Investor sentiment turned cautious, with heightened selling pressure across the market leading to a lackluster trading session for the VN-Index. Closing the December 12th session, the VN-Index retreated to 1,646.89 points, marking a decline of over 52 points and its fourth consecutive day of significant losses.
