At the opening session, the VN-Index rose by 5 points, driven by large-cap stocks such as VIC, GVR, and HPG. Conversely, banking stocks like TCB and SHB exerted downward pressure on the index. Sectors including real estate (NVL, CEO, DIG), retail (DGW, PET), and construction (HHV, CII) attracted significant investment.

According to the Bank for Foreign Trade of Vietnam Securities (VCBS), the VN-Index continued its robust recovery. Most industry groups saw gains, with green dominating the HOSE floor—227 stocks rose, while only 86 declined.
VCBS advises investors to closely monitor market movements in upcoming sessions and leverage intraday rallies to restructure portfolios. This involves divesting from stocks under heavy supply pressure and shifting to those attracting strong investment.
Vietnam Dragon Securities (VDSC) forecasts further market gains but anticipates volatility. Adjustments are likely to be supported by inflows. Investors may consider taking short-term profits as the VN-Index approaches resistance levels. On the buying side, focus on short-term opportunities in stocks with strong upward trends.
