TRADING STRATEGY
The stock market recovered to the 1,371-point mark, with a slight increase in liquidity compared to the previous session, though still below the weekly average. Capital flows rotated and tended to focus on leading stocks in the real estate, F&B, retail, and technology sectors. On the downside, selling pressure emerged in large-cap financial stocks and small-to-mid-cap stocks in the chemicals, industrial services, construction, and materials sectors. Today, the VN-Index is likely to fluctuate within the 1,365–1,375 range.
The market remains in a narrow sideways trend during the final sessions of Q2 2025 NAV reporting. Investor sentiment continues to be cautious, as capital inflows largely concentrate on selective individual stocks rather than spreading across the board over multiple sessions. A highlight of last week’s trading was the relatively strong recovery in stocks considered sensitive to Vietnam–U.S. tariff negotiations or those expected to benefit from macroeconomic policies following the conclusion of the 9th Session of the 15th National Assembly. This indicates that expectations for the VN-Index to gradually advance toward the key psychological threshold of 1,400 points in the near future are entirely plausible—provided no major global macroeconomic headwinds arise. Investors are advised to maintain a strategic core portfolio, look to accumulate on dips during upswings, and prioritize companies with projected earnings growth in Q2 and Q3 of 2025.
