Hoa Phat Agriculture (HPA) will pay an interim cash dividend for 2026 at 18%, equal to 1,800 VND per share, with a last registration date of 12/11/2026 and payment expected on 27/11/2026. With 285 million shares outstanding, HPA expects to pay about 513 billion VND, funded by undistributed after-tax profit in the interim financial statements reviewed as of 30/6/2026. Parent company Hoa Phat Group (HPG), which holds over 84.5% of the capital, is expected to receive nearly 434 billion VND. In Q3, consolidated revenue fell 19% to 1,685 billion VND and after-tax profit fell 16% to 300 billion VND year on year, mainly due to lower volumes of pigs and cattle sold. For the first nine months, HPA earned 948 billion VND, completing 94% of its full-year after-tax profit plan, with pig farming as the main driver.

- Domestic Pork Costs More Than Imported Pork
A survey in Ho Chi Minh City found imported Russian pork belly at about 107,500 VND per kg, while domestic pork belly was nearly 167,000 VND per kg, roughly 55% higher. Although pork imports in the first eight months rose 19% in volume to 124,100 tonnes, their value fell about 24% to 213 million USD, while domestic pork output in nine months reached 4.28 million tonnes, up 4.4%. Live hog prices in Vietnam in mid-October reached 51,700 VND per kg, the second highest among nine markets compared, while slaughter, transport and distribution costs further push up retail prices. Feed accounts for 60-70% of livestock production costs and Vietnam imports 70-80% of its raw materials, while sows produce 18-22 pigs a year, compared with about 36 in developed markets. Industry officials say improving competitiveness requires better breeding stock, productivity, disease control and domestic feed materials.
- After 15 years in farming, Bau Duc keeps switching crops and livestock to find a path for HAGL
Over roughly 15 years of farming, Đoàn Nguyên Đức (Bầu Đức) of HAGL has repeatedly switched crops and livestock, from rubber, sugarcane and cattle to passion fruit, chili, dragon fruit, banana, pigs, durian and most recently coffee. HAGL announced in 2012 that it had planted 50,000 ha of rubber, but long waits before harvest pushed it toward faster-cycle products under the principle of 'short-term crops fund long-term ones'. Banana became a core business, with about 7,000 ha maintained in 2025 and exports to Japan during 2019-2022. Banana rejects are fed to pigs, and HAGL announced capacity of about 500,000 pigs in 2024. This evolved into a circular agriculture model, included in HAGL's 2024-2030 business strategy.
- Series of Steel Companies Report Big Profits in Third Quarter of 2026
A series of steel companies reported sharply higher profits for the third quarter of 2026. TISCO (TIS) posted net revenue of VND 3,842 billion, up nearly 39%, and swung to a net profit of over VND 4 billion from a VND 12 billion loss a year earlier; its nine-month profit reached nearly VND 28 billion versus a loss of nearly VND 7 billion in the prior year. Thép Thủ Đức – VNSTEEL (TDS) reported net profit of nearly VND 3 billion, up 75%, with gross margin rising to 3.3%. Thép Tấm lá Thống Nhất (TNS) saw quarterly revenue fall 31%, yet net profit reached nearly VND 10 billion, up over 870%, as it shifted toward higher-margin products and cost of goods fell faster than revenue.
- Foreign investors record longest net-selling streak in two years
Foreign investors net sold more than VND 770 billion today, extending a 16-session selling streak with a total outflow of about VND 22,800 billion (US$900 million), the longest such run since 2024. Year to date, they have withdrawn VND 116,000 billion (US$4.5 billion), close to the record US$5.1 billion sold across the market last year, and their ownership on the HCMC exchange has fallen to about 13% from 15% a year earlier. Experts attribute the outflows mainly to opportunity costs and global capital shifting toward markets with stronger earnings growth, along with active funds taking profits to rebalance after buying ahead of the market upgrade. The VN-Index fell for six straight sessions to close at 1,704 points, and some analysts warn it could slip toward the 1,680 zone. Observers expect roughly US$2.7 billion in passive FTSE Russell-tracking inflows to be disbursed next year, which could halt the outflow trend.

- UOB raises Vietnam growth forecast to 9.2%
UOB has raised its 2026 GDP growth forecast for Vietnam to 9.2% from 8.5%, after third-quarter GDP grew 9.95%, the fastest since Q3 2022 and above both UOB's and Bloomberg's 9% forecasts. Nine-month growth reached 9.01%, with industry and construction up 11.21% and contributing 49.62% of value-added growth, while electronics-related exports of computers, electronic products and components reached about $111 billion by mid-September. UOB expects fourth-quarter growth of about 9.7%, supported by faster public investment disbursement at year-end, and expects the State Bank of Vietnam to hold its 4.5% refinancing rate through 2027. It forecasts USD/VND at 26,300 in Q4 and 26,600 in the first quarter of 2027, while flagging risks from energy prices and possible tougher US tariffs.

- EU considers reducing reliance on US after Starlink disruption in Ukraine
EU countries are intensifying discussions on building independent defence capabilities and reducing reliance on the US after Starlink was disrupted in Ukraine, Bloomberg reported on 27 October. At the EU summit on 15-16 October, participants discussed the service disruptions and a new public clash between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and the White House chief Donald Trump. European officials reviewed options to expand their own capabilities and diversify key technology suppliers, but implementing such plans would take years, so the bloc called for greater European participation in existing structures such as NATO. The article also cites Elon Musk's 24 October claim that Ukrainian forces used Starlink for offensive drone attacks, and Trump's 22 October statement that Ukraine's access to SpaceX's Starshield had been restored.

- Oil prices rise as Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabian refinery raise supply worries
Oil prices rose on Wednesday as investors weighed a possibly prolonged and widening Middle East conflict after Tehran-backed Houthis attacked Saudi Arabia's largest refinery, Ras Tanura, with a ballistic missile. Brent rose $1.50, or 1.32%, to $115.59 a barrel, while WTI gained $1.47, or 1.47%, to $101.37. President Trump said the war with Iran would end on his terms and that Tehran must be prevented from acquiring nuclear weapons.

- Elon Musk Says SpaceX Is Now a “Super Intelligence” Company
In its third-quarter report, SpaceX (SPCX) renamed its artificial intelligence segment “Super Intelligence,” a term CEO Elon Musk favors and that President Donald Trump has promoted. Sales for the segment rose 830% year on year to $7.56 billion, making it the largest segment by revenue and more than the combined $7.02 billion of its space and connectivity segments. On the third-quarter call, Musk said he expects annualized recurring revenue of $500 billion to $1 trillion by the end of 2027. The article puts the market capitalization at roughly $2 trillion against $18.7 billion in sales last year, describes the stock as high-risk, high-reward, and argues that the segment's momentum justifies the valuation.

- Far ahead of the US, China and Germany, Vietnam enters world's top 2 in a key field
Vietnam entered the top 50 economies in the 2026 Global Innovation Index (GII), ranking 43rd after rising one place from 2025 and improving 16 places since 2016. On the output side, Vietnam climbed from 37th to 35th, ranking above its 54th place on inputs, which reflects its ability to turn innovation resources into results. Vietnam ranked second among the 36 lower-middle-income economies, behind India, and third in Southeast Asia behind Singapore and Malaysia. Vietnam shares first place globally with Malaysia in high-tech exports, at 36.6% of total trade, while Singapore reached 25.8% and China 23.26%. WIPO said the next step is to expand domestic research, patent filings and knowledge creation, since strong high-tech exports do not mean all technology originates domestically.
