VN-Index sets record of 8 increasing sessions, firmly above 1,610 points

Continuing the excitement from yesterday, this morning's trading session (August 13), VN-Index opened in green, challenging the resistance zone of 1,610 - 1,620 points. However, when the index approached the 1,615 - 1,620 point zone, profit-taking selling pressure occurred massively, pushing VN-Index to lose nearly 28 points, falling below the 1,590 point mark.

The demand, mainly from the real estate group, was only enough to help the market stop its deep fall but not strong enough to pull the index back to the 1,600-point mark. At the end of the morning session, red dominated with 229 stocks falling, nearly 2.5 times the number of stocks rising (93 stocks).

Entering the afternoon trading session on August 13, right at the beginning of the session, the echo of selling pressure continued to cause the VN-Index to break through the morning bottom, reaching the lowest level of the day at 1,585.54 points. However, the waiting cash flow quickly entered the game, gathering strongly at low prices, pulling many stocks to reverse and increase. The green and red colors balanced again, the VN-Index gradually climbed, surpassed the reference and closed with a slight increase but importantly surpassed the resistance of 1,610 points.

At the end of the session, VN-Index increased by 3.38 points (+0.21%), reaching 1,611.6 points; the number of codes increasing and decreasing was almost equal (164 increased, 165 decreased). Liquidity exploded with 1.95 billion shares, worth VND55,917.8 billion, up 17% and 23% respectively compared to yesterday; negotiated transactions accounted for 78.5 million units, worth VND2,206.6 billion.

Many forecasts suggest that the market may be upgraded by FTSE in the September review, thereby creating more momentum to surpass the 1,610 - 1,620 point range. MA5 at 1,597 points is currently the nearest support level.
