VN-Index breaks through and approaches 1,700 points.

VTV.vn - After a period of stagnation, the stock market became vibrant again today with all groups of stocks rising sharply, pushing the VN-Index close to the 1,700-point mark.

The stock market became vibrant again today, with all groups of stocks experiencing strong gains.

Ahead of FTSE Russell's announcement regarding the upgrade of Vietnam's market status from frontier to emerging market, expected in the early hours of October 8th (Vietnam time), the Vietnamese stock market experienced a lively trading session this morning, with gains of around 40 points.

This morning's purple color (indicating price increases) was concentrated in the securities sector. At the end of the morning session, SSI and VND in the securities sector maintained their purple color. HCM, VIX, MBS, and SHS also achieved gains of around 5-7%.

Although they didn't hit the ceiling price, VCB, HPG, and VIC still topped the list of stocks contributing most positively to the overall market this morning.

The positive trend also spread to other sectors such as information technology, oil and gas, and chemicals, with overall sector growth reaching around 2%.

The remaining sectors also recorded positive developments, with green dominating.

Conversely, LPB was the stock that contributed the most to the main index this morning, but the impact was insignificant. At the close of trading, LPB fell by more than 1%.

According to a report by FiinTrade, in the first nine months of 2025, foreign investors recorded a record net selling of over VND 77.1 trillion through the order matching channel on the HoSE, exceeding the net selling volume for the entire year of 2024 (VND 73.1 trillion). This prolonged capital outflow has caused the foreign ownership ratio on the HoSE to fall to its lowest level in nearly 13 years, at only 15.61%.

However, the strong inflow of domestic capital into the stock market in recent times has helped to balance the market and even led to historically high surges in both liquidity and the main index.

VN-Index breaks through and approaches 1,700 points, with numerous stocks surging.

At the close of trading on October 6th, the VN-Index rose 49.68 points to 1,695.5 points, with a trading volume of over 1.08 million shares, equivalent to over 32,246.3 billion VND. Across the entire exchange, there were 259 gainers, 68 losers, and 43 stocks that remained unchanged.

The VN30 basket saw only one stock decline, while the remaining 29 stocks rose, with many hitting their upper limit, such as SSI, VPB, and VRE. The banking sector also saw strong gains, with 26 stocks rising and only one declining. Securities stocks like SSI, VDS, VND, HCM, ORS, TCI, VIX, VCI, AGR, APS, CTS, SHS, DSC, and DSE all hit their upper limits. The real estate sector also surged, with VRE, HDG, PDR, and DIG reaching their upper limits. Oil and gas stocks such as PVC, PVB, PVS, BSR , PVD, PLX, OIL, and PTV all increased in price.

In addition, many large-cap stocks in other sectors also rose sharply, contributing positively to the overall increase, such as HPG up 5.61%, DCM up 4.16%, BSR up 4.81%, MSN up 3.75%,FPT up 2.25%, HDG up 7%, VNM up 1.79%, VJC up 3.87%, HAH up 5.19%, GEX up 5.14%, and VGC up 3.58%.

However, foreign investors continued to net sell nearly 1,700 billion VND on the market. The stocks with the strongest net selling included MWG with over 310 billion VND, MBB 278.82 billion VND, STB 211.9 billion VND, VRE 196.43 billion VND, HDB 164.17 billion VND, VHM 163.01 billion VND, TCB 128.43 billion VND, CII 105.72 billion VND…

Today's developments show that the market is experiencing strong buying pressure again, with simultaneous gains across many stock groups, especially banking, securities, real estate, and oil and gas. Although foreign investors continued to be net sellers, the momentum from domestic investors still helped the VN-Index break through nearly 1,700 points. High liquidity and the leadership of large-cap stocks indicate positive investor sentiment, creating a foundation for the market to maintain its upward trend in the coming sessions.
