Market liquidity increased significantly, surpassing 27,200 billion VND, equivalent to over 1 billion USD, and the market was also supported by large-scale net buying by foreign investors.
At the close of trading on June 15th, the VN-Index rose 7.66 points to 1,799.31 points. The HNX-Index increased 0.42 points to 310.91 points, and the UPCOM-Index gained 0.33 points to 126.7 points. Notably, the VN30-Index rose 18.12 points, or 0.93%, to 1,962.48 points.
The market experienced considerable volatility, with the VN-Index falling sharply in the morning session before reversing and rising strongly towards the end of the session thanks to increased demand for large-cap stocks. Market breadth leaned positively, with 398 gainers, significantly higher than the 254 losers.
Liquidity continued to improve strongly. The total trading value on the three exchanges reached over VND 27,205 billion, of which matched order transactions accounted for approximately VND 22,211 billion with nearly 868 million shares changing hands. Block trades alone contributed approximately VND 8,709 billion.
The most notable highlight of the session was the surge in the securities sector stocks. A series of stocks rose sharply, with TCX, VPX, and CTS all hitting their upper limit. Many leading stocks also recorded positive performance, such as VIX up 3.23%, SHS up 3.85%, SSI up 3.44%, VND up 3.51%, VCI up 3.6%, and VCK up 2.84%.
Notably, VPX shares surged to their maximum limit of 27,150 VND/share after being added to the list of securities eligible for margin trading. Previously, nearly 1.9 billion VPX shares were officially listed on the HoSE from December 2025. After meeting the requirements regarding listing time, financial report quality, financial situation, and information disclosure obligations, the stock was granted margin trading status as per regulations.

Besides the securities sector, bank stocks also traded positively and played a supporting role for the market. TCB increased by 1.44%, MBB by 1.41%, SSB by 2.06%, EIB by 2.17%, and MSB by 2.67%.
The industrial sector saw several stocks rise sharply, such as GMD up 4.74%, GEX up 3.73%, and VJC up 1.6%. Meanwhile, retail stock MWG continued to attract investment, rising 3.93% and becoming one of the most positive contributors to the index's upward trend.
Conversely, the oil and gas sector faced strong selling pressure and became the biggest drag on the market. BSR fell 5.69%, PLX lost 3.87%, PVS dropped 2.86%, while GAS also declined sharply.
The real estate sector continued to diverge. VIC fell 1.48% and VHM fell 1.87%, making them the two stocks with the most negative impact on the VN-Index. Statistically, VIC alone deducted approximately 4.68 points from the index, while VHM caused the VN-Index to drop by more than 2.2 points.
On the support side, HPG was the biggest contributor to the VN-Index's rise, adding nearly 2 points, followed by TCX, HVN, MWG, BID, VPX, and TCB.
One of the key drivers helping the market maintain its positive momentum is the strong net buying activity of foreign investors. Across the entire market, foreign investors made net purchases of approximately 4,110 billion VND.
On the HOSE, foreign investors made net purchases of approximately VND 4,060 billion. VIC led the list of stocks with the highest net purchases, exceeding VND 4,400 billion. Other stocks heavily bought included HPG with VND 167 billion and MWG with VND 138 billion. Conversely, VHM saw the strongest net selling with VND 191 billion, followed by VPB and VCB with values of VND 117 billion and VND 94 billion respectively.
On the HNX, foreign investors made net purchases of 29 billion VND, focusing on MBS and PVS with a value of approximately 15 billion VND each. In addition, SHS, C69, and VGS also recorded net buying activity.
On UPCOM, foreign investors made net purchases of 25 billion VND. ACV led the way with a net purchase value of approximately 21 billion VND. Meanwhile, BVB was the stock with the strongest net selling, at around 1 billion VND.
With the return of billions of USD inflows and large-scale net buying from foreign investors, the stock market is showing more positive signs after a prolonged correction period. Although profit-taking pressure still exists in some sectors, the VN-Index approaching the 1,800-point mark is seen as a signal that investor sentiment is gradually improving, creating a foundation for more positive developments in the upcoming trading sessions.
