- The S&P 500 Is Approaching a Valuation Not Seen Since the Peak of the Dot-Com Bubble, and History Suggests a Crash Could Follow
The S&P 500 has more than doubled from its 2022 bear-market low, but its Shiller CAPE ratio hit 41, close to the all-time high of 44.2 at the dot-com peak. The U.S.-Iran conflict has closed the Strait of Hormuz, pushing WTI crude above $103 per barrel, and September CPI inflation rose to 3.7%, prompting the Fed to raise rates by 25 basis points. Higher rates also threaten AI infrastructure, with CoreWeave stock down more than 70% from its peak, Firmus canceling its IPO, and the iShares Semiconductor ETF down 27%. The author thinks further downside is ahead, though the S&P 500 was only 2.5% below its peak and volatility is normal, with a 10.7% compound annual return since 1957. Buying stocks during the scariest moments has been a winning strategy over seven decades.
- Dow Jones, Nasdaq, S&P 500 weekly preview: Markets brace for pivotal earnings week
The Dow fell 652.82 points, or 1.23%, to 52,215.16 on Friday as Thursday's tech selloff spread, while the S&P 500 slipped 0.52% to 7,623.68 and the Nasdaq Composite fell 0.21% to 25,955.34. US oil climbed above $100 a barrel on fears of renewed US-Iran conflict. The 10-year Treasury yield rose to around 4.999% after dipping below 5% Thursday for the first time in a month. For the week, the S&P 500 fell 0.5%, the Nasdaq lost 0.7%, and the Dow rose 0.4%. Investors await earnings from major AI players and the Fed meeting, with markets seeing roughly an 80% chance of a hike at the December meeting; RBC keeps its 12-month S&P 500 target of 8,150 while watching for a 5-10% pullback.
- Stock market today: Dow, S&P 500, Nasdaq futures rise ahead of busy week of earnings, Fed rate decision
US stock futures rose Monday morning, with Dow futures up 0.4%, S&P 500 futures up 0.3% and Nasdaq-100 futures up 0.3%, after the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite each logged a second straight weekly loss. Brent crude fell below $110 a barrel after hitting its highest level since April amid escalating Middle East tensions, with Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia keeping supply concerns in focus. The Federal Reserve is widely expected to hold rates steady at its meeting this week, though after hotter-than-expected inflation data, many experts expect Chair Kevin Warsh to lean toward a 'hawkish pause.' The ECB, Bank of Canada and Bank of Japan also hold policy meetings this week.
- US markets weighed down by extended sell - off in the tech sector
U.S. stocks fell Friday as a broad tech selloff pushed the S&P 500 down 1.1% to 7,659.44 and the Nasdaq down 2.1% to 26,140.03, capping the market's worst week since late June. Chip stocks led the declines, with Micron down 5.6%, AMD down 6%, Broadcom down 4.5% and Intel down 5.8%, as investors worry AI spending may slow when tech companies rely heavily on debt and bond yields are at multi-year highs. The 10-year Treasury yield eased to 5.09% after topping 5.30% earlier this month, its highest level since 2002, while traders now see a 74.3% chance of a Fed rate hike at the December meeting, up from 50.2% a month ago. Brent crude rose 3.7% to $109.86 per barrel amid supply pressure from the Iran war, and U.S. gasoline averaged $4.33 a gallon, versus $3.06 a year earlier.
- The Stock Market Is Facing 3 Huge Problems Right Now, and History Is Clear About What's Coming
The article outlines three risks for the stock market four years into the current bull run. Long-term bond yields have hit multi-decade highs, with the 10-year and 30-year Treasury yields at their highest since 2002, making borrowing more expensive. Oil prices have surged on the war in Iran, with Brent near $106 a barrel, up more than 55% this year, keeping inflation above the Fed's 2% target and giving an 88% probability of another rate hike by year-end per CME FedWatch. The S&P 500 is also heavily concentrated, with its 10 largest companies making up about 40% of its value, and its Shiller CAPE ratio above 40 is near its dot-com-era record of 44 and far above its long-term average of 17. Still, the S&P 500 has produced positive total returns over every rolling 20-year period since 1919, and it is up more than 766% since early 2000.
- Stock Market: Will S&P 500 Open Up or Down Today?
U.S. stock futures were mixed early Tuesday, with Nasdaq 100 futures down 0.81% and S&P 500 futures down 0.23%, while Dow futures rose 0.23%. A Polymarket contract on whether the S&P 500 opens higher on October 13 gave only a 37% chance, leaning bearish. Traders are weighing tech weakness against the start of third-quarter bank earnings, led by JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, Wells Fargo and Citigroup. Oil fell after President Trump announced an 'energy ceasefire' between Ukraine and Russia and a deal to buy Russian diesel, with Brent down 1.11% to $105.47 and WTI down 1.18% to $92.63 a barrel. Trade Nation's David Morrison said the market remains vulnerable to tech performance ahead of Wednesday's U.S. CPI update, and noted an 84% chance of another Fed rate hike before year-end.

- Strategy Shareholders Approve Daily Dividends on Preferred Stock, With 99.3% in Favor
Strategy shareholders approved an amendment letting its four preferred stocks, STRF, STRC, STRK and STRD, accrue dividends every calendar day, including weekends and holidays, with 99.3% of votes cast in favor according to preliminary results. STRC will move first, with its first daily record date on November 1 and payment on November 2, while the other three switch over with a first record date on January 1 and payment on January 4, subject to filing amended terms for each stock. Record dates falling on non-trading days will be treated as the previous business day, so dividends are effectively grouped and paid on the next business day; for STRC, record dates rise from 24 a year to 365. STRC traded at $99.86 against its $100 par value, and last week Strategy paused Bitcoin purchases for the first time since mid-September to spend $204.9 million buying back STRC. Separately, Strategy faces possible removal from MSCI's widely tracked equity indexes, after MSCI finalized a rule treating companies whose balance sheets are dominated by a single asset as ineligible and will publish affected companies on November 11.
- Finance Minister: “Can Vietnam grow without FDI? The answer is simple: No way!”
At the Group 5 session on the draft amended Investment Law on 24/10, Finance Minister Ngô Văn Tuấn said Vietnam cannot reach double-digit growth without FDI. FDI disbursement reached about USD 21 billion in the first nine months of 2026, and the full-year target is at least USD 30 billion. Reaching double-digit growth would require total social investment of about 40% of GDP and an ICOR falling from 6.4 to 4.5–4.8, with 2026–2030 capital needs expected to be 2.67 times those of 2021–2025. He said incentives should shift toward high technology, R&D, and linkages between FDI firms and domestic businesses, as the global minimum tax reduces the effect of traditional tax incentives. As of August 2026, about 47,796 FDI projects were operating, with registered capital of roughly USD 561.6 billion.
- Untold story behind the rejected visits in 1999 and the SSC's passport to integration
Chairman Lê Văn Châu, the first head of the State Securities Commission (SSC), insisted on opening the market in 2000 despite calls to delay. With no companies ready to list, SSC staff began visiting firms in 1999, but many feared public disclosure, and the initial list of 14 companies dwindled to REE and SAM. The first trading session took place on 28/7/2000 at 45–47 Bến Chương Dương, with two stocks, trading three times a week, one call auction per day and a 2% price band, and the trading system was supported by Thailand. Châu also backed private sector participation from the start, which paved the way for Sài Gòn Securities Joint Stock Company (SSI), established on 30/12/1999. The article argues this was only the beginning, as the market needed more financial intermediaries and listed companies to grow.
- Surprising Profits at Bách Hóa Xanh in Q3
According to MWG's consolidated financial statements for Q3 2026, the Bách Hóa Xanh chain remained profitable in the quarter, so the tax losses carried forward it used to offset taxable income rose by about 563 billion VND to nearly 1,469 billion VND as of September 30, 2026. The article stresses that these tax losses are a measure for determining tax liabilities and are not equivalent to after-tax profit; as of end-September, the company still had about 3,504 billion VND in unconverted tax losses. For the first nine months, Bách Hóa Xanh posted revenue of about 45,900 billion VND, up nearly 34% year on year, equal to roughly 83% of its 2026 target of 55,500 billion VND, with growth driven mainly by fresh food and FMCG. The chain has 4,267 stores nationwide, and stores opened in 2026 recorded positive operating profit at store level after depreciation and logistics costs. At group level, MWG reported Q3 after-tax profit of 3,521 billion VND, up 97%, and nine-month after-tax profit of 9,634 billion VND, already exceeding its full-year profit target.

- Why Chefs' Warehouse Stock Popped Then Dropped
Chefs' Warehouse (CHEF) fell 12% at the open despite reporting a third-quarter earnings beat, then briefly rose near 5% before giving back most of those gains. Adjusted earnings were $0.66 per share versus analysts' $0.58 estimate, and sales rose 11% year over year to $1.14 billion. Free cash flow for the year so far reached $115.7 million, 44% above reported net income and more than five times the year-earlier figure. CEO Christopher Pappas said momentum continued after the quarter, and management raised full-year guidance, with sales approaching $4.6 billion and full-year earnings implied at $2.55 per share, up 34%. The article suggests current profit may not fully justify a 43 price-to-earnings ratio, though the news is good for shareholders.
