BSC Brief | 01.12: The upward move lacks breadth

MARKET OUTLOOK
The VN-Index jumped as soon as the morning session opened; however, the upward momentum stalled as the index approached the 1,715 level. After a day of choppy trading, the VN-Index closed at 1,701.67 points, up nearly 11 points from yesterday. Nine out of eighteen sectors advanced, with Travel & Leisure, Industrials, and Real Estate continuing to rise by more than 2%. Foreign investors were net sellers across all three exchanges—HSX, HNX, and UPCOM. The candlestick with a long upper shadow indicates that profit-taking pressure emerged as the VN-Index broke above the 1,700 resistance. At the same time, the index’s upward move lacks broad-based confirmation as liquidity continues to weaken. In the coming sessions, volatility may occur around the 1,700 level, and investors are advised to trade cautiously.

FUTURES CONTRACTS
Futures contracts all increased according to the movement of VN30.
