- Here the Playbook for Investors As New Fears Rattle the AI Trade
AI stocks had a brutal start to October: the Roundhill Neocloud ETF (NCLD) fell 31%, the iShares Semiconductor ETF (SOXX) dropped 13%, and the Defiance AI and Power Infrastructure ETF (AIPO) lost 14%. Rising borrowing costs, investor concern over neocloud leverage, and hot inflation readings that pushed bond yields near two-decade highs drove the sell-off. Baird's Ross Mayfield is overweighting healthcare, financials and energy as hedges, while still adding to hyperscalers and power infrastructure. Travis Prentice of Infomed Momentum favors agentic AI cybersecurity names like CrowdStrike, Okta and Palo Alto Networks, plus AI adopters such as MetLife and Visa. AllianceBernstein's James Russo is pivoting to quality stocks that don't rely on external borrowing, including larger hyperscalers, and chipmakers with durable competitive advantages.
- Can the Permanent Portfolio strategy protect your wealth?
Harry Browne's Permanent Portfolio, developed in the 1980s, splits holdings equally among stocks, long-dated bonds, gold and cash, rebalanced annually to aim for returns in all market conditions. A JustETF back-test using European ETFs from January 2007 to June 2026 shows a cumulative return of 234%, versus 434% for a 100% equity portfolio and 279% for a portfolio of 60% stocks and 40% bonds, but with volatility of just 6.3% compared with 8.6% and 13.5%. Its drawdown barely touched 5% in 2008, when equity markets lost nearly 50%, while its worst drawdown in two decades, just over 10%, came in 2022 as inflation surged and long bonds sold off. A UK version returned a compound annual growth rate of 5.8%, with long gilts down about 48% offset by a 132% rise in gold, and a weighted average cost of 0.17%.
- This Unstoppable Vanguard ETF Could Turn $500 Per Month Into $1 Million Over the Long Term
The Vanguard S&P 500 Growth ETF (VOOG) tracks an index of 151 high-growth stocks from the S&P 500, with 53% of its assets in information technology and four of its top five holdings in that sector. The article says Nvidia, Microsoft, Apple, Alphabet and Broadcom have posted a median return of 300% since the start of 2023, while Advanced Micro Devices and Micron rose 800% and 1,780%. The ETF has delivered a compound annual return of 16.9% since 2010, versus 14.1% for the S&P 500, and 28.4% a year over the last three years. The author estimates that at a 14.1% annual return, $500 invested monthly could reach $1 million in just under 23 years, and believes the ETF will keep beating the S&P 500 over the long term.
- What If You’d Bought Vanguard’s Growth ETF at the Worst Possible Moment?
A $10,000 investment in VUG on Oct 31, 2007, which fell 51% at its low, is now worth $100,122, or about 13% a year, versus $71,189 in SPY. The Nov 19, 2021 peak fell 36% and took 795 days to recover; it is now worth $17,350 against $17,742 in SPY, the only tested entry point where VUG still trails the S&P 500. A 23% drop in early 2025 during the tariff sell-off recovered in 125 days, leaving the holding roughly even with SPY at $12,959 versus $12,944. The predecessor Vanguard Growth Index Fund Investor Shares, bought at the Mar 27, 2000 peak, took about 12.5 years to break even after a 56% decline. The article says VUG best suits investors with at least a decade ahead, since its top holdings NVIDIA, Apple and Microsoft make up 36% of the fund.
- Treasury Yields Hit a 24-Year High This Month. Is Vanguard's High-Dividend ETF Still Worth Buying?
The 10-year Treasury yield closed at 5.31% on Oct. 5, its highest close since spring 2002, and was about 5.1% when the article was written. The author compares it with the Vanguard High Dividend Yield ETF (VYM), which trades around $160 and had an SEC yield of 2.35% for the period ending Sept. 30. Unlike the Treasury's fixed interest, the fund's payout can shrink when its holdings cut dividends, as it did by around 24% from 2008 to 2010. However, the payout grew about 5% a year from 2015 to 2025, rose about 7% so far in 2026, and the fund returned around 11% a year on average over the decade ended Sept. 30. The author concludes the fund suits investors who reinvest dividends for growing income, not those who need the highest income now.
- 5 No-Brainer ETFs Worth Loading Up On for Long-Term Investors
The article recommends five ETFs for long-term investors, noting that the S&P 500 returned an average of 15.7% a year over the past decade and about 11.2% over 20 years, a period that began just before the financial crisis, which caused a drawdown of nearly 60%. The picks are VTI, covering the entire U.S. stock market with roughly 3,500 stocks; XMHQ, focused on higher-quality U.S. mid caps with high return on equity and lower leverage; and IJR, which tracks small caps that pass a profitability screen. It also cites VXUS, with roughly 8,800 non-U.S. stocks at a 0.05% expense ratio, and VIG, which holds large U.S. companies with at least 10 consecutive years of dividend growth.

- Duong Son Ba Arrested, Hai Phong Thermal Power Loses Lawsuit and Must Pay VND 115 Billion to Partner
Hai Phong Thermal Power (HND) disclosed an appellate ruling in a coal supply dispute with Dan Ka Mineral, under which the court accepted the plaintiff's appeal and ordered the company to pay nearly VND 115 billion, including a coal price difference of over VND 80.15 billion and interest of over VND 34.65 billion. The dispute stems from a 2021 contract, with disagreement over price adjustments after global coal prices rose sharply in 2022. Duong Son Ba, the company's general director, was arrested on 21 May 2026 over alleged forgery of documents of an agency or organisation, and the board dismissed him from the post on 13 October, with no successor yet announced. In the first half of 2026, the company reported net revenue of nearly VND 6,081 billion, up 8%, and after-tax profit of over VND 508 billion, up nearly 25%.
- Iran threatens to use the 'father of all missiles' to strike adversaries' energy facilities
Major General Mohammad Reza Naqdi, senior adviser to the IRGC commander, said at a rally in Sari on October 18 that Iran has prepared the most advanced missiles and will respond to any aggression. He warned that energy infrastructure and investments belonging to powers Tehran deems aggressive in the region could fall within Iranian missile range. His remarks answered US President Donald Trump's threat to use the GBU-43/B MOAB, often called the 'mother of all bombs' and weighing about 14 tons, against Iran's energy infrastructure and nuclear sites. Naqdi said Iran also possesses these bombs, having seized some that failed to detonate in the 12-day war, and called Trump's impatience a 'public admission of defeat'.
- Strategy on verge of golden cross, just weeks after bitcoin flashed same bullish signal
Strategy (MSTR) is about to form a golden cross, when its 50-day average rises above its 200-day average, possibly as early as Monday, just weeks after bitcoin showed the same bullish signal. The company holds $69.81 billion in bitcoin, and its stock has had two earlier golden crosses followed by big rallies: from $15.57 in September 2020 to $127.29 by February 2021, a 717% gain, and from $25.29 on March 2, 2023 to a peak of $473.83 in November 2024, up 1,774%. The article stresses the signal is unreliable, though: since 1999 MSTR has had 19 golden crosses, and only 10 were followed by a higher price 12 months later, a 50% hit rate, with a median 12-month return of just 3.3%. The two worst cases, in 2001 and 2007, were followed by a 61% loss.
- Director of the HCMC Institute of Economics, Natural Resources and Environment: Four major corporations have raised plans to invest in Vietnam, but pulled back when asked about power capacity
At a seminar co-organized by Tien Phong newspaper and the HCMC Department of Construction on October 16, TS. Phạm Viết Thuận said the city should treat infrastructure as an integrated system rather than focusing only on transport. He argued that 11 main and 13 secondary infrastructure categories, including power, water drainage, industrial zones and logistics, need to be synchronized for the city to develop its economy. To address flooding, he proposed surveying 159 flood-prone points and building ecological lakes at major spots. He also noted that four large corporations had considered investing in Vietnam but withdrew when asked about grid power capacity. Department director Trần Quang Lâm said capital mobilization and land policy need further study, while traffic congestion, flooding and pollution remain the city’s top priorities.
- Live updates: Bitcoin tags $83,000 and slips back as chip stocks lead a rebound
Bitcoin climbed from an overnight low near $80,700 to just above $83,000 early Monday, then slipped back to about $82,400 as sellers stepped in, and was up 0.3% over 24 hours. The bounce followed tech stocks, with Nasdaq 100 futures up 1.1%, snapping a weeklong 5.5% selloff, and an ETF tracking chipmakers jumping 3%. WTI crude recovered to $98.55 after touching $96.72, as the U.S. warned citizens across 12 Middle East locations of possible flight cancellations and airspace closures, raising fears of fresh strikes on Iran and disruption at the Strait of Hormuz. In Europe, the Stoxx 600 fell 0.8% after protests in France. Bitcoin would need to move through $84,000, its ceiling on October 13 and 14, to signal that the tech rebound is lifting it too.
- Baystreet . ca - When Might October Nasdaq Correction End ?
The Nasdaq Composite (QQQ ETF) is 6.96% below its 52-week high after falling 5.52% last week, close to the 10% threshold for a technical correction. The article says high oil prices, sustained by Iran's control of traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, keep September CPI and PPI rising, and that Iran wants higher oil prices to hurt the Republican Party before the midterm elections, so the correction in beaten-down stocks may continue. CoreWeave (CRWV) lost 25.21% last week, closing just 3% above its yearly low, while bears holding a 17% short float bet its $50 billion debt is unsustainable. Nebius (NBIS) fell 25% and Twilio (TWLO) dropped 15.6%, while Autodesk (ADSK), Salesforce (CRM) and Adobe (ADBE) drew buying. The article suggests volatility may ease after the midterms.
