Accordingly, VIC alone contributed 21.13 points (equivalent to 1.13%) to the index's rise; VHM contributed 6.88 points (0.37%), and VRE contributed 0.66 points (0.03%). Notably, all three of these stocks are among the top 5 stocks with the greatest influence on the index.

According to experts at Kien Thiet Vietnam Securities Company, the VN-Index had a positive trading week in terms of points, but anxiety resurfaced once again as the upward momentum relied heavily on VIC, neglecting the rest of the market which was struggling.
Despite the unpredictable market conditions, investors should maintain their current portfolios and avoid being swayed by price fluctuations from large-cap stocks, while refraining from investing in companies with strong fundamentals and positive growth potential in the coming quarters.
For increased buying opportunities, investors should wait for the general index to cool down to discounted price levels in order to secure a safe position.
According to experts at Vietcombank Securities Company, the developments in today's session are typical when the market is approaching a holiday.
At the same time, cash flow showed a clear differentiation among industry groups, concentrating on stocks with unique stories or positive business results in the first quarter of 2026.
Investors are advised to take advantage of intraday corrections and fluctuations to make exploratory investments in certain sectors that have formed bases at deep discount levels or have just begun to break out from those bases, such as real estate, construction, and banking.
