In today's trading session (8.), investors are a bit hesitant that the amount of more than 2.8 billion shares traded in yesterday's session (8.5) will put pressure on the market in the last 2 sessions of the week.
However, the waiting mentality was removed when realizing that the profit-taking supply was not large, investors boldly disbursed. Cash flow is still mainly concentrated in the banking group, then gradually spread to other industry groups, helping the VN-Index close the session at the highest level of the day and also the highest closing point in the history of the market, breaking the old record just set on July 28, although liquidity decreased sharply compared to yesterday's record session.
VN-Index increased by 26.56 points (+1.72%) to 1,573.71 points. Total trading volume reached 1.37 billion units, worth VND38,911 billion, down 51% in volume and 50% in value compared to yesterday's trading session. Of which, the agreement transaction only contributed 57 million units, worth VND 1,603.4 billion.
Foreign transactions are a plus point when they returned to net buying 753 billion VND in the whole market. On HoSE alone, foreign investors are net buying approximately VND528 billion
After buying, STB shares were net bought the most by foreign investors in the whole market with a value of 250 billion VND. Following that are a series of Bluechip stocks that were net bought for hundreds of billions of VND. In contrast, foreign investors "disbursed" the strongest at FPT with a value of up to VND 775 billion.
The group of financial stocks continues to receive great attention from cash flow, in which the group of banks that closed all increased in price. This is expected when by the end of last week, most businesses had published their financial reports for the second quarter of 2025 with a colorful picture; in which, the banking group continues to be the growth driver, with many banks maintaining high profits.
Cash flow from the above groups also gradually spread to other bluechip codes, even attracting 2 large codes in the Vingroup group, VIC and VHM, to cross the reference, in which VHM closed up 1.56% to VND 97,500 and VIC increased 0.85% to VND 118,500. VPL also increased by more than 1% to VND84,900.
The stock market is entering August 2025, the period of information low after the second quarter business results announcement season. The US tariff policy was also introduced last weekend and there are no surprises. According to analysts, the market will differentiate strongly, cash flow will tend to seek opportunities in stocks with good profit growth prospects in the third quarter and the second half of the year.
