HOSE floor liquidity today dropped by about 9% from yesterday, equivalent to a loss of over VND 2,000 billion. The VNSmallcap basket was the only one that saw a slight increase in liquidity, while all other groups decreased. The representative index of this basket also outperformed the market with many ceiling codes.

Although the matching value of the smallcap basket only accounted for 12.4% of the total matches on the HOSE floor this session, it was the highest market share in seven weeks. This basket’s liquidity increased by about VND 36 billion, a very small amount, but notable given that all other groups declined.

The VNSmallcap-Index closed up 0.71%, Midcap up 0.56%, VN30-Index down 0.18%, and VN-Index down 0.11%. The reverse flow and active trading continue to confirm the strong movement of money in this group. Many penny stocks impressively surged, such as SCR, ASP, CRE, BIC, DC4, and QCG hitting the ceiling. About 20 other small caps rose within the range of 2% to 6%, and some even had very high liquidity, such as CTI with VND 104.4 billion, up 6.07%; and NTL with VND 116.5 billion, up 5.56%.

Of course, small-cap stocks have never played a significant role in attracting indices, and their liquidity is not prominent compared to other groups. However, these codes often have a large oscillation range and liquidity suitable for small retail speculators. From the perspective of surfing or quick speculation, these are the most profitable stocks.

Regarding the blue-chips, the disappointment lies in the large-cap stocks. Among the top 10 codes in the market, only VPL increased by 0.57%, and VIC remained unchanged, while the rest fell. Even the VN30 basket had only six codes increasing but 21 decreasing. VNM was the most surprising breakthrough in the afternoon, surging from VND 55,700 to VND 57,800 within just 30 minutes. This stock also achieved very high liquidity, reaching nearly VND 411.2 billion in the afternoon session, second only to SHB. VNM closed up 2.52%, equivalent to a 1.97% increase in the afternoon alone. VRE also surprised with a 1.7% gain after closing the morning session unchanged.

However, only seven VN30 stocks made price progress in the afternoon, and only VNM and VRE were notable. On the other hand, 21 codes declined, with many falling by more than 1% compared to the morning closing price. GVR reversed by 1.52% to a 1.19% decrease compared to the reference price. VPB reversed by 1.08% to a 0.27% decrease. TPB, SSB, and SSI were also among the codes that fell significantly.

The pillar stocks are red-hot.

The VN-Index breadth at the end of the session recorded 142 gainers and 149 losers, and the price level dropped significantly. The HOSE closed with 72 codes falling by more than 1% in the morning session, compared to 48. More than ten stocks witnessed high liquidity with deep declines, such as SSI, MWG, STB, HCM, VCI, KBC, and HAH… Even dozens of stocks experienced a price drop of more than 2% during the day with large liquidity, confirming increased selling pressure.

Nevertheless, the money flow differentiation led to many bright spots in price movements, with small-cap codes being the most evident example. In reality, the stalemate remains dominant, especially when viewed from the perspective of money allocation. For instance, the 72 stocks that fell by more than 1% at the end of the day accounted for only 17.4% of the total trading value on the HOSE floor. Conversely, 95 stocks that rose by more than 1% accounted for 34.4% of the trading. The money flow effect is evident. Even when stocks like GEX, DIG, DXG, EVF, BAF, PVD, and HDC… faced significant pressure and fell sharply, buyers maintained support at higher levels, and the closing prices remained above the reference price.

Foreign investors continued to balance buying and selling in the afternoon session, even slightly net buying VND 24.7 billion in the afternoon, while net selling VND 33.7 billion in the morning. The difference only appeared in specific stocks. For example, VHM was net sold dominantly with VND 133.8 billion, and STB with about VND 118.5 billion. On the buying side, EIB bought VND 98.4 billion, and DBC bought VND 78.1 billion… This block still prioritized selling blue-chips over medium and small-cap stocks.
