- Why are securities stocks lagging despite high expectations?
Securities stocks have remained weak despite expectations of gains from FTSE Russell's market upgrade and capital market development. According to VietstockFinance, as of 09/10/2026 the sector index was down 23.46% year-to-date, much deeper than the 2.77% decline of VN-Index, and had lost 39.92% over the past year. About 80% of the 43 sector stocks were more than 20% below their recent peaks, a threshold commonly used to define a bear market. Võ Kim Phụng of Chứng khoán Beta said the sector's earnings depend on liquidity, margin lending and interest rates, and that expected gains were priced in earlier; in Q3/2026, average daily trading value on HOSE and HNX fell 58% year-on-year.

- Stock market after upgrade: Can IPOs accelerate and mid-day trading become feasible?
After the market upgrade, Vietnam’s stock market needs better trading infrastructure, more quality supply and stronger IPOs to help raise a target of 5.4 million billion VND in medium- and long-term capital over 2026–2030. Deputy Chairwoman of the State Securities Commission Lê Thị Việt Nga said 10 companies have carried out IPOs since late 2025, raising a total of 60,900 billion VND, more than nine times the 2021–2024 total, with 7 already listed. On mid-day trading, VNX Chairman Lương Hải Sinh said the exchange is still studying the option, which requires careful assessment of technology readiness, operating costs and the burden on securities firms, noting Singapore returned to a trading break in 2017 after continuous trading from 2011. In the first nine months, capital raised through the stock market reached 731,600 billion VND, up 85.6% year on year, and market capitalization exceeded 10.3 million billion VND by end-September.
- Industry Profits Plunge and Investors Lose Money, Yet Securities Firms Earn Heavily From Lending
Industry-wide profit for securities firms in Q3/2026 fell 42% year on year to about VND 11,000 billion, while average matched trading value on HoSE dropped to VND 13,000-14,000 billion per session, less than half of last year's level. In contrast, interest income from lending and receivables across the industry reached a record VND 12,300 billion, up 34% year on year and rising for 11 consecutive quarters. The main drivers were margin lending outstanding of VND 455,000 billion, of which VND 440,000 billion was margin, the highest ever, along with high interest rates. The article notes that this is gross income rather than net income, since firms still bear funding costs for the lending business, and that gains are uneven, with firms backed by banks such as TCBS, VPBankS and ACBS leading.

- Why Super Micro Computer Stock Popped Today
Super Micro Computer (SMCI) shares rose 9.19% on Wednesday after the server maker announced preliminary results. It expects fiscal 2027 first-quarter revenue of $18.5 billion to $19.5 billion, well above its prior guidance of $14.5 billion to $15.5 billion and Wall Street's roughly $15 billion estimate, driven by rising AI demand. Gross margin is projected at 12% to 12.5%, up from 10.4% to 10.8%, due to a more favorable customer and product mix, and fellow server makers Dell and Hewlett Packard Enterprise also rose. The earnings call is scheduled for Nov. 3 at 5:00 p.m. ET.
- BlackRock's Rick Rieder sees 'historic' opportunity in high-quality bonds
BlackRock's Rick Rieder told CNBC that investors have a 'historic' chance to earn attractive yields in high-quality credit despite bond market volatility. He said a diversified portfolio could now yield over 7% with under three years of duration and an average credit quality of A-, a level that usually appears only during economic or default problems, which he does not see now. Rieder favors investment-grade corporates, including hyperscalers like Alphabet, Amazon, Meta and Oracle, which have low leverage and strong cash flows, though they have issued about $228.4 billion in bonds this year. He advises patience since rates could still rise, and caution outside investment grade, especially AI data center debt not backed by hyperscalers. He expects the Fed to hike in December, though he disagrees, and flags rising government debt, with the US fiscal 2026 deficit at $2 trillion.
- Almadex Expands Claim Block at New Hope, Provides Exploration Update
Almadex Minerals expanded its claim block at the New Hope copper-gold porphyry project in Arizona, covering a broad area of high chargeability east of its two-hole drilling campaign. Mapping and geophysics suggest the drilled holes sit on the western edge of a 2.5 km x 0.75 km zone of phyllic and remnant lithocap alteration, and IP work extended the anomaly 1.95 km east. The second hole returned 6.00 metres at 0.15% copper and 156 ppm molybdenum, including 2.00 metres at 0.34% copper. The company is designing a potential phase II drilling program. At the King target in Colorado, one hole reached 980 metres, and samples are awaiting assay.
- Mustang Completes IP Geophysical Surveys and Announces Q4 Drilling Plans for the Confusion Hills Project, Nevada, USA
Mustang Minerals has completed IP geophysical surveys at its Confusion Hills and Pilot projects in Nevada, helping better define drill targets. Pilot still needs further work before drilling, while the company has enough information to plan a single-hole exploratory diamond drilling program at Confusion Hills, where preparatory work has begun. Confusion Hills covers a 1.6 km x 0.5 km high sulphidation lithocap, where grab samples reached up to 7.1 g/t gold, and 6 samples returned over 0.1 g/t gold, averaging 1.6 g/t. Mustang will update when drilling begins. The Pilot copper-gold prospect has an approved drill permit, and the company also holds the Red Ring project.
- Warren Buffett's Latest Warning Is Sending Shockwaves Through Wall Street. Here's What History Says Could Happen Next.
Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway portfolio has returned an average compound annual 19.7% over six decades, versus 10.5% for the S&P 500, and he has recently warned about a 'gambling mood' in the stock market and high equity prices. The S&P 500's CAPE ratio stands at 40.7, far above its average of 17.4 and exceeded only during the dot-com bubble, when it peaked at 44 in late 1999. In his final meeting as Berkshire CEO in May 2025, Buffett warned that the US fiscal deficit was unsustainable; the article argues the situation has since worsened, with Brent crude up 80% since the start of the year and September inflation at 3.7%, well above the Fed's 2% target. Higher inflation erodes the value of cash and keeps interest rates high, which could be particularly harmful for the AI industry. The article recalls Buffett's 2021 advice to 'never bet against America' and suggests that time in the market usually beats trying to time it.
- AST SpaceMobile Hit a 52-Week Low Days After SpaceX Spent $8 Billion on Spectrum. That's Not a Coincidence.
AST SpaceMobile hit a 52-week low of $39.02 on Oct. 20, 12 days after SpaceX agreed to buy Grain Management's nationwide 800 MHz low-band spectrum for $8 billion. The article says the deal could let Starlink, combined with over 10,000 active satellites, become a standalone wireless carrier, threatening AT&T and Verizon's plans with AST. However, the author argues the sell-off is an overreaction, since carriers may need to invest more in AST's satellites to compete, and SpaceX's move may push more carriers toward AST. AST has launched 13 BlueBird satellites and needs at least 45 for stable service, and the decline is attributed mainly to a valuation of 74 times this year's sales. Analysts expect revenue to rise from $168 million in 2026 to $1.73 billion in 2028.
