KOS shares of Kosy Joint Stock Company closed at the floor price of VND 3,800 per share on October 29, down nearly 7%, marking the 29th consecutive session at the floor. More than 63 million shares were still waiting to be sold at the floor price, while only about 1.4 million shares changed hands. Compared with the close above VND 30,000 per share on September 18, the price has fallen more than 87%, shrinking market capitalization from over VND 6,500 billion to about VND 823 billion. Forced-sale notices kept appearing for shares held by Chairman Nguyễn Việt Cường, Mr. Nguyễn Trung Kiên, Kosy Real Estate and Leo Regulus, but most sell orders failed to match. Kosy said its real estate and renewable energy operations remain on schedule, and for the first half of 2026 it reported revenue of nearly VND 723 billion, up 9%, and profit after tax of about VND 15 billion.

It had also been forced to sell 8,000 shares on 29/9/2026 and from 1/10/2026 to 5/10/2026. Leo Regulus Investment JSC, another company linked to Cường and Deputy Chairwoman Nguyễn Thị Hằng, had 4,732 shares sold, cutting its stake to 10.251%. Meanwhile, Cường's sister-in-law, Hoàng Thị Yến, registered to buy 8 million KOS shares from 15/10/2026 to 13/11/2026, which would raise her stake to 3.71%. Kosy said KOS hit the floor price for 5 consecutive sessions from 5/10 to 9/10/2026 due to market momentum and forced margin sales, and that its core operations remain normal.
- Chairman of Kosy Group and related companies have KOS shares forcibly sold
Kosy Group chairman Nguyễn Việt Cường and two related companies, Kosy Real Estate Investment and Leo Regulus Investment, had KOS shares forcibly sold by securities firms through margin liquidation.

Kosy Group attributed KOS's five consecutive limit-down sessions to a market downturn, brokerages reducing margin lending and forced selling, and said its core business operations remain on schedule.
- 25 Consecutive Limit-Down Sessions: Provincial Real Estate Firm Stirs Market
Kosy (HOSE: KOS) closed at 5,050 dong on 23 October, its 25th consecutive limit-down session, down more than 82% from 32,950 dong on 16 September, and its market capitalisation fell from about 7,133 billion dong to 1,257 billion dong. The family group of Chairman Nguyễn Việt Cường holds over 134 million shares, or more than 62% of the company, and some of these shares are pledged as collateral for bank loans. From late September to mid-October 2026, securities firms carried out forced sales of over 561,000 of Cường's shares, nearly 763,000 shares linked to Kosy Real Estate and about 4,700 shares linked to Leo Regulus. Forced-sale attempts for over 8.6 million shares held by Vice Chair Nguyễn Thị Hằng and 9 million shares held by Deputy General Director Nguyễn Thị Phương Thảo failed due to weak demand. Kosy attributes the decline to weak market conditions, lower liquidity, investor sentiment and securities firms cutting margin lending, and says its core real estate, renewable energy and project operations are proceeding as planned.
- Doctorate-Holding Chairman Repeatedly Hit by Forced Margin Share Sales
Kosy Chairman Nguyễn Việt Cường has had shares sold under margin forced liquidation again, the second time in under a month, as KOS extends a run of limit-down sessions. From 19 to 23 October 2026 he lost 175,287 shares, cutting his stake from 33.17% to 33.09% of charter capital, bringing his total sold across recent periods to 736,951 shares. Two related entities, Kosy Real Estate Investment Co., Ltd. and Leo Regulus Investment JSC, were also sold 445,500 and 175,870 shares. KOS closed at 5,050 VND on 23 October, its 25th consecutive limit-down session and more than 82% below 32,950 VND on 16 September. Kosy attributed the pressure to weak liquidity, selling sentiment and some brokers cutting margin lending ratios and liquidating positions, while its reviewed H1 2026 net profit of over 15 billion VND, up about 121%, was only near 13% of its full-year plan.
- One real estate stock hits the daily floor for the 20th straight session
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.
- Chairman With a PhD Sees Shares Force-Sold by Securities Firm
Kosy Chairman Nguyen Viet Cuong (PhD) had 560,854 KOS shares force-sold by a securities firm between October 7 and 13, 2026, reducing his stake to about 33.17% of outstanding shares. A related entity, Kosy Real Estate Investment Co., Ltd., also had 8,000 shares force-sold on September 29 and from October 1 to 5. KOS has hit the floor price for 17 consecutive sessions, closing at 8,960 dong, with 75.6 million shares (about 35% of the company's total) offered at the floor and almost no buying demand. Kosy attributes the slide to momentum selling and to some brokers cutting margin lending ratios and forcing sales, while stating that its core real estate, renewable energy and project operations remain on plan. Its reviewed mid-year 2026 consolidated financial statements show revenue of nearly 723 billion dong (up 9%) and after-tax profit of over 15 billion dong (up about 121%), only about 13% of the 120 billion dong full-year target. Hoang Thi Yen, sister-in-law of Chairman Cuong, has registered to buy 8 million KOS shares from October 15 to November 13, which would raise her stake to about 3.71%.

- These 2 Stocks Have Skyrocketed in 2026. Here’s Why I’d Stay Away
Moderna (MRNA) shares are up 570% and Iovance Biotherapeutics (IOVA) up 433% so far this year, following clinical and commercial progress. The author argues Moderna's $77 billion market cap already prices in its personalized cancer vaccine intismeran autogene despite positive Phase 3 results; assuming $5 billion in profits by 2031 and a 12% required rate of return, the company would need a forward P/E of 27.1 to justify today's valuation. For Iovance, second-quarter revenue rose almost 66% to $99 million on Amtagvi sales and loss per share narrowed to $0.11, but trailing 12-month revenue was $324.9 million against a $6.6 billion market cap. The author highlights manufacturing, administration and clinical-regulatory risks, and is skeptical Iovance can outperform the broader market over the next five years.
- Crypto Spends $176 Million on Midterms, But Only 13% of Voters See It as a Priority
Only 13% of Americans say it is very important for candidates to support crypto and DeFi, according to an Ipsos survey for the DeFi Education Fund. A broader item, encouraging the building of next-generation financial technology in the U.S., ranked highest at 35%, with Republicans leading Democrats 45% to 30% on that item. Meanwhile, the crypto industry has spent about $176 million on more than 100 midterm races this cycle, per a Reuters review, with Fairshake and its affiliates accounting for about $150.8 million through Oct. 20. The Clarity Act failed a key Senate vote in September over ethics provisions tied to President Donald Trump's crypto interests, and the industry has since turned to the SEC and CFTC to write rules. The survey also found 63% say the financial system needs an upgrade to combat threats like AI and cybercrime.
- Cruise companies aim to keep fuel costs down. Their strategies for doing so differ
Carnival, Royal Caribbean and Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings posted strong quarterly earnings despite rising fuel prices. Brent crude reached a six-month high of $116.72 per barrel after the U.S.-Israel war with Iran began on Feb. 28. Royal Caribbean and Norwegian use derivatives to hedge fuel costs, while Carnival CEO Josh Weinstein says cutting consumption is the best way to control costs; the company says its unit fuel consumption fell 26% since 2019, saving an estimated $700 million in 2026. Royal Caribbean is a little over 60% hedged for 2026 and Norwegian about 48%. Jefferies analyst David Katz said hedging helps manage fuel costs and reduce stock volatility, though it is more expensive over the long term.
- Yardeni Says AI Investment Boom Is Here To Stay — But Warns AI Stock Jitters Could Persist
Market veteran Ed Yardeni expects the AI investment boom to continue but warns AI-related stocks could stay volatile. He cites three factors reviving confidence: about $235 billion in prospective AI financing, including Anthropic's (ANT) expected $100 billion IPO, Meta Platforms' (META) plans to raise up to $95 billion via equity, and SpaceX's (SPCX) $40 billion GPU financing; improving AI economics; and strong semiconductor earnings. Anthropic's IPO filing showed first-half revenue rising to $16.3 billion from $1.2 billion, with operating losses narrowing to $693 million from $2.1 billion, and customers spending at least $100,000 annually climbing to 11,900 from about 950. Google Cloud revenue more than doubled to $30.7 billion, while SK Hynix's (SKHY) third-quarter operating profit rose more than sevenfold. On the FOMC's 10-2 vote to hold rates at 3.75%–4%, Yardeni Research said another 50 basis points of tightening is needed to return rates to a neutral 4.25%–4.50%, and it would not rule out a 50-basis-point hike in December.
- Why Alphabet (GOOGL) shares are sliding today
Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL) shares fell 12.1% in the morning session after third-quarter results showed slowing search advertising growth and surging AI capital expenditures. Revenue rose 25% to $127.58 billion, roughly in line with the $127.9 billion consensus, but diluted EPS of $2.12 missed the expected $3.02, partly due to an $8.7 billion loss on equity securities. Capital spending reached $51.36 billion, pushing free cash flow to negative $9.07 billion, and Google Search revenue grew 12% to $63.35 billion, below Street forecasts. CFO Anat Ashkenazi said capital spending will rise significantly next year from the current $195 billion to $205 billion guidance range, and the stock is now at $286.27, 28.9% below its 52-week high of $402.62.
