• Santoli: We are nearing a now-or-never moment for the AI trade to rebound

  The S&P 500 has moved sideways for months, while former AI leaders (tracked by the iShares AI Innovation ETF) fell 35 percentage points relative to the equal-weight S&P 500, recovered half, then gave back most of the bounce. Higher bond yields and oil above $100 a barrel have pressured cyclical sectors, and tighter debt markets are raising hurdle rates for marginal AI data-center borrowers. Goldman Sachs cited trader exhaustion, noting the momentum-factor basket moved at least 5% in a day 30 times in 2026. John Kolovos of Macro Risk Advisors says sentiment is nearing a “fat pitch” for a tactical rebound, but the macro backdrop must cooperate, and hedge funds have sharply cut leverage and tech exposure. Citadel Securities data show retail investors heavily buying dips, yet past market bottoms came when retail traders were net sellers, so any rebound may prove limited in strength and durability.

• Tumbling AI stocks overwhelm markets worldwide as oil prices jump

  The S&P 500 fell 1.2% and the Nasdaq Composite tumbled 2.6% on Thursday, the index's worst day since July, as AI stocks slid on worries about the cost of borrowing to build data centers and high valuations. Lam Research dropped 11.6% despite slightly stronger-than-expected profit and revenue, while Meta fell 7.9%, Nvidia 4.3% and CoreWeave 11%. Asian markets also fell, with South Korea's Kospi down 3.5%, Hong Kong's Hang Seng down 3% and Japan's Nikkei 225 down 2.7%. Brent crude rose 3.7% to $112.80 a barrel, touching its highest level since May, while the 10-year Treasury yield fell to 4.96% from 5.13% as investors sought safer assets. Most U.S. stocks still rose, and the Dow Jones edged up less than 0.1%.

• Sinking AI stocks undercut markets worldwide as oil climbs to its highest price since May

  The S&P 500 fell 1.3% and the Nasdaq composite was down 2.4% around midday, after sharper losses in Asia, while the Dow slipped only 0.1%. AI-related shares sank on worries about the rising cost of borrowing to build data centers and buy chips, as well as high valuations, with Lam Research down 11.1% despite a slight profit and revenue beat, Meta down 7.4%, Nvidia down 4.3% and CoreWeave down 9.6%. South Korea's Kospi fell 3.5%, and Brent crude rose 2.9% to $111.99 a barrel amid uncertainty over the war with Iran. The 10-year Treasury yield dropped to 4.98% from 5.13%, but remains well above its 3.97% level before the war as investors sought safer assets. Most S&P 500 stocks still rose, and results from Procter & Gamble, Lockheed Martin and CSX helped limit losses.

• Wall Street Braces for More Wild Days in Stocks After Tech Rout

  A late-week sell-off in technology stocks, following disappointing results from Amazon, Alphabet and Intel, added to unease over the AI-driven rally. The Cboe Volatility Index touched its highest intraday level since April and the S&P 500 posted its biggest drop since June, though put premiums and stock correlations remain well below March levels, when the US and Israel attacked Iran. Investors are rotating away from the high-flying tech leaders that drove gains this year. Traders are bracing for more swings from the US midterm elections and Nvidia's earnings later in November. Florian Ielpo, head of macro research at Lombard Odier, said the move looks more like a bullish rotation with a derating at its core than the start of a broad market deterioration.

• Oct. 27 Has Historically Marked the Stock Market’s Autumn Bottom

  Deutsche Bank's Jim Reid said October 27 has historically marked the bottom of a typical year's final dip, and stocks rose that day: the S&P 500 gained 0.60% to 7,722.60 and the Nasdaq Composite rose 1.18%. Reid found the S&P 500 was higher over the three months from early October in 21 of the last 23 midterm years, but cautioned that “seasonality isn’t destiny” and that worries around Iran, AI and France remain. Brent crude still settled at $113.88 after falling 1.67%. Investors are watching the Fed decision on October 28, earnings from Microsoft, Alphabet and Amazon, and the midterm elections on November 3. The article flags the October 23 low of 7,623.68 as the level to watch.

• Why the post-midterm market rally could fail

  Jim Paulsen of the Paulsen Perspectives Substack argues that the post-midterm rally may disappoint, as many expect a strong year-end. He says the November-to-April period has been weaker than average when tightening conditions accelerate over the summer. He cites this summer's oil price spike, rising bond yields, a flatter yield curve, a stall in real money supply growth, a stronger US dollar, falling real wages and higher inflation as restrictive forces. He suspects investors may be disappointed and move from overweight positions into more defensive holdings, which could accelerate the downside.

• Plain gold ring and gold bar prices, morning of November 2, at SJC, PNJ, DOJI, Bảo Tín Minh Châu and Bảo Tín Mạnh Hải

  Vietnam's domestic gold opened lower on the morning of November 2 after a sharp drop the previous week, with SJC gold bars offered at VND 139 million per tael and gold rings quoted at VND 135.8–138 million across brands. Spot gold stood at USD 3,895/oz, up 0.55%, after falling more than 3% last week and losing the USD 4,000 level, having hit its lowest in over a year amid a hawkish Fed, strong US data and a tech stock sell-off. In a Kitco survey, 63% of 16 professionals expected prices to keep falling, while 53% of 184 individual investors expected a rise. Marc Chandler said gold could retreat to USD 3,750–3,850/oz if it sets new lows this year, while Alex Kuptsikevich noted the downtrend has lasted nearly two and a half months and some investors may be forced to sell to meet margin calls. The October nonfarm payrolls report, due next Friday, is seen as a key test for expectations of a Fed rate hike in December.

• Not just the exchange rate: What is driving businesses to trade the Chinese yuan?

  China remains Vietnam's largest trading partner: in the first nine months of 2026, bilateral trade reached USD 253.1 billion, up 37.6%, including exports to China of USD 65.8 billion (up 32.9%) and imports of USD 187.3 billion (up 39.3%). As trade flows grow, businesses are paying more attention to payment methods that help control costs and limit exchange-rate risk, and the yuan has risen about 4.6% against the USD and about 3% against the VND since the start of 2026. The article also highlights smart border gate projects such as Móng Cái - Đông Hưng and Hữu Nghị - Hữu Nghị Quan, which aim to cut customs clearance to 4-6 hours and reduce costs by 30-40%. To support businesses, ACB is offering exchange-rate preferences of up to VND 30 per CNY on both buying and selling until 31 December 2026, alongside cross-border payment, trade finance and document support services.

• If I Could Only Buy and Hold 1 "Magnificent Seven" Stock Through 2030, It Would Be This One

  The author judges Nvidia the best pick among the Magnificent Seven through 2030, as its GPUs are widely used for AI workloads and many companies in the group are spending hundreds of billions of dollars on AI infrastructure each year. Nvidia projects global annual data center capital expenditures will reach USD 3–4 trillion by 2030 and expects 70% revenue growth in 2027. The five largest AI hyperscalers are estimated to spend nearly USD 800 billion this year and USD 1.3 trillion next year. If revenue grows 70% in 2027 and doubles again from 2028 to 2030, total growth would reach 240%, far above Meta, the next fastest grower at 26%. The article also notes Nvidia's stock has not had its best year and that the company reports earnings near the end of November.

• Binance sees $3.64 billion in net outflows as withdrawals resume after massive hack

  Binance reported $3.64 billion in net outflows after reopening withdrawals on Sunday, as customers rushed to move funds following a $6.3 billion hack. Between 6 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. UTC, the exchange processed $4.65 billion in withdrawals and $1.01 billion in deposits. The net outflows equaled 2.1% of its $171 billion in total assets, based on its latest proof-of-reserves data. Most of the outflows happened in the first couple of hours, and withdrawal volumes have since stabilized, with services restored in phases across 15 networks while testing continues for the rest. The FBI attributed the hack to North Korean hackers known as TraderTraitor, and Binance said it had covered about 95% of the lost funds and would absorb the losses rather than pass them on to users.

• Titan Minerals expands Dynasty gold system in September quarter as Linderos copper JV advances

  Titan Minerals reported a new gold-silver discovery at the Brecha-Comanche target within its 100%-owned Dynasty project in Ecuador, where hole CVDD26-199 intersected 33.5 metres at 6.6 g/t gold and 55.5 g/t silver outside the existing resource. The company increased its drilling to four diamond rigs, began reverse circulation drilling in October, and targets an updated Dynasty resource estimate and scoping study in the first quarter of 2027. At the Linderos copper project, Hancock subsidiary Hanrine spent US$20 million to lift its interest to 51%, with Titan keeping 49% and being free-carried until Hanrine reaches 80%. At quarter-end Titan held US$2.83 million in cash (about A$4.08 million), spent US$2.41 million on exploration and evaluation, and reported around 0.89 quarters of funding availability.

• Binance net outflows surge to $5.8B as withdrawals resume after record hack

On Saturday, Binance said it had replaced 90% of the lost assets using its corporate treasury, Secure Asset Fund for Users and futures insurance fund.
