Trading value on HOSE reached VND13.844 trillion, down 18% from the previous session. Across the market, 294 stocks advanced (16 hit the ceiling), 323 declined and 894 were unchanged, suggesting selective money flows after the strong start to the week. Before the open, global markets digested US October CPI rising 0.4%, above the 0.3% forecast, while the 10-year US Treasury yield briefly climbed above 5%.

Most influential stocks

Foreign investors net buyers for a second session

Foreign investors bought VND1,699.87 billion and sold VND1,647.57 billion, a net purchase of VND52.3 billion. Buying focused on VIC (VND138.77 billion), POW (VND78 billion), VHM (VND47 billion), HDB (VND42 billion), TPB (VND41.2 billion) and HPG (VND37.9 billion). On the other side, FPT saw net selling of VND48.3 billion, NVL VND39.15 billion and ACB VND35.39 billion.

Holding on to the previous session's gains despite less favourable international macro news is encouraging, although lower liquidity shows investors remain cautious at higher price levels.
