Market Liquidity Overview for May 19-23
|
Money flow last week saw a breakthrough in the FUEVFVND fund certificate with a trading volume surge of nearly 1,200% to almost 4 million units per session. However, the market lacked many codes with such strong breakthroughs. Only 8 codes recorded an increase in trading volume of over 100% compared to the previous week.
In terms of sectors, the money flow did not show a clear trend. However, some groups still attracted attention. The real estate group had many representatives attracting money on the HOSE exchange. VPH, CRE, HPX, and HAR recorded liquidity increases ranging from 60% to 110%.
Pharmaceutical stocks, including DCL, IMP, and DVM, as well as plastic stocks such as BMP, NTP, and VTZ, were also among the top gainers in liquidity last week.
On the HNX exchange, securities stocks were slightly polarized in terms of liquidity. VFS, VIG, and PSI were among the top gainers, while TVC, APS, and BVS saw declines.
Among the stocks that witnessed a decrease in liquidity were several codes belonging to the steel and industrial real estate sectors. In the steel group, HPG, TLH, HSG, ITQ, and VGS all saw significant declines in trading volume. In the industrial real estate group, BCM, GVR, LHG, and IDC were among the top losers in liquidity.
