Deep discount due to broken "pillar"

Deep discount due to broken "pillar"

In recent trading sessions, the market has fluctuated strongly and depended on key pillars such as VIC, VCB, VHM. The health of the VN-Index is completely “in the hands” of these blue-chips. The stock market session on May 19 was no exception. When the “pillars” fluctuated, the VN-Index fell quite deeply.

At the close of the May 19 stock market session, VN-Index fell 1.24 points, or 0.12%, to 1,067.07 points; VN30-Index fell 1.92 points, or 0.18%, to 1,068.84 points. The entire floor recorded only 168 stocks increasing in price, 50 stocks remaining unchanged, and 212 stocks decreasing in price.

Liquidity increased sharply and continued to stand at a high level in the stock market session on May 19. Up to 755 million shares, equivalent to VND 13,361 billion, were successfully transferred. Notably, cash flow mainly poured into small and medium-sized stocks and "stayed away" from blue-chips. Therefore, the VN30 group recorded only 139 million shares, equivalent to VND 3,699 billion, successfully bought and sold. This is a very low level.
