The spotlight falls on Dragon Capital’s recent trade activities. On August 25, the firm sold 3.9 million DXG shares (of the Dat Xanh Group), reducing its ownership from 14.06% (over 143 million shares) to 13.67% (over 139 million shares).

DXG share price movement over the past 6 years

On the exchange, DXG shares have staged a strong recovery. After plunging to a low of VND 10,500 per share on April 9 (during a market-wide shock due to tariff changes), the stock surged and ended August at VND 23,400 per share – more than doubling in just five months and reaching its highest level since mid-2022.

SFI share price movement from the beginning of 2024 to August 29, 2025

Following a similar selling trend, the foreign fund Samarang Ucits also reduced its stake in SAFI Joint Stock Company (SFI) from 6.06% to 4.42%, equivalent to 1.1 million shares, and is no longer a major shareholder after offloading 400,000 shares on August 27, earning approximately VND 11 billion.

In the market, SFI shares have declined by 5% over nearly two months (from VND 28,100 per share on July 4 to VND 26,400 per share on August 29). However, compared to its April low of VND 22,300 per share, the stock is still up by 19%.
