- A Vietnamese stock surges 400-fold in just over a year
Shares of Da Nang Water Supply JSC (DNN) rose 13.8% to VND 43,500 after four consecutive limit-up sessions, and have gained more than 400 times in about a year and a half from the adjusted VND 100 per share level in May 2025. Trading remains thin, typically only a few hundred to a few thousand shares per session, as most charter capital is held by the Da Nang People's Committee and Da Nang Central Region Investment JSC, limiting the free float. An extraordinary general meeting expected on Oct. 30 will vote on the 2026–2031 Board of Directors and Supervisory Board and amend the charter, though the nominee list is not the official result. Business has recovered, with 2025 net revenue of VND 774.3 billion (up 20.1%) and after-tax profit of VND 234 billion (up 133.2%). The article cites the company's cash dividends of 16%–23% annually over six years, which it says have been a main driver of the rally.

- Ex-dividend calendar for Oct 26–30: One bank's 50% rights issue ratio stands out
This week, 10 companies will pay cash dividends, ranging from nearly 3.5% to 20%. MSR set Nov 2 as the last registration date for its 20% advance dividend of the 2/2026 round, with an ex-date of Oct 30 and an estimated payout of about 2,210 billion VND on Nov 6. MSR's shareholders approved an advance of 50% for this round, about 5,500 billion VND, which together with the 10% advance from round 1/2026 brings its total 2026 dividend to 60%, roughly 6,600 billion VND. Techcombank (TCB) set Oct 30, 2026 as its last registration date, with an expected ex-rights date of Oct 29, to issue 3,543,120,207 shares at a 50% ratio, so holders of 100 shares receive 50 new ones. The issue, worth over 35,431 billion VND at par value, is funded by undistributed retained earnings from the audited 2025 financial statements.
- Many Companies Again Postpone Cash Dividends; Shareholders Waiting Over 10 Years Still Haven't Received Payment
VSDC has rescheduled cash dividend payments for PHC (5%, moved from 20/10/2026 to 16/11/2026) and ITS (1%, moved from 22/10 to 11/11/2026). Notably, SD3 still has not paid its 5% cash dividend for 2015, despite a record date in October 2016; its latest postponement to 31/12/2026 is the 12th adjustment, meaning shareholders could wait over 10 years. Earlier, SJS delayed its 2016–2017 dividends totaling 20% until 31/12/2024 before paying about 228 billion VND. Bidifood (BLT) stopped paying the remaining 140.5% of its 2022 dividend after paying 30%, citing capital difficulties. The article stresses that announcing a cash dividend record date does not guarantee shareholders receive payment on time.
- Techcombank approved to raise charter capital to over VND 106,000 billion
The State Bank of Vietnam approved Techcombank's plan to raise its charter capital from about VND 70,862 billion to VND 106,593 billion, an increase of over 50%. The increase comes from a 50% stock dividend worth over VND 35,431 billion and an ESOP issuance of nearly VND 300 billion for employees. The bank says the move will strengthen its long-term capital base, support business expansion and investment in technology and data, while maintaining capital safety ratios and asset quality. The plan follows pre-tax profit of VND 18,500 billion in the first six months of 2026, up 22.5%, and operating income of VND 28,600 billion, up 17.5%. Techcombank also ranked among the 20 banks contributing the most to the state budget in 2025, with nearly VND 11,000 billion, and was named Best Bank in Vietnam 2026 by Euromoney for the 6th consecutive year.

Total 2026 dividends are expected to reach 60%, or about VND 6,600 billion. In the first half, net revenue reached VND 11,131 billion, up about 270%, and profit after tax before minority interests was VND 2,202 billion, compared with a VND 216 billion loss a year earlier, helped by a sharp rise in tungsten prices. In early October, Elmet Group (US) bought a 4.99% stake from a Masan Group subsidiary, while Masan still holds about 87.46%. MSR shares trade around VND 62,700, after hitting a record high of VND 68,000 on Oct. 8.

- Apple's $2,000 foldable iPhone Duo faces a durability test
Apple has responded to reports of lines and possible cracks appearing on the inner screen of its new foldable iPhone Duo as it folds and unfolds. Apple says the number of affected units is small and has replaced them under warranty. The hosts questioned whether the product was fully ready at launch, noting that some apps, including the App Store as of yesterday, were not yet configured to fill the unfolded screen, though this may have been patched since. They also raised doubts about the durability of a $2,000 phone that users would open and close many times a day.
- Meta Is Selling Up to $95 Billion of Stock. Its Chip Suppliers Want In
Meta plans to raise up to $95 billion through a financing program to fund its AI build-out, its first sale of new stock since 2013. About $35 billion is underwritten, including $22.5 billion of Class A common stock under forward sale agreements and about $12.5 billion of mandatory convertible preferred, while a further $60 billion is a planned at-the-market program not expected to start before the first quarter of 2027. NVIDIA, AMD and Broadcom have indicated interest in buying up to $5.0 billion of common shares, but the indications are not binding and match about 22% of the common issue. Meta shares closed down 1.88% at $630.56 while the three chipmakers rose, and critics call the arrangement circular because the suppliers are funding a customer that then orders from them. Meta generated $97 billion of operating cash flow in the first three quarters but expects $135 billion to $145 billion of 2026 capital spending and recorded negative third-quarter free cash flow of $2.12 billion.
- Ripple strikes deal with Robinhood to expand its RLSUD digital dollar
Ripple has struck a deal with Robinhood to expand use of its RLUSD stablecoin, settling institutional trades in RLUSD, automating Robinhood's treasury operations and widening access to digital asset trading and financing through Ripple Prime and Bitstamp, the exchange Robinhood acquired last year. Robinhood Crypto's general manager said utility is what moves stablecoins forward, while Ripple President Monica Long said stablecoins have become critical financial infrastructure. Circle, a Ripple competitor, is pursuing a similar model with the Circle Payments Network launched earlier this year. RLUSD's market cap has grown above $2.5 billion, while Tether's USDT and Circle's USDC still dominate a stablecoin market exceeding $300 billion. RLUSD will also be listed on Robinhood's trading platform.
- Microsoft Reports October 28 With Hyperscalers Down a Quarter Since May. Cash Flow Is the Test
Microsoft reports fiscal first-quarter results on October 28 as hyperscaler stocks have fallen roughly a quarter since early May on worries about how AI spending will be financed. In fiscal 2026 its operating cash flow of $182.9 billion exceeded $115.9 billion of capex by $67.0 billion, but capex took nearly two-thirds of operating cash, up from about a third in fiscal 2023. From fiscal 2027, more future data center leases will be classed as operating leases, so those payments will come out of operating cash and weigh more on free cash flow. Analysts expect $34.6 billion of free cash flow for fiscal 2027, and Microsoft ended June with $76.8 billion of cash and short-term investments against $46.1 billion of bonds. At 27x forward earnings, the stock trades below its five-year average of 29x.
