VN-Index “evaporates” more than 42 points, down to 2-week low

In the morning session on the Ho Chi Minh City Stock Exchange, continuing the downward trend of the session on September 5, selling pressure increased, causing the floor's representative index to decrease from the beginning to the end of the session.

Banking stocks were the most affected, with 9 out of 10 stocks losing the most points belonging to this group. Although some pillar stocks such as VIC and HPG were still in the green, they could not compensate for the price declines of other large-cap stocks.

After lunch break, VN-Index stopped at 1,639.12 points, down 27.85 points (-1.67%).

In the afternoon session, the market even worsened with selling pressure increasing while bottom-fishing pressure was not enough to overwhelm supply. Therefore, the market fell further.
