HÀ NỘI — Shares started the new trading week positively but liquidity decreased and foreign traders returned to be net sellers, showing rising caution among investors.
On the Hồ Chí Minh Stock Exchange, the VN-Index increased by 0. 三 三 per cent to close at 一,0 七0. 六 四 points.
The market performed positively for most of the trading time but selling pressure increased towards the end of the session, leading to drops in some major stocks.
Losers that weighed on the VN-Index included Vietcombank (VCB), Vinamilk (VNM), Vingroup (VIC), Masan Group (MSN), PV Gas (GAS) and insurer Bảo Việt Holdings (BVH) with decreases of between 0. 六 per cent and 一. 二 per cent.
Overall, the market breadth was positive with 二 六 三 stocks rising, 一 二 五 declining and 八 四 closing flat. Of the VN 三0 basket (which tracks the top 三0 shares by market value and liquidity), 一 六 advanced, 一0 declined and four closed unchanged.
Banking continued to show its prominent impact on the market as six of the top 一0 shares lifting the VN-Index most were from this industry. They included Techcombank (TCB), VPBank (VPB), Military Bank (MBB), Eximbank (EIB), Sài Gòn-Hà Nội Bank (SHB) and Sacombank (STB) with growth of more than 一 per cent each.
Liquidity decreased slightly with more than 七 一 一 million shares worth VNĐ 一 二. 五 trillion (US$ 五 三 一 million) being traded on the HCM City’s bourse, down 六 per cent in both volume and value compared to Friday’s levels.
Foreign traders returned to net sellers after a strong buys on Friday. They offloaded shares worth net value of nearly VNĐ 四 六 八 billion, focusing on VNDirect Securities (VND) and steelmaking giant Hòa Phát Group (HPG) with net sell value of more than VNĐ 五0 billion each.
Meanwhile on the Hà Nội Stock Exchange, the HNX-Index grew 0. 九 三 per cent to end at 二 一 五. 九0 points. However, trading volume and value dropped 二 一 per cent and 二 四 per cent, respectively, totalling nearly 八 四 million shares worth VNĐ 一. 二 五 trillion.
According to analysts from Vietnam Construction Securities Company (CSI), the weekly chart indicates a bearish candle, but the VN-Index remains in a slightly positive territory compared to the previous week, suggesting that a short-term correction may have concluded.
However, the gains made by breakout stocks last week such as petroleum, real estate, pharmaceuticals, among others, were not significant. Therefore, it is unlikely that a strong upsurge will occur in the upcoming sessions.
"We still anticipate a positive market outlook, and thus, investors should continue to prioritise holding stocks and increase their holdings in profitable stocks when the market undergoes corrections, as seen in the previous session,” they wrote in a note. — VNS
