Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Van Thang received Citigroup CEO Ernesto Torres Cantú at Government headquarters on the afternoon of October 16. The Deputy PM said the government targets average GDP growth of 10% or more per year for 2026–2030, and FDI disbursed in the first nine months exceeded US$21 billion, up 76.4% year on year. He asked Citibank to help build international financial centres in Ho Chi Minh City and Da Nang and to convey Vietnam's goodwill to the U.S. government on quickly finalising a reciprocal trade agreement.

- Synchronized infrastructure paves the way for double-digit growth in Ho Chi Minh City
At a seminar organized by the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Construction and Tien Phong newspaper, experts said that expanding the city's boundaries after merging with Bình Dương and Bà Rịa - Vũng Tàu creates a large development space, covering about 6,772 km² with roughly 13.5 million people. In 2024, the merged area contributed about 24% of national GDP and attracted about $6.7 billion in FDI. However, bottlenecks in institutions, resource mobilization, regional connectivity and coordination between transport planning and housing remain. The city plans to make metro the main axis of public transport, with at least 200 km by 2030 (a higher target of about 255 km) and over 500 km by 2035.
- Russia seizes 5 more European companies with combined revenue of nearly $600 million
Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a decree ordering the compulsory seizure of assets belonging to five Western companies: Tarkett (France), Kappa Rus, Ontex RU, Eviosys Packaging Kuban and Menshen Packaging CIS. The assets have been placed under temporary management by Centre Capital, and all five companies continue operating in Russia, with combined annual revenue above 50 billion rubles (593.8 million USD). This follows a similar series of moves in September, when assets of Nestlé, Metro, Auchan and Leroy Merlin were placed under temporary management. Western governments call the seizures illegal expropriation; affected companies could seek compensation through international arbitration under bilateral investment treaties, but enforcing a ruling against the Kremlin is nearly impossible.

- When Interest Rates Move, These 7 Income Stocks React Very Differently
The 10-year Treasury yield is now over 5%, near its highest level in a quarter century, up from about 4% before the war with Iran began. Mortgage REITs AGNC (yield near 17%) and Annaly (over 16%) are among the most rate-sensitive because they borrow short-term to fund long-term investments, and both shares have fallen sharply. Coca-Cola (about 2.3%) is far less sensitive, with mostly long-term fixed-rate debt and pricing power, and its shares have risen more than 30% this year. Energy Transfer (about 6.7%) and Enterprise Products Partners (about 6.1%) have mixed sensitivity, partly offset by higher oil and gas prices. Realty Income (5.9%) and VICI Properties (about 7.9%) are less rate-sensitive than mortgage REITs, and Realty Income mitigates its impact through private capital partnerships.
- Why Klaviyo Stock Rallied Today
Klaviyo (KVYO) shares jumped Tuesday morning, rising as much as 11.8% in early trading and 11.6% at 1:13 p.m. ET. The rally followed Salesforce's agreement to acquire rival Braze (BRZE) for $47.50 per share in cash, a deal valuing Braze at $5.66 billion and representing a 58% premium to Monday's close. The article argues investors see the premium as validation of Klaviyo's approach, even though Braze targets mobile apps while Klaviyo serves e-commerce direct-to-consumer marketing. Under Salesforce, Braze may shift toward enterprise customers, reducing overlap and possibly making Klaviyo a takeover target, and the article notes Klaviyo trades at 23 times forward earnings.
- Not Micron. Not Sandisk. This Storage Stock Is Riding the Same AI Infrastructure Wave.
The article argues that Western Digital (WDC), which makes high-capacity hard disk drives for cloud computing companies, is an important but less-noticed part of AI infrastructure alongside Micron and Sandisk. A May customer survey found 87% of respondents prioritized expanding storage capacity and lowering total ownership costs, and 70% of those who knew their storage mix said hard drives made up more than half of their capacity. Western Digital has a roadmap for drives above 100 terabytes, and a 40-terabyte drive is undergoing customer qualification. For fiscal Q4, revenue was $3.75 billion, up 44% year over year; GAAP net income of $3.19 billion included a $2.05 billion gain tied to Sandisk, while adjusted net income was $1.38 billion, up 130%. The stock is up 105% so far this year.
- Profile of a Port Tycoon Newly Appearing at Eximbank: Invests Over VND 700 Billion in GEX and VIX Shares, Borrows VND 2,800 Billion from Eximbank, Acquires Real Estate Firm with Many Projects Partnering with GELEX
Viconship (VSC) appears for the first time on the list of shareholders holding at least 1% of Eximbank (EIB), with over 18.7 million shares, or 1.01%. As of June 30, 2026, the company held GEX and VIX shares with a cost of nearly 716 billion VND and a fair value of about 790 billion VND, while its Q2 report showed no EIB shares. Viconship also owed Eximbank roughly 2,856 billion VND in long-term loans, with initial interest rates of 7–10% per year, and owed VIX 322 billion VND in short-term borrowings. Its board approved a deposit agreement to acquire 100% of the capital of Viconship Industrial Infrastructure and Real Estate Co., Ltd (BDSV) for no more than 1,100 billion VND, and BDSV had previously co-invested with the GELEX ecosystem in infrastructure companies.
- Amid the wave of rate cuts, how are banks attracting deposits?
At the State Bank of Vietnam's request, Governor Pham Duc An met 46 commercial banks on Oct. 19 and asked them to cut deposit rates by at least 0.5% per year for terms of 6 months or longer. As of the afternoon of Oct. 20, 16 banks had announced cuts, mostly for terms of 6 months and above, typically 0.5% per year and up to 0.7%. Rates for deposits under 6 months changed little due to the 4.75% per year ceiling. Still, banks were competing hard for deposits, and one employee offered 9.6% per year for a 6-month term before the cut took effect. Listed 12-month rates at most banks have fallen below 7% per year, though how much loan rates fall depends on funding costs and other factors.
- South Korean firm debut plunge adds to investor concerns about AI spending
Shares of South Korea's Elice Group fell 32% on their debut, the worst first-day performance in South Korea for a company raising over US$100 million in an IPO, according to Dealogic. The stock closed at 60,500 won, below its 90,500-won IPO price, and its slide helped drag the benchmark KOSPI down 3.73% to its lowest close since April 7. Investors are increasingly doubting AI spending, competition and profitability, and several AI infrastructure deals have been delayed, including Firmus's IPO and SB Energy's US share sale. Elice's first-half revenue tripled to 34 billion won, and it swung to a 10 billion won operating profit from a 3.5 billion won loss a year earlier.
