At the end of the session on August 8, VN Index closed at 1584.95, up 3.14 points, equivalent to 0.2%. Market attraction shifted strongly to the real estate group, with many stocks hitting the ceiling such as CII, PDR, HAG...
The groups of stocks that increased well in the morning session continued to be a plus in the afternoon session and purple also appeared in some codes such as GEE and PVD.
The banking group has a strong differentiation. In addition to VIB, VCB, MSB... still maintaining a light green color, a series of stocks that have recently increased rapidly are facing correction pressure: MBB (-0.65%), HDB (-1.58%),SHB (-1.06%), TPB (-0.51%), BID (-1.58%), TCB (-1.43%)...
Similar to the financial securities group, while SSI (+1%), VND (+1.27%), VIX (+0.53%)... increased points, SHS (-2.9%), HCM (-1.06%), VCI (-2.15%), MBS (-1.9%) decreased points...
On all three floors, the breadth of today's session still leaned towards the group of increasing prices with 439 green stocks, counterbalancing 363 stocks decreasing points. However, there was no support from the group of large-cap stocks when 18/30 stocks in VN30 decreased points.
The total transaction value was VND55,700 billion, of which the HoSE accounted for more than VND49,100 billion. However, foreign investors continued to be a negative factor when they increased their net selling activities. The total net selling value of foreign investors today was more than VND800 billion.
This group's net selling focused mainly on large-cap stocks (VN30), spread across many industries such as BID (-216 billion VND), SSI (-206 billion VND), HPG (-150 billion VND),FPT (-134 billion VND), VRE (-96 billion VND), CTR (-60 billion VND)...
Overall, the market today recorded a weakening of active cash flow, especially in the large-cap group. Profit-taking pressure after a strong increase, along with the fierce net selling activity of foreign investors, is creating a significant obstacle to the recovery of the VN-Index.
Previously, the morning trading session on August 8 started in positive green, when early buying power entered the market strongly, especially in financial and energy stocks.
At 9:30, VN-Index increased by more than 6 points, trading around 1,588 points, while HNX-Index inched up, fluctuating around 272 points.
Cash flow continues to flow into the financial sector, helping this sector become the main support for the market. In addition, the energy - oil and gas sector also recorded positive developments, reflecting expectations of recovery from international oil prices.
The focus of attention this morning was on F88 stock, when it officially traded its first session on the UpCOM floor. Right from the beginning of the session, F88 hit the ceiling (40%), up to 888,800 VND/share - the most expensive on the newly launched stock exchange on its first day.
Returning to the general market, liquidity in the morning session alone increased by nearly 30% compared to the same time yesterday, reflecting a more active trading level.
However, the increased active selling pressure shows that profit-taking and cautious sentiment is dominant. Meanwhile, weaker buying pressure makes the downtrend gradually become more evident in the second half of the morning session.
In terms of capitalization, the VN30 group was the main cause of the index's decline, with a series of bluechip stocks falling sharply. Foreign investors also increased their net selling in this group, accounting for 82% of the total net selling value in the entire market. At the end of the morning session, the VN-Index lost more than 12 points.
