Shares rebound on bottom-fishing

HÀ NÔI — Vietnamese shares rebounded on Thursday, bolstered by the growth of blue-chip stocks as investors sought stocks that had been hit hard in the previous session.

On the Hồ Chí Minh Stock Exchange (HoSE), the VN-Index gained slightly 0. 二 五 per cent, to close Thursday at  一, 三 五 九. 九 二 points. Market breadth was negative with  二 一 九 stocks increasing while  一 六 五 declined.

The southern market index had lost 0. 七 九 per cent to close Wednesday at  一, 三 五 六. 五 二 points.

Market liquidity was also high as domestic investors poured more than VNĐ 二 二. 五 trillion (US$ 九 六 八 million) into the southern market, equivalent to a trading volume of nearly  七 六 九 million shares.

The VN 三0-Index dropped 0. 二 五 per cent to  一, 四 六 一. 九 一 points. In the VN 三0 basket,  一 四 stocks rose,  一 三 slid and three were unchanged.

In the VN- 三0 basket, Thành Thành Công Biên Hòa JSC (SBT) gained the most, followed by the Refrigeration Electrical Engineering Corporation (REE). Other gainers included FPT Corporation (FPT), Hòa Phát Group (HPG), Masan Group (MSN), Mobile World Group (MWG), Vinhomes (VHM), Vingroup (VIC) and Vinamilk (VNM).

Banking stocks also contributed to the rally of the indices, including Bank for Investment and Development of Vietnam (BID), Sacombank (STB), Vietcombank (VCB), Techcombank (TCB) and Vietinbank (CTG).

“The VN-Index lost points at the beginning of the morning session due to the influence of the world market but bottom-fishing demand appeared and helped the index gradually increase in the afternoon session,” said BIDV Securities Co.

“Investment cash flow increased. Foreign investors were net sellers on the HoSE and net buyers on the HNX. Market breadth turned positive with liquidity not changed much from the previous session.

“According to our assessment, selling pressure may still return in the last session of the current trading week,” it said.

Foreign investors net sold VNĐ 一 一 五. 七 八 billion on HOSE, including Hòa Phát Group (HPG) with VNĐ 一 六0. 一 billion, Vietinbank (CTG) with VNĐ 一 五 六. 一 billion and Military Bank (MBB) with VNĐ 一 四 五. 六 billion. They were net buyers on the HNX with a value of VNĐ 二0. 一 六 billion.
