As of 2 pm, the VN-Index maintained a slight gain of over 5 points, crossing the 1,258 mark. Similar fluctuations were observed in the HNX and UPCoM. The modest trading volume indicated that the buying force to “catch the bottom” was not significant after the market had witnessed considerable declines in the past.
The green hue spread across various sectors and stocks, with 415 gainers versus 280 losers, while 909 stocks remained unchanged. However, the top 10 influential stocks significantly supported the VN-Index’s 5-point rise.
VCB took the lead, contributing over 1.9 points to the increase, followed by GVR with nearly 0.7 points, FPT with more than 0.5 points, and BID, TCB, and VHM, each adding over 0.3 points.

AM Session: Mild Recovery, but Trading Volume Drops
The VN-Index maintained its positive territory throughout the morning session, ending 4.83 points higher at 1,258.10. A similar scenario played out in the HNX and UPCoM, which rose 0.74 points to 232.2 and 0.23 points to 92.55, respectively. However, the trading volume weakened compared to the previous session and the five-day average.
Several large-cap stocks positively contributed to the VN-Index’s gain, led by VCB, which added nearly 1.1 points, followed by GVR with almost 0.7 points and FPT with close to 0.4 points. In total, the top 10 stocks contributed approximately 3.4 points to the index’s increase.
In terms of sector performance, media and entertainment stocks continued to lead the gains, surging 10.61%, driven by VNZ’s 15% rally. The market also witnessed two other sectors climbing over 1%—telecommunications and transportation. On the downside, the semiconductor sector declined the most by 5.13% due to the pressure from VBH’s plunge.
The overall trading volume across the market was approximately VND 5.7 trillion, lower than the previous session and the five-day average.
