- Market Pulse 23/10: VN-Index Sustains Recovery Momentum as Foreign Investors Return to Net Selling of Over VND 470 Billion
VN-Index rose 13.52 points (+0.77%) to 1,774.15 points, while HNX-Index gained 1.62 points (+0.62%) to 262.70 points. Market breadth was fairly balanced, with 357 stocks advancing and 352 declining, while the VN30 basket had 20 gainers and 10 decliners. Liquidity rose from the previous session, with VN-Index matched volume exceeding 640 million shares, worth over VND 14.1 trillion. The financial sector led gains at 1.22%, while the communication services sector fell the most at 1.06%. Foreign investors returned to net selling of over VND 478.05 billion on HOSE, concentrated in ACB (VND 469.4 billion), FPT (VND 146.43 billion) and PNJ (VND 109.53 billion).
- VN-Index jumps nearly 70 points, why are accounts still in the red?
VN-Index rose 21.96 points (1.26%) to 1,760.63 in the 22 October session, extending its recovery after two straight gains. Breadth was weak, with 164 stocks falling and 147 rising on HoSE, and liquidity dropped nearly 25% to about VND 15,300 billion, suggesting money flow has not spread evenly. The main support came from Vingroup stocks VIC (+4.16%) and VHM (+3.56%), which together contributed about 19.4 points, while many bank stocks and FPT declined. Foreign investors net bought for a second straight session, about VND 335 billion, though FPT saw net selling of over VND 264 billion. The article says an index gain does not mean all portfolios rose, so investors need to watch market breadth.
- Foreign investors net sell over 900 billion VND
Foreign investors net sold about 908 billion VND in the second straight session, the highest level in half a month, pushing the VN-Index down nearly 11 points to 1,763.5 points. FPT saw the heaviest net selling at 258 billion VND, while other tickers saw sales of only tens of billions each, and foreign buying in MSN, TCB and VIC was modest. Johan Nyvene, chairman of HSC, said capital allocation depends on investor sentiment, economic and political conditions and expected returns relative to risk, and that the market upgrade is a long-prepared roadmap rather than an overnight change. On HoSE, 203 stocks fell against 97 that rose, and total trading value dropped more than 20% to about 13,500 billion VND, reflecting caution. VCBS said cash flow remains fragmented and concentrated in large-caps, while BSI noted investors should avoid raising exposure too quickly before the trend is confirmed.
- Tracking smart money on Oct 22: Foreign investors reverse after 13 selling sessions, TCB attracts both foreign and proprietary buying

VIC drew the most foreign buying at nearly VND 239 billion, while FPT saw net foreign selling of over VND 264 billion. Proprietary desks at brokerages turned to net buying of nearly VND 29 billion, led by VCB at over VND 126 billion.

- A rare phenomenon just appeared on the Vietnamese stock market
Foreign investors net bought VND 190 billion on HoSE on 21/10, their second net-buying session since Vietnam was upgraded to FTSE Russell's secondary emerging market status effective 21/9, ending 20 consecutive sessions of net selling; the article notes the amount is small relative to earlier selling and a reversal cannot yet be confirmed. BSC estimates about VND 33,000 billion (USD 1.27 billion) of upgrade-related inflows next year, following a roadmap of USD 141 million in September 2026, USD 282 million in March 2027 and about USD 494 million each in June and September 2027. BSC also expects selling pressure from active funds to ease after four consecutive years of net selling, and interbank liquidity to improve as the deposit-credit gap narrowed from VND 2.8 quadrillion to VND 2.7 quadrillion in August, the first decline in 11 quarters.

- 100 Million Tonnes of Special 'Treasure' Discovered, Vietnam Moves Immediately to Exploit It
The article argues that rapid industrialization and urbanization put Vietnam in a dual bind: rising demand for construction materials and pressure to handle large volumes of waste. According to UNEP, the world consumes over 42 billion tonnes of materials a year, and shifting to a circular economy that treats waste as a resource has become a vital global strategy. Japan reused and recycled 99.3% of its 12.35 million tonnes of coal ash in 2016, while European countries reused more than 90% of about 40 million tonnes of coal-combustion waste that year. In Vietnam, the Ministry of Construction says the country had consumed about 100 million tonnes of thermal power ash and slag by the end of 2024, though waste backlogs remain a heavy burden in some localities. The article also highlights Song Da Cao Cuong Joint Stock Company (SCL), which pivoted to recycling thermal power ash in 2007 and was among 227 enterprises honored in the 10th Vietnam National Brand program (2026).
- State Securities Commission Issues Important Warning
On October 26, the State Securities Commission (UBCKNN) warned about fake websites impersonating Vietcombank Securities Investment Fund Management Company Limited (VCBF), after receiving a report from the firm. The sites copy VCBF's name, brand, slogans, information and products, and direct visitors to open accounts, place trades, deposit and withdraw money, and submit personal data. UBCKNN says the websites do not belong to VCBF, and their domain names closely resemble that of the VCBF Growth Stock Fund, one of the open-end funds the company manages. Investors are advised to carefully verify website addresses before providing personal information or making financial transactions.
- Kim Jong-un Crosses Yalu River Bridge Into China as Xi Jinping Issues Special Instruction
North Korean leader Kim Jong-un visited China on Saturday, October 24, his first trip there in over a year, according to state media in both countries. He and Wang Huning took part in events marking the 76th anniversary of China's People's Volunteers entering the Korean War, laying a wreath and visiting a memorial in Dandong. According to KCNA, Xi Jinping did not appear at the events but issued a special instruction for Wang Huning to host a banquet welcoming Kim. The New York Times says the visit signals strengthening China-North Korea ties despite international sanctions on Pyongyang, which is also deepening relations with Russia. Kim has visited China many times since 2018, and diplomats and analysts speculate he may attend the informal APEC leaders' summit in Shenzhen next month, though it is unclear whether Beijing has extended an invitation.
- Is SpaceX a Buy After Its Latest Quarterly Results?
The analysis calls SpaceX's (SPCX) third-quarter results extraordinary: revenue rose 161% year over year to $14.6 billion, and the company swung to a $4.4 billion net profit from a $1.1 billion loss a year earlier. The Super Intelligence segment, covering AI infrastructure, cloud services, applications and Cursor, posted $7.56 billion in revenue versus $813 million a year earlier, while the Connectivity segment including Starlink generated $5.25 billion, up 69%, with $2.37 billion in operating income. A first revenue-generating Starship mission deployed 26 Starlink V3 satellites, but the company still needs to show that Starship can operate reliably, frequently and at competitive cost. SpaceX spent $19.6 billion on capital expenditures in Q3, including $16.4 billion in Super Intelligence, and after the report was valued at roughly $2 trillion against annualized revenue of only $58.4 billion. The author considers SpaceX a business worth watching but says they would wait for a more attractive price rather than chase the earnings rally.
- How war, security and coalition math are shaping the Israeli election
Israeli voters go to the polls on Tuesday in the first election since Hamas's October 7, 2023 attacks, which killed around 1,200 people and saw more than 250 abducted; the Palestinian Ministry of Health says Israel's subsequent Gaza campaign has killed more than 74,500 people. The Knesset's 120 seats are allocated by proportional representation, with a 3.25% threshold, and a government needs 61 seats, so coalitions are typical. Polls show neither Benjamin Netanyahu's bloc nor the opposition bloc led by Gadi Eisenkot reaching 61 seats, leaving smaller parties potentially decisive. Analysts say the vote is effectively a referendum on Netanyahu, with security, military conscription of ultra-Orthodox men and war-related economic costs (Israel spends around 8% of GDP on the military) dominating the campaign.
