VinaCapital investor group cuts Kido stake below 6%

VinaCapital's fund management company reported that Liva Holdings Limited sold 1.9 million KDC shares in the October 22, 2026 session, cutting its stake from 5.16% to 4.47% of Kido's charter capital. Including Vina QSR Limited, which holds over 2.6 million shares (0.95%), the group's combined stake fell from 6.11% to 5.42%. Separately, Kido completed two share transfers in Thực phẩm Đông lạnh Kido (now Nuti KD) and, as of September 18, 2026, held only 14.7% of its charter capital, so Nuti KD is no longer an associate of KDC. Shareholders also approved canceling contracts that transferred 34 trademarks, including Merino and Celano, and Kido will complete procedures to restore ownership of these trademarks to Thực phẩm Đông lạnh Kido.

  • Blackstone's Profits Fell, but Its Stock Rose 4%. Here's What Dividend Investors See

    Blackstone reported lower profit as higher rates, inflation and a choppy market slowed dealmaking and investment exits, yet its shares rose 4.04% in early trading. The article explains that asset managers such as Blackstone, Franklin Templeton and Invesco pay dividends from fees on assets under management, so market rallies can lift payouts. Blackstone has no fixed dividend and pays about 85% of distributable earnings each quarter; its latest $1.29 payment reflects a payout of about 84.9% of distributable earnings of $1.52 per share, or about 117.5% of trailing GAAP earnings. With a 4.88% yield and the stock down 23.77% this year, the article warns that income depends on realizations and the $1.29 dividend could be followed by a smaller one.

  • BSR estimates record 9-month profit, reveals plan to divest state capital

    BSR estimates 9-month revenue of VND164,500 billion, up 80% and 7% above its full-year plan; profit attributable to parent shareholders reached VND22,900 billion, 10.6 times the same period last year, driven by high crack spreads. In Q3 alone, revenue was VND59,900 billion, up 70%, and profit was VND6,900 billion, down 9% from the previous quarter but 7.7 times the year-earlier level. Management forecasts 2027 crack spreads of US$18-27 per barrel, lower than 2026 as shipping through the Strait of Hormuz gradually stabilises. For divestment, BSR aims to complete the state stake sale before 11 March 2027, with at least 2.13% of shares to be sold via public auction; Vietcap says progress is consistent with completion in the first half of 2027.

  • An AI label alone no longer wins lenders, JPMorgan says

    JPMorgan says an AI label alone no longer secures financing, as lenders increasingly require companies to show they can fund investment, service debt and generate cash flow. Credit default swap (CDS) trading tied to major AI companies surged in September, with weekly trading averaging more than $9 billion according to Morgan Stanley, and the five-year CDS of one financing-dependent AI infrastructure company reached 1,100 basis points, implying a near or above 50% probability of default over five years. In a report published Oct. 23, J.P. Morgan Private Bank's Justin Biemann said the stress is concentrated in business models that need debt markets to stay open, though a deeper AI downturn could spill into other risk assets, including Bitcoin. He pointed to Lehman Brothers, whose CDS topped 1,400 basis points before its 2008 bankruptcy as an early warning, while large AI leaders with strong cash flow pay 50 to 120 basis points.

  • Unframe Removes Another Barrier Between AI Capabilities and Adoption

    Unframe, an applied AI lab, announced its availability on the AWS, Google Cloud and Microsoft marketplaces. Enterprises can buy directly through their existing cloud accounts, applying committed cloud spend toward Unframe and following established approval workflows. Private offers let Unframe set tailored pricing, contract terms and usage parameters for individual customers. Global VP of Revenue Jacquelyn Goldberg said the move removes another barrier between identifying high-value AI use cases and putting them into production.
