– The Vietnamese stock market maintained its positive momentum in the context of the global financial market easing pressure after the news of a tariff reduction agreement between the US and China. The green color prevailed throughout the trading session with improved liquidity, indicating that money flow participated more confidently. In addition, the strong net buying by foreign investors further boosted enthusiasm and reinforced positive sentiment. At the end of the session, the VN-Index gained more than 10 points, closing at the level of 1,293.43 points.

– In terms of impact, the “king stocks” made a significant contribution to the overall index, typically CTG, MBB, BID, VPB, and VCB, bringing in a total of nearly 5 points for the VN-Index. On the contrary, there was no code that had a significant negative impact.

– VN30-Index continued to break through with nearly 11 points, reaching 1,382.78 points. The green color still dominated with 20 rising codes, 9 falling codes, and 1 code keeping the price. Leading the board were MWG and CTG with an increase of more than 4%. Meanwhile, SSB and TPB were at the bottom when going against the general trend, losing more than 1%.

Most industry groups continued to gain positive points. The non-essential consumer group led the market with an outstanding increase of nearly 7% thanks to the great contribution from the “newbie” VPL newly listed on the stock exchange. This stock had a successful debut on the HOSE when it hit the daily limit right from the start of the session, while also surpassing MWG to become the stock with the largest market capitalization in the non-essential consumer group. In addition, many other stocks in the industry also recorded no less impressive increases, such as PNJ (+4.58%), MWG (+4.44%), GEE (+3.41%), FRT (+1.39%), TCM (+2.98%), DGW (+1.5%), TLG (+2.7%), and TNG (+1.64%).

The groups of materials, finance, information technology, and essential consumer goods also recorded an increase of more than 1%, with a series of codes attracting positive buying force such as HPG, GVR, NKG, CSV, VGC; CTG, MBB, VPB, VIX, FTS; FPT, CMG; VHC, MCH, HAG, and BAF.

On the contrary, the utilities group slightly adjusted after a series of previous positive increases, becoming the only group to close in the red. Typical stocks include POW (-1.16%), GAS (-0.48%), REE (-0.43%), GEG (-0.93%), PPC (-2.37%), TTA (-0.9%).

VN-Index continued to rise strongly while sticking close to the Upper Band of the Bollinger Bands. In addition, the trading volume exceeded the 20-day average, indicating that the money flow participating in the market is showing positive signs. If in the next sessions, the VN-Index continues to maintain its positive momentum, it is likely to have the opportunity to advance to the 1,300-point region. This is an important resistance level, and the result of testing this region will determine the index’s trend in the coming time. Currently, the MACD indicator is maintaining a buy signal and has just cut above the 0 threshold. This indicates that the short-term optimistic outlook is still ongoing.
