Stock Market Week of July 21-25, 2025: Setting a New Historic High with a Six-Week Winning Streak
The VN-Index has been on a remarkable six-week streak of consecutive gains, accompanied by record-breaking liquidity. The persistent flow of funds and the unwavering confidence of investors have laid a solid foundation for the market’s upward trajectory. However, with the index reaching new historic highs, the recent selling spree by foreign investors and profit-taking at these elevated levels could trigger some technical fluctuations in the short term.
The Stock Market Sell-Off: VN-Index Plunges Below 1500, Foreign Investors Dump 1.2 Billion
Market liquidity remained high this morning, with a slight increase in matched transactions on the HoSE, up nearly 3%. However, today’s performance contrasts with yesterday’s morning session. A broad-based decline in stock prices indicates a resurgence of selling pressure, particularly from foreign investors, who offloaded a net amount of VND 1,372 billion, with over VND 1,200 billion on the HoSE alone.
The Power of Differentiation: Small and Mid-Cap Stocks Make a Striking Comeback
While the blue-chip stocks dragged the broader index down, the mid and small-cap stocks surged. 21 stocks hit the roof, and nearly 100 others gained over 1%, an unusual phenomenon as the VN-Index dipped.
“Extreme Foreign Sell-Off, VN-Index Plunges Below 1500 Points”
The VN-Index hovered around the 1500 mark last week, thanks to bottom-fishing efforts by cash flow. The index rebounded from a low of 1479.98 to close at 1495.21 on Friday. The market remains deeply divided, with many mid and small-cap stocks hitting the ceiling. Large-cap stocks, on the other hand, witnessed a net sell-off of over VND 1.8 trillion, out of a total net sell-off of VND 2.296 trillion.
