Liquidity kept weakening, with average HOSE volume above 645 million shares per session, down 9.38% from the previous week. SHS said that in a positive scenario, VN-Index could return to the 1,760-point zone if Vingroup and other large caps keep their upward trend and banks rebound. AseanSC expects the index to fluctuate between 1,720 and 1,770 points, with nearer support at 1,715–1,730 and resistance at 1,755–1,775. Experts are watching banks such as TCB, HDB, VPB, CTG and TPB, and flag volatility around the U.S. midterm elections in November.

- Large cash flows return, stock market posts strongest gain in over half a year
The VN-Index jumped 46.7 points, or 2.76%, to 1,738 points, its strongest gain since April 8. Vingroup-linked stocks VIC, VHM and VRE hit the daily limit and contributed about 35 points, while 246 stocks rose and 16 hit the ceiling on HoSE. Trading value reached nearly 18,200 billion VND, up about 43% from the 20-session average. Foreign investors ended a 20-session selling streak with net buying of about 160 billion VND, led by TCB, MSN and VIC, while FPT, VCB and ACB saw net selling. The article cautions that the index's gain depends heavily on Vingroup stocks.
- VN-Index Loses Nearly 33 Points: Banks Pressure Market, Vingroup Group Cushions Decline
VN-Index fell more than 32.5 points, about 1.8%, in the week of October 26–30 after a notable earlier recovery. The financial group dropped nearly 2%, with four banking stocks (LPB, VPB, TCB and BID) and securities firm TCX weighing most heavily. On the other side, VIC and VPL, both part of the Vingroup ecosystem, added 7.3 points and 1.6 points, helping the index avoid steeper losses. HNX-Index fell as much as 3.8%, about 10 points, with KSF the largest drag at 2 points. On October 30, foreign investors net sold 647 billion VND, their sixth straight session of net selling.
- Mirae Asset Expert Warns of a Common Mistake Investors Make When Trying to 'Bottom-Fish' Stocks
Ms. Nguyen Thi Binh Minh, Director of the Business Center at Mirae Asset Vietnam Securities, says a common mistake is focusing on stocks that have fallen the most rather than assessing business quality and prospects. According to MoneyGain, as of 25 October 2026, 513 companies had reported third-quarter financials, with combined profit rising 16.4% year on year even as many share prices fell. The VN-Index's P/E was about 12.3 times on 23 October, or 10.3 times excluding Vingroup. The share of stocks trading above their 50-session moving average reached 44.33%, the highest since March 2026, but remained below 50%. Ms. Minh stresses risk management, saying a 20-25% portfolio cap per stock is only a reference limit.
- Experts point to sector groups that could draw cash flow in Q4
Mr. Bùi Văn Huy, General Director of FIDT, says the recent rebound in the VN-Index has been driven largely by Vingroup-related stocks, with VIC and VHM alone adding over 21 points to the index on the 22/10 session. Cash flow remains weak, liquidity has not surged, foreign investors are net sellers and interest rates are still high, so the index's gains do not yet mean overall market health has fully recovered. For Q4, he suggests buying on market corrections rather than rushing, deploying capital gradually, limiting margin use, favoring companies with solid finances and avoiding chasing overheated blue chips. Sectors he says investors may watch include infrastructure, public investment, energy and green transition, and companies benefiting from preferential loans, while technology and digital transformation still face pressure from the global AI wave. He also stresses monitoring inflation, exchange rates and Fed policy, and reducing stock exposure if inflation gets out of control or interest rates turn upward.
- Notable Stocks to Watch at Market Open, Oct. 23
The digest reports that foreign investors net bought over 300 billion VND for a second straight session after an extended selling streak, though net foreign flows since early October remain negative by more than 6 trillion VND. VN-Index rose 46.7 points in the Oct. 21 session, driven mainly by limit-up gains in Vingroup-linked stocks. Margin lending by securities firms reached a record 463 trillion VND at the end of Q3 2026, up 2% from the previous quarter. The State Securities Commission penalized three companies listed on UPCoM over Oct. 19–20, 2026. The piece also notes that the central counterparty (CCP) clearing mechanism is expected from Q1 2027, prompting brokers to speed up their procedures.
- Many stocks 'going cold' in investors' eyes
SSI Research says the VN-Index is down about 9% from its 2026 peak, but excluding Vingroup-related stocks the index has fallen as much as 16% since early September 2025. In the first 9 months of the year, the index excluding VIC, VHM, VRE and VPL dropped 6.5%, while the Vingroup group rose 22.7%. VinaCapital argues that capital concentrated in a few leading stocks leaves many businesses with good prospects overlooked, and BVH, GMD and PVS have risen about 20-40% since the start of the year. Deputy CEO Nguyen Hoai Thu says investors should study each company rather than chase the market leaders, and that low prices alone do not identify an opportunity. SSI Research forecasts market-wide profit growth slowing to about 10.1% in 2027 from 30% in 2026.

- Palantir Technologies (PLTR) Deepens Sovereign AI Deployments Across Sensitive Industries
Palantir Technologies (PLTR) announced a new wave of sovereign AI deployments with partners including L3Harris, McCarthy, NVIDIA, Ondas, and Tampa General Hospital. The collaborations span sensitive sectors such as defense, advanced manufacturing, construction, and healthcare, focusing on real-world AI workflows and data control. Clients use Palantir's platforms to fine-tune models, keep control over their data, and pursue operational efficiency. The article argues the moves reinforce the company's software moat but also heighten reliance on large U.S. government and defense contracts and a customer base skewed heavily toward the U.S. It suggests tracking upcoming earnings updates through late 2026 for disclosures on total contract value and how much demand comes from outside the U.S.
- Down 40%, Is Robinhood Stock a Buy on the Latest Dip?
Robinhood (HOOD) shares are down about 40% from their all-time highs, and a disappointing after-the-bell third-quarter earnings report on Oct. 27 added to the pressure. Crypto revenue fell 55% to $120 million, the fourth straight quarterly decline, while overall transaction revenue rose 19% to $867 million, helped by options and prediction-market event contracts. Adjusted EPS fell 3% to $0.60, though it beat the $0.56 analyst consensus. October deposits topped $13 billion, including $6 billion from the Dell Foundation. The article calls the stock not a bargain at a forward P/E of about 26.5 on 2027 estimates, but says it is nearing the point where investors may start to take interest as crypto becomes less of a drag.
- Bitcoin ETF Investors Head for the Exits After Record Binance Hack
U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw $643.2 million in outflows on Friday, their biggest outflow of October and first full session after the roughly $6.4 billion Binance hack. Ethereum ETFs extended their outflow streak to five days, about $431 million, and Solana ETFs lost about $72 million over the week. Bitcoin fell about 4% on Friday, with more than $1.3 billion in leveraged positions liquidated, before steadying near $77,520 on Saturday. Binance pledged to cover all losses with company funds and an emergency reserve, while Tether and Circle froze more than $2.3 billion in stolen stablecoins. The article notes the drop was far smaller than the nearly 11% plunge after a failed attack on Binance in 2018.
- Everything changed for the oil, AI and bond trades over the past month
Treasury yields and oil futures moved together through most of 2026, but that link broke in October. According to BlackRock's Jeffrey Rosenberg, treasuries and oil had an 80% correlation this year, and the breakdown reflects the AI trade's retreat, which the market now sees as a bigger risk than geopolitics. After a Nasdaq sell-off on Friday and Google's biggest single-day decline in its history, which wiped out half a trillion dollars in value, yields fell as investors read AI weakness as a sign of a softer U.S. economy. Fed Chair Kevin Warsh disagreed, arguing that investment is broadening beyond AI, even though business investment rose 12.7% in Q3, the biggest gain outside the pandemic since 2011. Rosenberg says long-dated Treasuries remain the only effective hedge in a disinflationary scenario, but high inflation and oil prices limit that role, and bonds could face pressure if the AI boom persists alongside U.S. fiscal challenges.
- Greg Abel Just Spent $330 Million on This Tech Stock. Here's What It Means for Investors.
In mid-October, Berkshire Hathaway under CEO Greg Abel put another $330 million of idle cash into Bending Spoons (BSP), adding to the roughly $600 million stake it bought in the company's IPO earlier this year. Bending Spoons, a $30 billion company, owns digital brands including Eventbrite, Evernote, Vimeo, AOL and Remini, with over 1 billion registered users and over 400 million monthly users. Its long-term debt rose from nearly $2.3 billion in mid-2025 to nearly $4.1 billion by June 2026, and the Berkshire share sale was a dilutive private placement of newly issued stock. Second-quarter revenue reached $704 million, up 126% year over year, with per-share earnings of $0.28 versus $0.11 a year earlier and adjusted earnings of $0.46 versus $0.17. Analysts expect 47% revenue growth next year, and the article argues the investment shows Abel's Berkshire is willing to seek technology opportunities despite taking on more risk.
