TCBS reported a record Q3 2026 pre-tax profit of VND 2,152 billion, lifting nine-month pre-tax profit to VND 5,708 billion, up 13% year-on-year and 76% of its full-year plan. Margin lending and advances remained the main growth driver, with net income of VND 1,548 billion (up 55%) and outstanding balances of VND 54,740 billion as of 30/09/2026 (up 25% from end-2025). Brokerage, commission and custody income fell 39% to VND 64 billion, mainly because high interest rates weighed on fund certificate distribution. Investment banking income rose 45% to VND 740 billion, and customer accounts exceeded 1.3 million, up 14% year-on-year. Funding and bond distribution income was VND 1,155 billion, up 1%, with over VND 45.6 trillion of corporate bonds distributed, up 144%.

- Securities firm update as of October 19: TCBS posts record profit, many firms report weaker Q3 earnings, some swing to losses
As of the afternoon of October 19, 20 securities companies had reported Q3 2026 results. TCBS (ticker TCX) posted pre-tax profit of VND 2,152 billion in Q3, its highest quarterly level on record, driven mainly by margin lending and advances on sales proceeds, which generated net income of VND 1,548 billion, up 55%. JBSV's pre-tax profit exceeded VND 46 billion, three times the same period last year, supported by lending and underwriting. In contrast, DSC's Q3 pre-tax profit fell 98% as proprietary trading weakened and costs rose; Pinetree's fell 28%; ASAM posted a pre-tax loss of over VND 1 billion, and VISC swung to a loss of over VND 812 million.
- 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 awaits boost from trading infrastructure
SGI Capital says Vietnam's macro picture after the first three quarters of 2026 still shows bright spots, but the stock market enters the fourth quarter facing two risks: policy pressure and liquidity risk from margin leverage. After the FTSE upgrade, trading liquidity fell below VND 15,000 billion per session and foreign investors turned to heavy net selling, driven by fears of rising global inflation and interest rates. Margin debt at a historically high level is seen as a risk that could trigger forced-sale pressure as cash demand rises in the fourth quarter. Longer term, Circular 145/2026/TT-BTC, effective 16/11/2026, introduces CCP clearing and removes the 100% cash pre-funding (NPF) requirement for foreign institutional investors, which Hàn Hữu Hậu, CEO of Hy Maxpro, called an important upgrade.
- Global sharemarket outlook: Strong earnings face risk from higher interest rates
Share markets have held up well despite rising interest rates, with the ASX 200 flat and the NZX 50 up about 2%, while conservative assets fell as rates rose. Markets expect S&P 500 earnings growth of almost 30% in the upcoming reporting season, and the index's 12-month forward P/E of 19.1 is in line with its 10-year average. Central banks may keep tightening: the Reserve Bank of New Zealand's Official Cash Rate is expected to finish the year at 3%, up from 2.75% today, and the US 10-year Treasury yield has climbed to 5.4%, its highest since 2002. The article notes that the December quarter has historically been the strongest for US shares, averaging a 3.1% gain since 1930. It also compares today's backdrop to 2018, when the S&P 500 fell 14% in the last three months of that year.

- Is Visa Stock Still a Buy After Gaining 14% This Year?
Visa shares hit an all-time high of $401, up about 12% over the past two weeks from $359 at the end of September and up 14% year to date. Key catalysts include approval from the People's Bank of China to set up a bankcard clearing institution in China and the move of Visa Direct's stablecoin to commercial deployment on Oct. 15. Baird and BMO Capital both raised their price targets. Visa reports fiscal fourth-quarter earnings on Oct. 27 and has raised its dividend every year since 2009, last year by 14% to $0.67 per share. The author still considers the stock a buy ahead of earnings, citing a forward P/E of 24.

- Crypto vault deposits top $10 billion as lending risks draw regulatory scrutiny
Deposits into crypto lending vaults have risen from $4 billion at the start of last year to more than $10 billion, according to the Financial Times. Each vault is run by a 'curator' who selects lending strategies through smart contracts on DeFi platforms, sets risk limits and collects fees, with typical returns of 3% to 10% and riskier strategies reaching 20% or more. Risks include illiquid or hard-to-sell collateral, automatic liquidations, hacks and coding errors, while investors may focus on headline yields. Fintechs, digital asset treasury firms and hedge funds are among the main depositors, and Bitcoin lender Two Prime launched a vault on Pareto targeting 1.5% to 2% yields, with a minimum deposit of 5 WBTC and about $10 million of its own capital absorbing initial losses. U.S. and European regulators are examining whether existing rules should apply, and the SEC has questioned vaults that hold securities.
