The market experienced a lackluster transition from Q3 to Q4/2025, maintaining a narrow accumulation range below the 1,700-point resistance level. The benchmark index fluctuated narrowly around 1,660 points during the first three sessions, with declining liquidity and intensified selling pressure in the subsequent sessions. The week’s trading activity revealed a divergence in sector performance, as selling pressure primarily stemmed from stocks that had previously rallied, such as real estate and public investment. Conversely, buying interest returned to select large-cap stocks in the banking and securities sectors. By week’s end, the VN-Index closed at 1,645.82 points, down 14.88 points (-0.90%), remaining above the psychological support level of 1,600 points.

Among specific stocks, MWG faced the heaviest net selling pressure, with a total value of VND 681 billion, significantly outpacing other stocks. VHM followed with net selling of VND 573.3 billion, while FPT (VND 550.1 billion) and STB (VND 548.5 billion) also experienced substantial outflows. Other large-cap stocks under withdrawal pressure included SSI (VND 496.3 billion), HPG (VND 323.3 billion), DIG (VND 260.7 billion), and VNM (VND 255.5 billion).

On the buying side, VIC led with net purchases of VND 221.7 billion, followed by TCB (VND 205.1 billion), LPB (VND 157.5 billion), and TAL (VND 141.1 billion). ANV (VND 106.3 billion), TCH (VND 84.1 billion), and CII (VND 71.1 billion) also attracted notable foreign interest.
