart strategy or bubble risk?
Nvidia's $3 billion investment in Meta's share sale adds to a growing portfolio of stakes, loans and guarantees that some analysts say has made it the central bank of the AI boom. Its stakes include OpenAI, Anthropic, xAI, neocloud providers CoreWeave and Nebius, and partners in Europe and Asia. Nvidia committed to buy up to $6.3 billion of unused CoreWeave computing capacity and, according to US media, holds about $36 billion in cloud backstops and a guarantee of up to $105 billion linked to an OpenAI data center. MIT's Michael Cusumano says its huge profits leave few better options, while Gil Luria of D.A. Davidson calls the approach unprecedented but says it "appears to be working." Some doubters still ask whether the deals are inflating an AI bubble.
- ServiceNow Stock Just Plunged More Than 20% in a Single Day. Here's What It Did After Its Other Biggest Drops.
ServiceNow shares fell about 25% to near $112 on Thursday after its third-quarter report, on track for their worst day since the company went public in 2012. Subscription revenue rose 21% to $3.99 billion and beat guidance, but the outlook disappointed, with fourth-quarter cRPO growth guided at just 18.5%. Management says much of the slowdown reflects early renewals in the third quarter that pulled deals out of the fourth, and expects fourth-quarter subscription revenue to grow 21.5% in constant currency. The stock has often recovered from past sharp drops, though it kept sliding after the January 2025 and December 2025 declines. At around 23 times expected 2027 earnings, the stock is now much cheaper than the roughly 30 times of the previous day.
- Intel plunges on a major guidance miss. What went wrong — and how to proceed
Intel's third-quarter revenue rose 21% year over year to 16.513 billion USD, slightly above the LSEG consensus of 16.496 billion USD, while non-GAAP EPS more than doubled to 52 cents against an estimate of 40 cents. However, its guidance showed heavy dependence on the struggling PC market, and the shares fell sharply after hours. PC sales fell 5% year over year but still account for more than half of the CCPG + DCAI products group's revenue and about 43% of Intel Products' operating income. Surging memory prices and limited manufacturing capacity are pressuring the PC market; CEO Lip-Bu Tan said demand for 2027 is significant, while CFO David Zinsner estimated a 300 million USD impact in the fourth quarter, likely similar in the first quarter. The article says analysts will need to revise estimates downward for several quarters, the rating is under review, and the price target is cut to 100 USD.
