- A bank stock being continuously net-bought by securities firms' proprietary trading for hundreds of billions of dong
Proprietary trading desks of securities firms net bought VND 424 billion on HoSE, while the VN-Index fell 14.55 points (-0.85%) to 1,704.87, its fifth straight session of decline. Foreign investors net sold about VND 782 billion across the market. VPB was the most heavily net-bought stock at VND 227 billion, marking the third consecutive session it topped the list. In contrast, TCB saw the largest net selling by proprietary desks at VND 88 billion.
- Notable stocks at the open of the 20/10 session
Market liquidity fell sharply in the 12–16/10 trading week, with average trading value on HOSE and HNX dropping below 14 trillion VND. The VN-Index lost more than 29 points that week, with VIC and VHM the biggest drags. Securities stocks have fallen over 24% since the start of the year despite expected gains from a market upgrade. In the 19/10 session, ACB saw net selling of hundreds of billions by foreign and proprietary investors, while large money flows moved against the trend at FRT and CTG. Also, 21 of 22 tracked construction and building materials stocks have declined since early 2026, and HOSE moved PLP to restricted trading on 16/10.
- High margin debt , weak liquidity put pressure on stock market recovery
Liquidity in Vietnam's stock market fell below VNĐ15 trillion (US$579 million) per session in September, despite the FTSE Russell upgrade to secondary emerging-market status. SGI Capital warns that high margin lending, weak liquidity and rising deposit rates could push more investors out of stocks and trigger a cycle of margin calls if prices keep falling. Once collateral values drop below required thresholds, brokers may demand more collateral or force-sell holdings, which adds supply and pushes prices lower. Foreign investors have resumed net selling since the start of the year, while listed firms continue to need substantial new capital. The impact depends on the composition of margin debt, collateral ratios and investors' ability to add funds, and the fourth quarter typically brings higher liquidity demand.
- Securities stocks surge unexpectedly as many tickers rush into “green” and “purple” territory
In the October 15 session, signs of cash flow returning to securities stocks pushed many tickers higher, led by CTS of Chứng khoán VietinBank, which hit the daily ceiling and rose 6.79% to VND 20,450 per share, while BSI and VUA gained nearly 7% and 8%. Still, domestic and foreign capital flows have not clearly improved, as rising global government bond yields reduce the appeal of emerging markets. VCBS forecasts third-quarter 2026 profit will fall 29.3% at SSI to VND 1,044 billion, 14% at HCM to VND 379 billion, and 18.7% at VCI to VND 342 billion, citing weaker liquidity and high interest rates that could narrow margin lending spreads. Pinetree expert Nguyễn Đức Anh said investors should keep stock exposure at a moderate level and wait patiently for more attractive valuations.
- Market pulse 15/10: Index trades in a narrow range as the market stays sharply polarized
On 15/10, the VN-Index fell 6.5 points, near its intraday low, while HOSE liquidity reached 14.8 trillion VND, up more than 9% from the previous session. The market was sharply polarized: securities stocks rose broadly, with BSI and CTS hitting the ceiling price, while energy stocks slid, led by BSR (-6.3%), PVT (-4.3%), PVS (-4.2%) and GAS (-3.1%). MBB gained 2.8% and contributed the most points to the index. Foreign investors net sold for a tenth consecutive session, focusing on VIC, STB and TCB, while MBB was the most heavily net bought stock.
- A bank stock unexpectedly drew nearly 300 billion VND in net buying from securities firms' proprietary desks early this week

- What Does i-80 Gold (TSX:IAU) Prioritizing Mineral Point Mean For Its Nevada Plan?
i-80 Gold (TSX:IAU) has outlined an updated Nevada development plan that puts the Mineral Point open pit next in line after the underground hub, alongside progress on refurbishing assets such as the Lone Tree processing plant. The company is also advancing permits across its Nevada portfolio to build out several deposits in a coordinated way. The article says this could move i-80 Gold toward a blended operation combining high-grade underground feed with large-scale heap leach oxide output, spreading fixed costs, though execution and cost control remain central risks. Key checkpoints include first ore from Archimedes underground in Q4 2026, completion of Lone Tree feasibility and pre-commissioning steps toward a late 2027 plant start-up, and Mineral Point and Archimedes studies targeted around mid-2027.
- Meta's Threads Now Has More Monthly Users Than X
Mark Zuckerberg told investors on the October 21, 2026 earnings call that Threads has overtaken X in monthly actives, but Meta published no figure to support the claim. The last reported Threads count was 500 million monthly users, announced June 16, 2026. Third-party estimates measure daily mobile users instead: Threads first passed X globally in the week of September 15 to 21, 2025, at 130.2 million versus 130.1 million, while X still leads on web and among U.S. mobile users. X's advertising revenue was $1.248 billion for the first nine months of 2026, below $1.323 billion a year earlier, and Meta's financials show no benefit from the user lead yet.
- Famous Billionaire Calls AI a Bubble — But That Is Not What His Money Says
Citadel founder Ken Griffin told Bloomberg at Citadel's Future of Global Markets conference that there are almost certainly bubbles within the current AI boom. He compared GPUs to airline seats, warning that once capacity exceeds demand prices may collapse, similar to the fiber-optic bust around 2000. Yet Citadel's amended 13F for Q2 2026 showed about $8.6 billion in five AI-linked companies, with Amazon its second-largest holding; its Amazon and Microsoft share counts rose 34% and 43%, while Nvidia shares fell about 37%. The filing also disclosed options on Nvidia and Micron that may hedge risk, and it is only a snapshot as of June 30.
- Procter & Gamble Jumps 6% as Earnings Beat Draws Defensive Buyers; Johnson & Johnson Rises 3%, Coca-Cola Ticks Up
Procter & Gamble shares rose 6% to $166.19 in morning trading after its Q1 FY2027 results beat expectations, with core EPS of $2 versus the $1.89 consensus and net sales of $23.28 billion against $22.82 billion expected. CFO Andre Schulten said the U.S. consumer is “remarkably resilient,” though lower-income shoppers are more cautious. The company kept its full-year outlook of 1% to 3% organic sales growth and core EPS of $6.89 to $7.11. Core gross margin fell 150 basis points year over year, and the company expects $1.4 billion in after-tax commodity cost pressure this fiscal year. Johnson & Johnson rose 3% and Coca-Cola 2% as defensive stocks drew buyers, while the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust fell 1%.
- Cathie Wood Goes Bargain Hunting: 3 Stocks She Just Bought
Ark Invest, which publishes Cathie Wood's ETF trades daily, added to existing positions in Netflix (NFLX), Oklo (OKLO) and Intuitive Surgical (ISRG) on Wednesday, and all three are down between 7% and 80% over the past year. Netflix hit a two-year low after guiding to an 11.5% revenue increase for the final quarter, its weakest showing in more than three years, though it has more than 300 million members and trades at 17 times next year's estimated earnings. Oklo has surrendered 86% of its value from its all-time high, with a $5.2 billion market cap and revenue not expected to top $10 million next year. Intuitive Surgical is down 7% over the past year and nearly a quarter in 2026, as analysts see revenue growth slowing to 13% next quarter.
- Vistra Is Up 11% in a Month. Is Washington’s $4.2 Billion Nuclear Loan Really That Good?
Vistra (VST) shares are up 11% over the past month after a conditional commitment of up to $4.2 billion from the Energy Department for 433 MW of uprates at Beaver Valley, Davis-Besse and Perry, and a 20-year Constellation Energy deal with Google lifted power producers. The article sees the loan as a good deal for those three plants, but it comes with conditions and does nothing about the soft Texas power prices weighing on the 2027 outlook. Analysts expect normalized EPS to more than double from $4.76 in 2025 to $10.37 in 2027, yet the stock trades at about 15x forward earnings, in line with its five-year average. Vistra updates its 2027 guidance with third-quarter results on Nov. 6, and the author argues the stock is worth owning into that report. However, if the 2027 adjusted EBITDA midpoint falls well short of about $8.1 billion and management blames Texas prices, the loan will not help much.
