The technology segment contributed 89% of revenue, over VND 35,500 billion, up nearly 15%, and FPT won 16 projects worth over $10 million each, including becoming a global partner of OpenAI.

- Strategy Shareholders Approve Daily Dividends on Preferred Stock, With 99.3% in Favor
Strategy shareholders approved an amendment letting its four preferred stocks, STRF, STRC, STRK and STRD, accrue dividends every calendar day, including weekends and holidays, with 99.3% of votes cast in favor according to preliminary results. STRC will move first, with its first daily record date on November 1 and payment on November 2, while the other three switch over with a first record date on January 1 and payment on January 4, subject to filing amended terms for each stock. Record dates falling on non-trading days will be treated as the previous business day, so dividends are effectively grouped and paid on the next business day; for STRC, record dates rise from 24 a year to 365. STRC traded at $99.86 against its $100 par value, and last week Strategy paused Bitcoin purchases for the first time since mid-September to spend $204.9 million buying back STRC. Separately, Strategy faces possible removal from MSCI's widely tracked equity indexes, after MSCI finalized a rule treating companies whose balance sheets are dominated by a single asset as ineligible and will publish affected companies on November 11.
- Surprising Profits at Bách Hóa Xanh in Q3
According to MWG's consolidated financial statements for Q3 2026, the Bách Hóa Xanh chain remained profitable in the quarter, so the tax losses carried forward it used to offset taxable income rose by about 563 billion VND to nearly 1,469 billion VND as of September 30, 2026.

- Bitcoin price bounce rejected at 50-day trend line ahead of FOMC, earnings
Bitcoin gave back early gains on Wednesday, falling about 0.3% after failing to hold above $81,687 as markets awaited the FOMC decision and key tech earnings. Its 50-day simple moving average at $81,831 acted as local resistance, and the pair was reported to have dipped as low as $80,297 on Bitstamp. Markets broadly expected the Fed to hold rates in the 3.75-4% range, with CME FedWatch showing 90.6% odds of a pause, and attention focused on Fed chair Kevin Warsh's comments. Analysts noted the Nasdaq did not follow South Korea's KOSPI, which rose 6.6%, and that a 4-hour close below $80,565 would reduce the chance of retesting the 50-day SMA. Glassnode said bid liquidity had shifted lower, with only $3.4 million in bids at $80,000 and about $42 million clustered at $78,000-79,000, up from about $24 million in mid-October.

- Tesla Gains Another 4% as ARK Restates $4,400 Robotaxi Target and Musk Teases “A Storm of Cybercabs”
Tesla shares rose 4%, adding to a Monday rally after Barclays upgraded the stock to Overweight and raised its target to $450 from $370, a view that rests on an anticipated SpaceX merger with no terms set yet. ARK Invest reaffirmed its $4,400 base-case 2031 target, tying about 80% of Tesla's 2031 enterprise value to robotaxis and assuming 8.1 million robotaxis generating $753 billion of net ride-hail revenue that year. The consensus target is $411, up from $386 a year ago, with the highest at $600, while Tesla trades at 183x forward earnings versus a five-year average of 108x. Consensus expects normalized EPS to rise from $1.66 in 2025 to $3.20 in 2028, below the $4.07 earned in 2022, and free cash flow to remain negative through 2028. Tesla said its Texas Cybercab factory can build robotaxis faster than they can be deployed, citing six robotaxi cities on its third-quarter call, with a Dallas Cybercab launch set for November and robotaxi revenue expected to become noticeable by Q2 2027.
