- NPL Handling Should Be Based on Realistic Recovery Ability
According to the latest data as of October 14, 2026, total credit outstanding across the economy exceeded VND 20.72 million billion, up 11.44% from end-2025. According to FiinRatings, the NPL ratio remained stable at 1.9% in the first half of 2026, but special mention loans rose to 1.3%, while the NPL coverage ratio fell to about 80%, its lowest in five years. BIDV Chairman Le Ngoc Lam proposed allowing NPLs to be sold at market prices, even below book value, on a public and transparent basis, arguing that prolonged processing can raise costs and erode collateral value. The article also cites Decisions 1413/QĐ-TTg and 1809/QĐ-TTg and Decree 359/2026/NĐ-CP, which are expected to strengthen VAMC's role in NPL resolution and the development of the debt trading market.
- Bitcoin faces fresh pressure after Fed’s hawkish rate hold: Analysts
The Fed held its benchmark rate at 3.75% to 4% in a 10-2 vote, with Governor Lisa Cook and Cleveland Fed President Beth Hammack favoring a quarter-point increase.

Bitget analyst Lewis Huang said Bitcoin's next move may depend more on Treasury yields, the US dollar and broader risk sentiment than on the Fed decision, while analysts are watching Thursday's PCE inflation report and tech earnings.

- OpenAI Reportedly Plans to Buy Google's AI Chips. Should You Sell Nvidia Stock?
According to The Information, OpenAI plans to buy Google's AI chips, though no financial terms were disclosed and OpenAI declined to comment. The author argues the report says less than its headline implies: OpenAI had rented Google's TPUs in 2025 for early testing, this is a plan rather than an order, and the report does not say OpenAI is cutting back on Nvidia. Nvidia has estimated OpenAI's current and planned commitments at around 12 gigawatts and an opportunity of about $600 billion through 2030, while expecting supply to remain a bottleneck at least through fiscal 2028. At around $218, Nvidia shares trade at about 14 times analysts' average forecast for fiscal 2028 earnings, and the author does not think the report is enough reason to sell the stock.
