Market outlook
Stock market: At the beginning of the session, the VNIndex rose quickly above the 1200 points, but the pressure of taking profit gradually reduced points but still ended the session above 1190. Cash flow declined with 9 out of 19 sectors gaining points. In addition, foreign investors continued to be net sellers on both exchanges, the HSX and HNX. Besides, market breadth turned to sideways status and the liquidity was not much different from the previous session. According to our assessment, the VNIndex may experience declines after a long period of hot increases this week.
Futures: All future contracts dropped in agreement with the general trend of the index. Investors should prioritize selling with target price around 1185 points for long-term contracts.
Covered Warrant: In the trading session on January 18th 2021, covered warrants and underlying stocks had a differentiation in status. Trading value increased compared to the previous session.
