- VN-Index drops 16 points after strong rally
VN-Index reversed from a strong early rally to close 16 points lower in the first session of the week, finishing below 1,690 points, its lowest in nearly 3 months and more than 12% below its record high of 1,927 points. Selling pressure focused on banks, with VIC down nearly 4% and pulling the index down more than 13 points, while oil and gas stocks such as PVT, BSR and GAS rose about 1-2% and helped limit the decline. Liquidity reached over VND 13,000 billion, and foreign investors extended their net selling to 19 consecutive sessions, buying about VND 1,400 billion against sales of about VND 2,200 billion. MBS said seasonality is driving the market, as October has historically been the weakest period of the year, and Q3 earnings may not be enough to create a broad ripple effect. TPS sees the index nearing long-term support around 1,685 points, with any sustained recovery depending on improved liquidity.

Foreign investors net bought nearly 342 billion VND on HoSE, led by VIC (over 239 billion VND), TCB and VHM, while FPT saw the largest net selling at over 264 billion VND. ASEAN Securities said the index shows a technical rebound signal with buyers temporarily in control, but the market remains neutral because the index has not broken above the MA20 and indicators are not yet uniformly confirmed, so it may trade in a narrow range.

- What's Wrong With On Holding Stock?
On Holding shares are down about 23% this year after second-quarter sales missed Wall Street estimates, and the stock suffered its largest one-day drop in the company's history. The company says the slowdown is intentional, as it is limiting wholesale shipments to promote full-price sales and make room for new products. In its latest quarter, direct-to-consumer sales rose 34.3%, gross margin widened to 65.4% and apparel net sales grew 56.2%, while management expects constant-currency sales growth in the low-20% range for 2026. The stock trades at about 21 times trailing earnings, below the analysts' consensus price target of $43.55, and the company recently authorized a $1 billion share buyback. The author says there is nothing inherently wrong with On Holding and that investors should be patient as growth may slow while the company works through its slowdown.

- The Bond Market Is Sending a Dire Warning to Wall Street About the AI Infrastructure Build-Out, but Is Anyone Paying Attention?
Shortly after SpaceX went public in June, it issued $25 billion of debt across five maturities, but its 2056 bonds have fallen to $0.84, pushing yields above 8%. Credit default swap spreads on five-year debt have also hit record highs for Oracle (about 263 basis points), SpaceX (about 203) and CoreWeave (982). Tech companies have issued nearly $500 billion of new debt this year to fund AI infrastructure, and market-implied five-year default risk for Oracle is above 20%. Goldman Sachs projects hyperscaler debt issuance rising from $250 billion in 2026 to $420 billion in 2027. The author argues that major tech innovations have historically seen early bubbles as investors overestimate adoption speed, though AI demand is strong and businesses may need several years to optimize AI solutions.
- Bitcoin's volatility is well above euro-dollar gyrations, though it has calmed to rival Nvidia's
CoinDesk compares the 90-day realized volatility of bitcoin with other assets, a measure of how much prices moved, based on the standard deviation of daily returns and annualized. As of Thursday, bitcoin stood at about 38%, versus about 23.5% for gold, about 11% for the S&P 500, and about 37% for Nvidia, while the EUR/USD pair was the steadiest at 4.6%. Bitcoin's 90-day volatility has averaged about 58% since January 2020, peaking at 134% in June 2020, and its calmest reading of 27.5% came in September 2025 when prices rose above $100,000. The article concludes that bitcoin has settled down and now moves like a big tech stock, but it has yet to rival a national currency, since most fiat currency pairs have realized volatility below 10%.
