VN-Index returns to the 1,200 point mark.

Stocks surged as green spread across the market, with the VN-Index closing above 1,200 points and no blue-chip stocks declining.

Today's trading session opened cautiously as this is the last week before the September 2nd holiday. The VN-Index edged slightly above the reference level after the opening auction, but the increase was not significant. Most leading sectors, such as banking and real estate, maintained a sideways trading pace.

Green dominated completely, with 419 stocks rising on the HoSE exchange compared to only 90 falling. Within the VN30 group, no blue-chip stocks closed in the red.

The biggest gainers among large-cap stocks were BCM and VNM, both rising by over 4%, whileFPT , VRE, and HPG increased by over 3%. GVR and MWG surpassed their reference prices by more than 2%. VIC, GAS, STB, and PLX gained nearly 2% in market value.

Mid-cap stocks also traded actively, with many approaching their ceiling prices. In the real estate sector, QCG had no sellers, DXG rose more than 5%, and DIG, CII, SCR, and NBB closed in positive territory. EIB attracted investor attention, closing up more than 6% with a trading volume of over 10 million shares.

Total market liquidity reached over 22,600 billion VND. Of that, liquidity on the HoSE exchange reached nearly 19,800 billion VND, a slight decrease compared to the end of last week's trading session. Foreign investors made net purchases of nearly 130 billion VND today.
