The VN-Index rose 7.56 points (0.45%) to 1,705 on October 16, ending a seven-session losing streak, helped by gains in banking and securities stocks. Liquidity on HoSE, however, fell to about VND 10,728 billion from VND 14,800 billion the previous session, and foreign investors remained net sellers of nearly VND 560 billion. In contrast, Kosy (KOS) hit the daily floor for the 20th consecutive session, with about 91 million shares in excess sell orders, roughly 42% of shares outstanding, and has lost about 80% in one month. Ms. Hoàng Thị Yến, younger sister-in-law of Chairman Nguyễn Việt Cường, registered to buy 8 million KOS shares from October 15 to November 13, but no purchases had been recorded; earlier, the Chairman and related entities had faced forced sales of KOS shares.

- Stratum Holdings Signs Letter of Intent to Sell Real Estate Operations as It Shifts Focus to AI Infrastructure
Stratum Holdings (SRTM) announced on 19 October 2026 a non-binding letter of intent to sell substantially all of its legacy real estate business, including brokerage, franchising, education, property management, mortgage and title services, to a newly formed subsidiary of an undisclosed buyer. The move supports its shift toward AI infrastructure and GPU leasing, following an earlier long-term lease of Nvidia B300 GPUs announced on 1 October 2026. The company says the sale would reduce liabilities, operating expenses and working-capital needs, and the buyer would assume certain trade payables, but it has not disclosed the consideration, asset valuation or completion date. CEO Nicholas Adler said the company aims to reach profitability in 2027, though no detailed forecasts were provided. The letter is non-binding apart from confidentiality and exclusivity terms, and completion depends on due diligence, a definitive agreement and regulatory approvals.

- Rising interest rates pose a threat to the property market's recovery
Rising interest rates threaten to derail the already fragile recovery in global commercial real estate, forcing many deals to be repriced sharply or put on hold. US 10-year Treasury yields have risen above 5.3%, up from about 4% at the end of February, driven by inflation linked to the Middle East conflict and climbing borrowing costs. Some investors are negotiating discounts of a few percent, including one company seeking a 5% cut on a $100 million industrial deal agreed three months ago. Office construction starts in the UK rose 23% in the third quarter, but on a rolling 12-month basis they remain near a 15-year low. Experts say the current price adjustment is less severe than in 2022.

- An AI bust could come from places investors arent watching , an economist says
Concerns about an AI bubble are growing, and TS Lombard's Dario Perkins warns that investors may be overlooking other risks. Debt among smaller cloud providers, model developers and suppliers could reach $2 trillion by the end of 2027. Perkins does not see this as a systemic risk, but warns that earnings disappointments and canceled orders could ripple through the ecosystem, and that a chip glut could follow over-ordering. Much of the industry's revenue growth still comes from spending within the AI ecosystem rather than from businesses and consumers outside it. He also flags political backlash, noting that ordinary people dislike AI and nearby datacenters, and warns that one high-profile accident could turn AI toxic.
- Yen jumps after JGB auction draws big demand , euro finds relief
The yen rose 0.2% to 158.15 per dollar in Asian trading after a 20-year Japanese government bond auction drew bids of 5.84 times the amount sold, well above the 4.01 times at the previous auction, and the yield fell 6 basis points to 3.71%. A State Street strategist said the record demand suggests sidelined cash is returning and that JGBs are becoming a relative haven from political and fiscal volatility in Europe, particularly France. Anti-government protests in France prompted curfews in several cities, while Italy said it would send 500 troops after two days of unrest, and the euro rallied 0.2% to $1.1234. Elsewhere, bitcoin slipped 0.3% to $81,674.25 and ether edged down 0.2% to $2,393.21.
- Unemployment rate dips to 4 . 7 % - but vacancies hit five - year low
Vacancies fell by 21,000 to 691,000 in the three months to September, the biggest drop since the three months to March and the lowest since July to September 2014 outside the pandemic, while unemployment dipped in the three months to August. Payroll numbers were down 66,000 over the year to September. The ONS said the fall was mainly among smaller firms struggling with higher labour costs, following rises in employer national insurance, the minimum wage and workers' rights. A CBI survey found labour costs and regulations were making it harder to create jobs, and firms urged the Chancellor not to add to their burden in the October 28 Budget. ICAEW's Suren Thiru said the labour market is 'running on idle' and unemployment could climb above 5 per cent, while Shadow Chancellor Andrew Griffith blamed Labour's 'Jobs Tax' and red tape.

Nvidia also unveiled plans to back four German AI startups as part of its nearly $10 billion European investment commitment.

In Singapore, several agricultural stocks fell after Senior Minister K Shanmugam warned that companies would not escape responsibility for possible roles in the haze, noting seven firms had been questioned by the Singapore Exchange.
- NiSource (NI) Stock Looks Overvalued Against Its Dividend Outlook
NiSource has nearly doubled shareholders' money over the past five years, delivering a 97.6% total return, which raises the question of whether dividends can justify the current share price. The article highlights a new 20-year energy agreement with Microsoft, including customer-funded grid upgrades and long-term electric service for data centers, which may affect future capital needs and cash-flow visibility. Using a Dividend Discount Model with inputs of about $1.35 dividend per share, roughly 9.07% return on equity, a payout ratio slightly above 61%, and implied dividend growth of about 3.5%, the estimated intrinsic value sits meaningfully below the current share price of $41.95. The model still does not bridge that gap, suggesting income investors are paying a premium for a relatively steady payout with modest assumed growth.
