Investment comments
KB Securities Vietnam (KBSV) : It is likely that the VN-Index will continue to be under pressure to fluctuate in the coming sessions as the buyers are still somewhat more passive and the risk of large distribution sessions still needs to be noted if the index experiences strong bulltrap sessions.
Investors are advised to avoid chasing buying during uptrends and prioritize restructuring portfolio proportions to safe levels.
Asean Securities (Aseansc) : The market's performance up to now is reasonable, however, short-term risks still exist when "bulltrap" movements appear in the following sessions.
Therefore, Aseansc maintains its recommendation that investors be cautious, stop opening new purchases and wait for profit taking in the current context.
Vietcombank Securities (VCBS) : In a positive scenario, VN-Index will adjust and accumulate sideways, but the probability of strong fluctuations may still occur.
VCBS recommends that investors take profits from stocks that have recorded good growth recently, maintaining a reasonable stock weight of below 60% to be able to manage short-term risks to the maximum.
