Open: VN-Index Choppy

The market opened slightly in the red, indicating investors’ cautious sentiment. The major indices are trading mixed, fluctuating around the reference levels.

The European Central Bank (ECB) lowered its key interest rate by 0.25 percentage points on September 12, marking the second rate cut this year. As a result, the ECB’s benchmark rate now stands at 3.5%, down from 3.75% previously.

This decision comes amid challenges facing the European economy. Economic growth in the Eurozone remains subdued, while inflation is trending downward, approaching the ECB’s target of 2%.
