🇻🇳 Vietnamese stocks before the Lunar New Year holiday: Trading is sparse, indices are fluctuating. Liquidation on the HOSE exchange today reached only 19,270 billion VND, a sharp decrease compared to last week and the lowest level since the beginning of the year. Cautious sentiment ahead of the Tet holiday, coupled with a prolonged correction and a lack of leading stocks, has led to a noticeable weakening of capital inflow into the market. The VN-Index fluctuated within a narrow range, mostly below the reference level, and closed around 1,755 points, showing only a negligible decrease. In contrast, the VN30 index maintained its positive momentum, thanks to support from several blue-chip stocks. The market was highly polarized. Oil and gas was a rare bright spot, while banking and real estate experienced mixed movements. The Vingroup group continued to dominate the index, with VIC rising but VHM falling sharply. Foreign investors continued their net selling streak for the sixth consecutive session, but the value was only 255 billion VND. 📌 Technically, indicators suggest selling pressure remains. If the VN-Index falls below 1,750 points, the 1,730 point level could be the nearest support. Investors are advised to reduce their stock holdings and limit leverage in the short term. (Vnexpress)
