Despite the pressures stemming from global geopolitical instability, Vietnamese stocks have maintained a positive upward trajectory in recent days, with the VN-Index successfully surpassing the crucial 1,350-point resistance level. Market sentiment has been buoyed by developments in trade negotiations and positive macroeconomic prospects.
While awaiting the official negotiation outcomes, the upcoming Q2 financial results are expected to provide short-term momentum for key sectors and the overall market. Although the market is trending positively, geopolitical uncertainties and trade issues remain variables that warrant special attention. Investors are advised to select stocks with strong fundamentals and adopt flexible capital allocation and management strategies, while also taking advantage of margin loan and transaction fee incentives to optimize their performance.
Significant Cost Savings, Enhanced Profits
To empower investors to seize market opportunities and optimize investment costs, KAFI Securities (Kafi) has launched an unprecedented promotional program, “Invest Without Limits with Kafi,” effective from June 23, 2025. The program introduces two key policies: (1) Free trading fees for 30 days from successful account opening (excluding regulatory fees payable to the Exchange); (2) A special margin loan package with an interest rate of just 6.5%/year for 90 days, applicable to customers with outstanding loans up to VND 5 billion. This is the most attractive margin offer in the market today, with a total credit limit of up to VND 1,000 billion.
With these policies, both new and professional investors at Kafi will have the opportunity to maximize profits and swiftly achieve their financial goals. Additionally, the program showcases Kafi’s robust financial strength and commitment to partnering with investors on their journey toward sustainable success.
Costs Are a Critical Factor in Short-Term Investing
According to Mr. Nguyen Quang Thanh, a brokerage specialist with 10 years of experience in Ho Chi Minh City, transaction fees and margin loan interest rates directly impact investors’ profits, especially for those with large accounts who frequently trade and engage in short-term speculation.
“Even a 0.1% higher transaction fee compared to the market average can significantly erode profits over three to six trades per month,” Mr. Thanh added. “Hence, a low-interest margin loan enables investors to accelerate their trades at the right moment without worrying about high-interest burdens.”
Thus, the dual benefit of waived transaction fees and significantly reduced margin interest rates serves as a “double boost” for proactive investment strategies, as the market sheds its short-term negative pressures.
Ms. Luc Kim Thanh, Director of Digital Business and Partnership at Kafi, shared her insights:
“The stock market is entering a period of healthy consolidation, and the valuation of many stocks remains attractive. However, many investors remain on the sidelines due to risk aversion and transaction costs. Our policies are designed to help individual investors, especially those with modest capital, confidently enter the market and seek profitable opportunities. This is not a short-term promotional program; we aim to enhance the investment experience by removing cost barriers and providing tailored tools for different investor segments.”
