Stock market soars with Vingroup shares.
The stock market continued its upward trend in the morning session of April 1st, led by Vingroup and financial services stocks.
The VN-Index opened the new week with a slight increase, bringing the index to 1,674.49 points, up 11.95 points, or 0.72%. In terms of sector performance, banking stocks played a major role in maintaining the market's score, while the real estate sector showed significant divergence.
At the end of the morning trading session, the market's early upward momentum continued, driven by strong gains in Vingroup and banking services stocks. The VN-Index rose 30.41 points to 1,704.9 points (+1.82%) compared to the previous session. Similarly, the HNX-Index increased by 252.72 points (+0.69%), equivalent to 1.74 points, and the UPCoM-Index rose to 127.64 points (+0.97%), equivalent to 1.22 points.
Investors' attention was focused on the real estate sector, with DXG (+1.72%), CEO (+0.6%), NLG (+3.26%), and DIG (+1.05%). Particularly noteworthy were the three Vingroup stocks: VIC (+4.89%), VRE (+4.27%), and VHM (+6.99%), all reaching their upper limits.
In the financial services group, SSI (+4.06%), VCI (+2.81%), SHS (+4.79%), VIX (+3%), and HCM (+3.52%) saw gains. Similarly, in the banking group, BID (+1.4%), MBB (+1.32%), VPB (+1.5%), ACB (+1.27%), and CTG (+0.43%) also performed well.
The food and beverage group included MSN (+1.06%), VNM (+1.98%), BAF (+0.43%), HAG (+0.3%), and PAN (+0.95%). The chemical group included GVR (+3.31%), DGC (+1.2%), VTZ (+0.5%), DPR (+0.75%), and BFC (+0.36%).
Meanwhile, red dominated many stocks in the oil and gas sector, including BSR (-2.17%), PVS (-0.24%), OIL (-1.92%), and PVC (-0.58%).
According to statistics, no stocks in the VN30 group recorded a decline; only one stock, SHB, fell to its reference price. Market liquidity reached VND 11,673.16 billion with over 436,000 shares traded.
From a technical perspective, experts at the Securities Company believe that the VN-Index has returned to its recovery trajectory after the correction of the previous session, and the slightly improved trading volume indicates that investor sentiment has become more optimistic.
The closing price above the 200-day moving average (1,660 points) indicates that the long-term upward trend of the VN-index is still being maintained since May 2025.
In the short term, the market has likely passed its most risky phase. Based on this, the VN-Index is expected to continue its upward momentum in the next session, aiming for the resistance zone around 1,740 points, an area the index previously tested but failed to break through.
Regarding today's market, experts from Kien Thiet Vietnam Securities Company commented that, looking at the monthly chart, the VN-Index closed March with a sharp decline (-10.95%) but increased liquidity (the trading volume in March increased by 20.4% compared to the 20-month average), indicating that the upward trend of the previous four consecutive months has stalled.
Currently, the VN-Index is showing signs of recovery after holding firm at the psychological 1,600-point mark, but the momentum is quite weak as liquidity in the last three weeks has been lower than the 20-day average.
Therefore, this recovery trend, from a short-term perspective, will likely be a way to regain balance after the volatile month of March.
The expectation is that the recovery will push the VN-Index up to the 1,770-1,790 point range in April, before returning to a correction phase.
Therefore, investors continue to maintain their portfolio holding strategy and expand their positions, increasing their weighting in profitable stock portfolios during market fluctuations.
