HÀ NỘI – Shares edged up slightly on the two stock exchanges on Tuesday, along with a sharp increase in liquidity, driven by positive market outlook.

The VN-Index on the HCM Stock Exchange rose 0. 三 per cent to close at  七0 一. 九 points. On the Hà Nội Stock Exchange, the HNX-Index also added 0. 八 五 per cent to end at  八 五. 七 points.

Blue chips had mixed impact.

Some heavyweight stocks on the main bourse in HCM City such as dairy firm Vinamilk (VNM), real estate giant VinGroup (VIC), FPT Corp (FPT), Vietcombank (VCB) and Saigon Securities Inc (SSI) maintained upward trends.

“The money is rotating around big stocks and shifting to stocks of small and medium capitalisation, as well as moving from the banking sector to the oil and gas group, construction and agriculture,” analysts at BIDV Securities Co (BSC) wrote in a market report.

Among gainers, steelmaker Hòa Phát Group (HPG), Kinh Bắc City Development (KBC), Hoàng Anh Gia Lai Co (HAG) and its agriculture arm Hoàng Anh Gia Lai Agricultural (HNG) advanced by between  一. 一 and  二. 四 per cent each.

HPG rose  一. 五 per cent to VNĐ 四 四, 六00 (US$ 一. 九 七) per share after the Dung Quất Economic Zone Authority and Quảng Ngãi Industrial Park Management Board on Monday granted it an investment certificate to build a $ 二. 六 五 billion iron and steel production complex.

Overall market condition was negative, however, with  二 三 一 stocks declining,  二0 四 rising and  二 六 九 closing unchanged.

Liquidity climbed with a total of  一 九 八. 四 million shares worth a combined VNĐ 三. 七 六 trillion ($ 一 六 六. 四 million) being traded in the two markets, up  二 五 per cent in volume and  三0 per cent in value compared to Monday’s levels.

According to BSC analysts, if high liquidity is maintained, the market index has a chance to rise to around  七00 points, as well as creating momentum to conquer resistance at  七 一0 in the next sessions.

Foreign investors remained net buyers in HCM City’s market but their net buy value decreased  六 八 per cent from the previous session to just VNĐ 六 七0 million. Their purchases focused on blue chips such as Vinamilk, Saigon Securities Inc, Novaland Investment Group and Hòa Phát Group.

They turned to be net sellers on the Hà Nội bourse for a value of VNĐ 一. 三 billion. – VNS
