- Vietnam Stock Market Week of 26–30/10/2026: Recovery Attempt Fails
The VN-Index fell in four of the five sessions of the week, closing the 30/10 session down 0.8% at 1,741.62 points and losing 32.53 points (-1.83%) over the week. The HNX-Index dropped 9.96 points (-3.79%) over the week to 252.74 points at the last session. Liquidity did not improve and cash flow lacked consensus, so large-cap stocks VCB, TCB and MBB pulled the index down by a combined 3.48 points, while VHM and GAS added 2.63 points. Materials was the weakest sector, and foreign investors were net sellers of over 2.6 trillion VND across both exchanges; SGN was the top weekly gainer at +16.73%, while PVP fell 14.15%.

Banks such as HDB (+3.86%) and VCB (+2.5%) supported the index, while FPT (-2.53%) faced the heaviest selling in the IT sector. On technicals, the Stochastic Oscillator and MACD still point upward, but the index needs to clear the 50-day SMA with improving liquidity; on HNX-Index, the gap between the 50-day and 200-day SMAs is narrowing, and a Death Cross would make the outlook weaker.

Banks exerted the greatest pressure, accounting for 8 of the top 10 stocks with the most negative impact and removing nearly 6 points from VN-Index; VN30-Index lost 17.56 points (-0.92%). Technically, VN-Index retested its 50-day SMA on volume below its 20-day average, while MACD kept its upward momentum after crossing above the signal line; HNX-Index is retesting the middle line of its Bollinger Bands and oscillating sideways.

- Is Nebius Stock a Buy After Its 36% Pullback?
Nebius Group (NBIS) has fallen 36% from its near-$300 peak as an AI stock sell-off over funding concerns hit the sector. The AI cloud company builds data centers fitted with Nvidia GPU chips and leases them mainly to Microsoft and Meta Platforms. Analysts expect revenue of $3.34 billion this year and $12.24 billion next year, and Nebius has more than $40 billion in long-term commitments from investment-grade customers, with Nvidia holding a stake. Management expects $20 billion to $25 billion in capex this year, funded by debt and new stock, while the market capitalization stands at $43 billion; prepayments of around $9 billion are guided for 2026, and the company had about $8 billion in cash at the end of the second quarter. The author notes the stock trades at less than four times next year's revenue estimate, which could make it attractive to risk-seeking growth investors, though future profit margins remain hard to predict.
- Is the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF Still a Buy for Long-Term Investors? Here's My Honest Take.
The author argues the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO) remains one of the best long-term investments despite questions about concentration. Technology makes up roughly 40% of the index and the top 10 holdings nearly 40%, both historically high, making the S&P 500 less diversified than at almost any point in its history. The author attributes the index's adaptability to its market-cap weighting, which has shifted leadership from railroads and energy to financials and now technology. The index includes hundreds of the largest U.S. companies, but it may still go through periods of concentration, underperformance, or a 20% to 30% drawdown.
- Nu Stock Just Cratered, and It's 36% off Its High. Is This a Buying Opportunity?
Nu Holdings, a fast-growing digital bank based in Brazil, is expanding into Mexico, Colombia and the U.S., and has just launched an international bank serving customers in 35 countries. The company has 140 million customers, and its average revenue per active customer rose from $13 last year to $17 this year, while its activity rate reached 83.5% in the second quarter. Early delinquencies fell from 5% to 4.8%, and net interest margin rose to 12.4%, its highest mark in more than a year. The stock fell after Brazil failed to elect the market-friendly candidate, but the article notes that Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, president since 2023, has just been reelected to his fourth term overall. At the current price, Nu trades at less than 11 times forward 1-year earnings, which the author describes as a bargain for a high-growth stock.
