VN-Index Loses Over 22 Points

The stock market entered a downward trend this week, with 4 out of 5 trading sessions ending in losses. Starting from below 1,270 points, the VN-Index fell towards the 1,250-point level. There was a session where the index dropped below this important support level but managed to recover by the closing bell.

Faced with the market’s volatile performance, many investors chose to stay on the sidelines, resulting in low liquidity throughout the week.

At the end of the week (September 13th), the VN-Index decreased by 4.64 points, closing at 1,251.71 points. In contrast, the HNX-Index rose by 0.51 points to 232.42 points, and the UPCoM-Index also increased by 0.23 points to 92.95 points.

Thus, within just one week, the VN-Index lost more than 22 points.
