Foreign investors' transactions in listed stocks recorded a sharp downward trend compared to last month.

According to the Hanoi Stock Exchange, foreign investors' trading activities in listed stocks in November 2025 recorded a sharp decline compared to the previous month. The total trading value of this group decreased by 33%, reflecting caution in the face of fluctuations in the regional and domestic financial markets. Specifically, foreign investors bought more than VND 2,018 billion and sold more than VND 2,076 billion, thereby net selling more than VND 58 billion in the month.

In contrast to the above developments, the self-trading activities of member securities companies at HNX have grown significantly. The value of self-trading transactions reached more than VND 781 billion, up 46% compared to the previous month and accounting for more than 2.2% of the total transaction value of the whole market. Notably, while foreign investors tend to net sell, the self-trading block of securities companies net bought more than VND 298 billion, showing the proactive participation of domestic organizations in the market, contributing to strengthening liquidity and stabilizing investor sentiment.

By the end of November 2025, the stock market listed on the Hanoi Stock Exchange had 306 listed companies, with a total listed value of over VND 173 trillion. The market size continued to be maintained, reflecting the efforts of the Hanoi Stock Exchange in improving the quality of corporate governance, information transparency and improving trading infrastructure.

At the end of the month, market capitalization reached over VND447.9 trillion, down slightly by 0.9% compared to the end of October 2025. This development mainly stemmed from the adjustment of some large-cap industry groups in the context of international market fluctuations and increased profit-taking pressure.

Despite many intertwined factors, the stock market on the Hanoi Stock Exchange remains stable, with the active participation of securities companies' self-trading sector and consolidated listing activities. Maintaining market discipline, strengthening supervision and improving the quality of information disclosure continue to be important solutions to promote the healthy and sustainable development of the stock market in the coming time.
