After yesterday's positive spring opening session, the positive short-term outlook was strengthened when many indicators sent buy signals back to the stock market.
However, the increase of more than 100 points from the 1,750 point zone in the previous four consecutive sessions has somewhat hindered the market, causing VN-Index to fluctuate and struggle almost throughout today's session (February 24), with a strongly differentiated electronic board.
The positive point is that liquidity continues to increase and low price supply pressure does not appear, investors have held more and only take advantage of restructuring part of the portfolio. The index accordingly did not fluctuate too strongly and even surged in the last minutes when more stocks eased their upward momentum.
At the end of today's session, VN-Index increased by 7.48 points, equivalent to 0.4%, to more than 1,867 points.
The most impressive trading session today is liquidity with more than 1 billion shares transferred, equivalent to a trading value of over 32,536 billion VND. According to statistics, 2 codes with a trading value exceeding the 2,000 billion VND mark are HPG and FPT.
Although it is a code that contributes a lot to liquidity, FPT is the code that was net sold the strongest by foreign investors on the HoSE exchange. In today's session, FPT continued to be dumped by foreign investors with a net selling value of over 1,450 billion VND.
