HÀ NỘI Vietnamese markets rebounded yesterday thanks to the recovery of pillar stocks but liquidity remained low on cautious investor sentiment.
On the Hồ Chí Minh Stock Exchange (HoSE), the market benchmark VN-Index edged up 0.08 per cent to end at 1,476.61 points.
It had slid 0.04 per cent to end Wednesday at 1,475.50 points.
The market's breadth was negative with 209 gainers and 243 losers.
Liquidity increased compared to the previous session with 927.5 million shares traded on the southern bourse, worth nearly VNĐ27 trillion (US$1.2 billion).
“The 1,480-point mark is obviously a strong resistance level for the Vietnamese stock market. The session recorded a sideways movement of the market when the VN-Index approached this area. Besides, the market has entered a period of lacking supportive information causing the index to see a strong fluctuation,” said financial site cafef.vn.
The VN30-Index, tracking the 30 biggest stocks on HoSE, lost 0.61 per cent, to end at 1,510.17 points. Eighteen out of 30 stocks in the VN30 basket posted losses, while nine increased.
