SSI Research forecasts the VN-Index could reach 1,940 points in 2027 under its base scenario, based on 10.1% growth in market-wide earnings, a sharp slowdown from the roughly 30% estimated for 2026. The report warns of possible corrections before a recovery in late 2026 and early 2027, with choppy trading likely in the first half of 2027 as capital costs stay high. The 2027 P/E is projected at 10.7 times, or 8.3 times excluding VIC, but the report stresses that low valuations do not guarantee share gains. An expected FTSE-linked inflow of about USD 2.7 billion could be disbursed in four tranches from September 2026 to September 2027. Building materials and industrial property are viewed favourably, while banks are rated neutral and selective.

- Too Broken For Frontier : Indonesian Markets Suffer Worst Rout Since 1998 As MSCI Threatens The "Argentina Treatment"
MSCI warned that Indonesia may face a two-step downgrade, moving straight from Emerging Market to 'Standalone' status and skipping Frontier, which deepened the selloff in Jakarta. The Jakarta Composite Index fell 11.6% on Friday, its biggest one-day drop since January 1998, then closed down a further 3.6% on Monday. Since its January 20 peak, the index has lost about 45%, and according to Reuters, about $350 billion in market value has been wiped out since January. MSCI cited opaque shareholding structures, suspected coordinated trading and weak enforcement; Jakarta raised the minimum free float to 15% from 7.5%, but MSCI concluded the problems were too deep for Frontier status. MSCI will announce its decision by June 30, 2027, while OJK has fined entities 2.1 trillion rupiah ($116 million) linked to manipulation in three stocks.

- Indonesian exchange seeks to calm market after record 2-day rout
Indonesian stocks suffered their steepest two-day sell-off on record after MSCI said on Friday (Oct 16) it was considering moving Indonesia from “emerging market” to “standalone” status. The benchmark index fell 11.6% on Friday and 3.6% on Monday, hitting a six-year low, while the rupiah weakened to 18,030 per US dollar and the 10-year yield rose to 7.4%. The exchange said it remained committed to capital market reforms, excluded stocks with highly concentrated ownership from the Jakarta Composite Index, and cut the daily down limit to 7% from 15%. Goldman Sachs estimated a full MSCI removal could trigger US$5.6 billion in passive outflows, and foreign investors have net sold US$4.98 billion of Indonesian stocks so far this year.
- China Q3 Growth Picks Up to 4.5% as AI-Driven Exports Surge
China's economy grew 4.5% in the third quarter, rebounding from a three-year low and sitting at the lower edge of the government's 4.5–5% annual target. AI-related demand lifted exports, with high-tech goods sales up 14.3% and battery and industrial robot production up more than 29%. The trade surplus is on track to exceed last year's record $1.2 trillion. However, property investment fell by over 20% in the first nine months. Oxford Economics' Sheana Yue said weak investment and subdued domestic spending still weigh on growth, while Moody's Analytics' Dave Chia noted that the impact of support measures introduced in September has yet to be fully realised.

- Bitcoin ETFs just saw their biggest day in a month thanks entirely to BlackRock
U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs took in $526.6 million on Monday, the largest daily net inflow in nearly a month, driven entirely by BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT), which pulled in $665.2 million, its biggest daily inflow since Oct. 7 last year, according to SoSoValue data. Fidelity's FBTC lost $83.6 million and Grayscale's GBTC shed $54.9 million, while the remaining funds recorded no net flows. The inflow more than erased last week's $228.5 million of withdrawals, but funds remain about $90.5 million in net outflows for October, according to CoinDesk calculations. Ether funds moved the opposite way, losing $103.3 million in their fourth consecutive session of outflows, with BlackRock's ETHA accounting for $95.4 million of that.
- A Big4 bank cut deposit rates in the morning, then raised them again in the afternoon
VietinBank cut its deposit rates for terms of 6 months and longer on the morning of Oct. 20, then restored them to pre-adjustment levels by the afternoon. Its afternoon rate board showed 3.5% per year for 6 to under 12 months, 5.9% for 12 to under 24 months and 6% for 24 months and longer, versus 3%, 5.4% and 5.5% in the morning. Rates for terms under 6 months stayed unchanged, including 2.1% for 1 to under 3 months and 2.4% for 3 to under 6 months. The move came as banks followed the State Bank of Vietnam's guidance to cut deposit rates by at least 0.5 percentage points for terms of 6 months and longer, and Vietcombank and Agribank were among those reducing rates.
- IVV vs. SPY: Which S&P 500 ETF Is the Better Buy for Long-Term Investors?
The article compares two ETFs that track the S&P 500, iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV) and State Street SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY), which have nearly identical holdings. The main difference is the expense ratio: IVV charges 0.03% a year, one-third of SPY's 0.09%, and its distribution yield is about 1.1% versus 1% for SPY. SPY's high liquidity remains valuable for active traders. The article concludes that IVV is the better choice for long-term investors, since lower costs can compound over time.
- Warren Buffett Is Issuing a Stark Warning About the Stock Market. Here's What History Says Comes Next.
Warren Buffett has warned that investors are taking on too much risk, likening the market to 'a church with a casino attached' and saying people have never been in a more gambling mood. The article points to the S&P 500 Shiller CAPE Ratio, which has stayed above 40 since May of this year; historically, the only other time it held above that level for months was during the dot-com bubble, when it peaked around 44 before the bear market began in March 2000. The article notes that 40 is not an automatic trigger for a downturn, and no metric can predict timing. It suggests investors focus on quality stocks with solid fundamentals and be ready to hold them for at least a few years.
- Early Uber Investor Jason Calacanis Predicts Waymo Could Buy Lucid Or Rivian — Calls Its Chinese-Car Optics ‘Really Bad’
Early Uber investor Jason Calacanis predicts Waymo will buy Lucid Group (LCID) or Rivian Automotive (RIVN), arguing that its reliance on Chinese-made Zeekr vehicles creates cost and reputational problems. He says the arrangement is technically not illegal today, but Waymo would need to pay a tariff of over 100%, and it has drawn national-security concerns on Capitol Hill. According to Semafor, Waymo aims to grow its fleet from about 4,000 vehicles to 8,000 by the end of 2026 and 20,000 by the end of 2027, after closing a $5 billion term loan and a $16 billion equity raise this year. Uber has committed to buying at least 35,000 Lucid vehicles, while its Rivian deal starts with 10,000 autonomous R2 SUVs, with rides expected to begin in 2028. Calacanis, who recently bought small stakes in Lucid, Rivian, WeRide (WRD) and Pony.ai (PONY), expects consolidation in the autonomous-driving sector within 24 months.
- Prediction: Oct. 21 Will Be a Huge Day for the Stock Market
The article predicts October 21 could be a pivotal day for the stock market, as Meta Platforms (META) becomes the first of the "Magnificent Seven" tech giants to report third-quarter earnings after the close. In its latest quarter, Meta's total revenue rose 28% to $60 billion, with ad revenue at $59 billion. Investors will be watching whether its capital spending, now about 35% of revenue, is translating into growth. Meta's report could hint at the earnings outlook for other tech giants and set the direction for the S&P 500 in the coming days, with the first trading session after the report on Thursday.
