Green dominated the market, with the VN-Index rising 2.93 points.

Opening the trading session on the morning of June 15th, after two correction sessions at the end of last week, the VN-Index quickly regained its positive momentum and soon surpassed the 1,800-point mark thanks to widespread buying pressure.

However, the recovery did not last long as large-cap stocks within the Vingroup ecosystem exerted significant pressure.

In particular, strong selling pressure on VIC and VHM caused the index to reverse and fall, despite the fact that most stocks on the board maintained their upward trend.

After more than an hour of trading, the VN-Index fell by over 12 points, while market breadth remained positive with the number of advancing stocks more than 2.5 times the number of declining stocks.

Notably, the two stocks VIC and VHM alone caused the overall index to lose nearly 21 points.

Conversely, many other sectors continued to trade favorably. Key sectors including banking, securities, and steel all performed well, with the securities sector becoming the focal point as strong demand absorbed demand, helping the entire sector rise by approximately 2.5%.

Positive sentiment spread across the financial services sector with VIX (+3.23%), SHS (+5.49%), SSI (+3.06%), VND (+4.09%), VCI (+2.33%), and MBS (+3.13%). Similarly, in the banking sector, SHS (+0.36%), VPB (+0.19%), TCB (+0.32%), VCB (+0.65%), and MBB (+1.01%) saw gains.

Meanwhile, real estate stocks such as VIC (-1.69%), VHM (-3.03%), VRE (-0.17%), TCH and KDH fell to their reference prices.

At the close of this morning's trading session, the VN-Index rose 2.93 points to 1,794.58 points (+0.16%) compared to the previous session. Market liquidity reached VND 11,759.37 billion, with 427,000 shares traded.

Across the sector, 183 stocks rose, 103 fell, and 66 dropped to their reference price.

According to experts from Asean Securities Company, VN-Index is facing the risk of short-term correction as supply pressure overwhelms it, causing the index to close at 1,803 points in the last session of the week, confirming a negative state when breaking through the MA10 and MA20 moving averages along with the weakening of momentum indicators RSI (39) and money flow MFI (22).

With the downward trend prevailing, the less favorable scenario suggests that the index is likely to continue testing the support zone of 1,800 - 1,810 points in the next session before establishing a clearer trend.

Against this backdrop, the optimal strategy for short-term investors is to prioritize risk management, reduce holdings during technical rallies, and absolutely avoid leverage. They should only consider investing when there are signs of a bottoming out accompanied by improved liquidity, focusing on stock groups with unique stories such as state divestment, market upgrades, economic development resolutions, or offshore cycles.

Meanwhile, medium- and long-term investors can take advantage of the correction to make exploratory investments in stages at medium-term support levels, prioritizing stocks with solid fundamentals and avoiding highly volatile or illiquid stock groups.

According to experts at AIS Securities Company, at the end of last week's trading, the VN-Index continued to record its fourth consecutive week of decline, extending the correction streak from mid-May to the present and officially losing the 20-week moving average (MA20) trend line.

The main support came from the banking and construction sectors, while downward pressure was present in the securities, steel, and Vingroup stock sectors.

What worries us is that overall market liquidity remains quite low. The nearest and extremely important support zone for the VN-Index is 1,740 - 1,750 points (equivalent to the 200-day moving average).

If the index holds above this level, it may experience technical rebounds. Otherwise, this short-term downtrend will likely not be over yet.
