VN-Index increases thanks to bluechip stocks, red dominates

Entering the morning session on December 5, the strong pull from VIC right at the opening brought VN-Index close to 1,760 points. However, the increase did not spread as most stocks on the HOSE board were in red.

As VIC cooled down slightly and the bluechip group continued to face selling pressure, VN-Index gradually retreated to the 1,745 point area after more than 1 hour of trading. The rest of the morning session did not see many changes, the index mainly moved sideways in a state of lack of consensus.

At the end of the morning session, HOSE recorded 85 stocks increasing and 204 stocks decreasing. VN-Index increased by 8.03 points to 1,745.27 points. Liquidity continued to be a big minus point with more than 271.6 million units, worth VND8,691 billion, down 35% and 28% respectively compared to yesterday morning. Negotiated transactions reached nearly VND309 billion.

VIC remained the focus when it increased by 6.82% to 142,600 VND, matched more than 5.46 million units and became the main factor pulling the index. Other blue chips provided weak support, with only VHM, BID, and VNM increasing slightly; STB and TPB standing at reference. On the contrary, red dominated but the decrease was not deep, with VJC falling sharply by 2.8%.

The group of small and medium-cap stocks saw some bright spots with VPS, VSI, HII, ABS hitting the ceiling; SMC, HID, TAL, EVG, TNI increasing quite well. TLG stock attracted attention when it increased by 3.6%, with more than 1.1 million units traded thanks to information that KOKUYO Group (Japan) wanted to increase its ownership to more than 65%.

On the downside, the selling pressure at low prices is not large, only some codes such as ACL, HAP, DCL decreased around 4%, but liquidity is low.

On HNX, increased selling pressure caused the index to fall 0.68 points to 261.63 points. Liquidity was over 30 million units, worth VND519.6 billion. Many actively traded codes fell simultaneously, of which GKM and DDG hit the floor.

UPCOM-Index also retreated slightly by 0.23 points to 120.71 points. Small-cap stock HTP stood out with a ceiling increase of 12.5% ​​and was among the highest liquidity groups on the floor.

In addition, G36, DGT, PVX, PIV all increased positively, while AAH led liquidity with 2.81 million units.

In general, the morning session of December 5 showed that the market still depends heavily on pillar stocks, especially VIC, while the general level lacks spread and liquidity continues to weaken. The strong differentiation in the bluechip group and the cautious psychology of investors make the short-term trend not really sustainable. The afternoon session will play an important role in re-establishing the market status, especially if the cash flow shows signs of improvement or there is more traction from large-cap stocks.
