- Market Pulse 27/10: Still Choppy, Consolidating
VN-Index slipped 1.7 points to 1,761.87 and HNX-Index edged up 0.2 points to 259.5, as trading stayed choppy with 420 stocks declining against nearly 300 advancing. Stocks in banking and oil and gas mostly fell, with TCB, HCM and SSB down 1–2%, while VIC supported the index in the morning session. Foreign investors net sold VND 320 billion overall, though they net bought TCB (VND 196 billion) and VNZ (VND 171 billion), and net sold ACB and FPT at VND 177 billion and nearly VND 150 billion. Morning liquidity of nearly 6 thousand billion VND signaled cautious trading, while materials and non-essential consumer stocks held up better.
- Stocks Fall for Third Consecutive Session
VN-Index closed near 1,762 points, down nearly 2 points, marking its third straight session of decline, though the index fell just 0.1% thanks to VIC, which rose 1.4% to 240,200 dong and added over 5 points. There were 192 decliners against 118 advancers, with oil and gas, chemicals, technology, securities and banking the weakest sectors. HoSE trading value reached over 13,900 billion dong, and foreign investors were net sellers of about 427 billion dong, led by ACB and FPT. VPX said short-term profit-taking pressure prevented the index from sustaining gains, and that new buying calls for caution, with investors waiting for the index to form a balance zone around MA20 before deploying capital again.
- Market pulse 15/10: Index trades in a narrow range as the market stays sharply polarized
On 15/10, the VN-Index fell 6.5 points, near its intraday low, while HOSE liquidity reached 14.8 trillion VND, up more than 9% from the previous session. The market was sharply polarized: securities stocks rose broadly, with BSI and CTS hitting the ceiling price, while energy stocks slid, led by BSR (-6.3%), PVT (-4.3%), PVS (-4.2%) and GAS (-3.1%). MBB gained 2.8% and contributed the most points to the index. Foreign investors net sold for a tenth consecutive session, focusing on VIC, STB and TCB, while MBB was the most heavily net bought stock.
- Warrants Market on October 29, 2026: Mixed Gains and Losses
At the close on October 28, 2026, 135 warrants rose, 138 fell and 62 were unchanged, with foreign investors net buying VND 124.74 million. Trading volume reached 64.16 million CW, up 10.1%, and value reached VND 45.59 billion, up 5.75% from October 27. CACB2619 led by volume with 2.82 million CW, CHDB2615 led by value with VND 2.68 billion, and CACB2607 and CHDB2604 were the most net-bought warrants. LPS, SSI, ACBS, VND and HCM are the issuers with the most warrants listed. VN-Index rose 4.78 points (+0.27%) to 1,766.65, and HNX-Index rose 0.36 points (+0.14%) to 259.86.
- Vietstock Daily 29/10/2026: Need more momentum?
VN-Index rose 0.27% to 1,766.65 points in the October 28, 2026 session, while HNX gained 0.14% to 259.86 points; HOSE trading volume rose 9.3% but stayed below its 20-session average. Foreign investors net sold over VND 267 billion on HOSE but net bought over VND 15 billion on HNX. Banks such as HDB (+3.86%) and VCB (+2.5%) supported the index, while FPT (-2.53%) faced the heaviest selling in the IT sector. On technicals, the Stochastic Oscillator and MACD still point upward, but the index needs to clear the 50-day SMA with improving liquidity; on HNX-Index, the gap between the 50-day and 200-day SMAs is narrowing, and a Death Cross would make the outlook weaker.

- Prediction: This Cryptocurrency Will Outperform Bitcoin in 2027
The article argues NEAR Protocol could outperform Bitcoin in 2027, after Bitcoin soared more than 40% in Q3 while NEAR rose 173% over the past 90 days and nearly 200% for the year. The author says NEAR is a Layer-1 blockchain built for the AI agent economy and is now the top AI crypto with a $6 billion market cap, ahead of Bittensor at $3 billion and Venice Token at $1 billion. Risks cited include an AI bust that could hit NEAR hard and a shift in the AI agent narrative, as happened to Virtuals Protocol, which fell sharply in 2025 after being a top performer in 2024. Supporting factors include a spot NEAR ETF launched in September and protocol revenue being used for token buybacks, while the author suggests Bitcoin investors may have to settle for annualized returns of around 10%.
- Muse Goes Regional: Singapore Becomes Meta’s Fourth AI Agent Market as Enterprise Pricing Stays Unpublished
Meta's newsroom says its Muse personal AI agent went live in Singapore on October 27, 2026, making it the fourth market after the United States, Canada and Japan in seven weeks. Early connectors include Shopee, Grab, Singapore Airlines, Agoda, ShopBack, Klook, Trip.com and Lazada across shopping, groceries, dining and travel, with more connectors switching on progressively. Meta says Muse keeps credentials on a dedicated cloud machine and checks with users before sending emails or making purchases, and describes the product as free for most needs with subscription plans, but has not published any pricing. Meta's enterprise platform has been announced but not shipped or priced, so businesses still lack a rate card even as the consumer product expands into new markets.
- Alphabet, Microsoft earnings in focus; Warsh on AI, rates - what’s moving markets
U.S. stock index futures were mixed as investors digested a batch of megacap tech earnings and the Federal Reserve's latest rate decision. By 04:03 ET, Nasdaq futures had fallen 400 points, or 1.3%, S&P 500 futures were down 36 points, or 0.5%, and Dow futures were up 150 points, or 0.3%. Alphabet shares were set to drop more than 10% in premarket trading after its third quarter missed expectations, mainly due to weak services revenue and the slowest ad revenue growth in five quarters. Capital expenditures rose $6.5 billion from the prior quarter to $51.4 billion. Samsung's semiconductor operating profit fell short of expectations and its shares fell more than 4% in Korea, even though group-wide operating profit hit a record 100 trillion won (about $74.52 billion). Microsoft shares gained in premarket trading after first-quarter revenue rose 19% to $92.28 billion and Azure grew 48%. Fed Chair Kevin Warsh questioned whether higher interest rates could curb heavy AI spending.
- Opinion: While the Odds of a SpaceX-Tesla Merger Are Climbing, Combining 2 Wrongs Won't Make a Right on Wall Street
The author argues the odds of a SpaceX and Tesla merger are rising, as special committees of independent directors at both companies examine the possibility, and Polymarket traders assigned a 59% chance of a merger announcement by June 30, 2027, as of October 24. In theory, combining the companies could free Musk's time from dividing it among multiple public firms, add cash and pool AI resources, but the author believes the result would be a company with more questions than answers. Tesla, valued at nearly $1.5 trillion, is growing sales only 10% to 15% annually and trades at 172 times Wall Street's consensus 2027 earnings, while its quarterly revenue was flat at $28.0 billion. The author also notes that SpaceX trades at a price-to-sales ratio of 60, so a merger could slow SpaceX's growth and leave the combined entity highly vulnerable to a sharp drop in a market correction.
- Why Microsoft stock isn't getting crushed like Google stock after its earnings report
Alphabet shares fell about 10% in premarket trading after a weak third quarter, while Microsoft rose 4% as its results were seen as higher-than-expected growth that looks sustainable. Microsoft's Azure sales beat estimates by about 300 basis points, with cloud sales up 48% excluding currency effects, and the company guided to 49% to 50% Azure growth next quarter, while capex came in about $5 billion below estimates. Alphabet's search sales of $63.4 billion missed the $64.9 billion expected, and its negative free cash flow of $9.1 billion compared with an estimate of negative $3.5 billion. KeyBanc analyst Justin Patterson said search is decelerating and margins have peaked near term, which could create an air pocket over the next 1-2 quarters.
