- Investors look to earnings to reset the bull market. The key level to watch on the S&P 500
The S&P 500 remains in an uptrend but is chopping around a flat 50-day moving average, a level first reached 11 weeks ago. AI-hardware stocks have sold off sharply, bank shares are trading poorly after results, credit markets are under strain, and the Nasdaq has retreated 5%. JP Morgan's Jason Hunter leans cautious, saying a further drop of about 2.5% to 7500 would cost the market the benefit of the doubt. The article recalls 2018, when the S&P 500 fell 19% in the fourth quarter of a midterm year even as earnings grew more than 20%, while tightening now comes from higher Treasury yields, wider credit spreads and a stronger dollar. Bank of America's Aditya Bhave maintains a non-consensus call for an October Fed rate hike, while Morgan Stanley's Mike Wilson argues Chairman Warsh should acknowledge the tightening.
- Wall Street climbs after SpaceX third - quarters earnings
U.S. stocks rose Wednesday, with SpaceX shares jumping sharply after it reported 161 percent third-quarter revenue growth and ninefold growth in its AI business. The S&P 500 gained 0.58% to close at 7,757.22, the Dow added 0.69% to 52,857.10, and the Nasdaq Composite rose 1.05% to 26,702.86, the session's strongest performer. Cresset's Joe Zidle said SpaceX is not an anomaly and that similar gains could become more common in the sector by the end of earnings season. Currency markets were quiet, with the dollar slightly weaker against most majors and EUR-USD at 1.1234. Germany's DAX rose 1.35% to 25,645.04, while Hong Kong's Hang Seng fell 0.90% and Japan's Nikkei 225 rose 0.85%.

- The US signals again to Russia: Washington unexpectedly considers lifting sanctions on Russia's major investment fund
According to TASS, the US Treasury may review a sanctions exemption request from the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF) through its standard process, an anonymous US official said. This is only an initial review and does not mean Washington has decided to lift restrictions; RDIF was placed on the sanctions list on February 28, 2022. RDIF CEO Kirill Dmitriev, who is also Putin's special envoy, is taking part in contacts aimed at boosting Russia-US economic ties and finding a solution to the Ukraine conflict. Earlier, on October 9, President Trump announced a deal with President Putin to bring Russian diesel back to the US and international markets, with planned shipments of about 300,000 tonnes in October, 500,000 tonnes in November and one million tonnes after that. If sanctions are eventually eased, the article says, this could open more room for economic cooperation between the two countries.

- Vietnam's financial market in 2027 faces pressure on liquidity and credit quality
Saigon Ratings says Vietnam's financial market showed significant changes in the first nine months of 2026: GDP grew 9.01%, realised total social investment reached about VND 3,109.6 trillion (up 15.1%), and realised FDI reached USD 21.07 billion (up 12.1%). As of 28 September 2026, credit growth was 10.89%, below 13.37% a year earlier and faster than deposit mobilisation (9.78%) by about 1.11%, which could strain liquidity if loan demand rises sharply late in the year. Corporate bond issuance is recovering but diverging across issuers, with heavy maturity pressure in Q4 2026 and 2027, especially in real estate. Average CPI for nine months was 4.52% and the goods trade deficit was USD 19.42 billion, factors that could affect capital mobilisation and credit quality. Saigon Ratings outlines three development scenarios for 2027.

- Technical analysis of the afternoon session on 28/10: Prolonged sideways trading
VN-Index continued to trade sideways and formed a Dragonfly Doji candlestick pattern while moving toward its 50-day SMA, but it remains above the middle line of the Bollinger Bands. The MACD is rising after crossing above its signal line, and the Stochastic Oscillator has moved out of oversold territory, pointing to a positive short-term outlook. HNX-Index also traded sideways with a small-bodied candle and lower volume, and sits below the Bollinger Bands middle line as the gap between its 50-day and 200-day SMAs narrows. The article says a Death Cross would make the outlook less favorable. These signals are for reference only, based on realtime data up to the close of the morning session, and may change when the afternoon session ends.
- Tesla-SpaceX Merger Needs No Premium, Investor Says — But Floats $500 To Sway Angry Holders Missing Bigger Payoff
Larry Goldberg of LumaSenti says Tesla shareholders do not need a premium to benefit from a SpaceX merger, but floats $500 a share as a figure that could persuade reluctant investors, and says his priority is completing the deal. He argues that the lower the premium, the higher the value of the SpaceX stock received, and that combining assets and cash flows could help finance a computing buildout he estimates at $500 billion to $1 trillion. Brad Gerstner of Altimeter Capital suggests a $420 to $550 range, while ARK's modeling projects benefits for both shareholder groups from a no-premium swap. Tesla's quarterly filing confirms a special committee is exploring a deeper relationship with SpaceX; Musk says the committees have not agreed on terms and Tesla would need approval from 50% of all shares.
