KLF Investment (KLF) was the most active stock, with over 11 million shares exchanged, closing the session up 3.5 per cent.
The market was supported by a decline in the consumer price index (CPI) in October. CPI in HCM City fell 0.03 per cent compared to September, bringing the total increase in the first 10 months to 2.38 per cent. In the previous four years, CPI rose in October.
Global market swings were currently negatively affecting the domestic market, according to Maybank KimEng Securities Co‘s head of investment strategy Phan Dung Khanh.
“While short-term investors may be affected, it’s an opportunity for medium- and long-term investors to grab good stocks,” he said. “The trend of October is cumulation, levelling off and slightly increasing by the end of the month, preparing for a rebound in November.”
Khanh also advocated shares of logistics, securities, mineral companies and financial investment stocks such as FIT Investment (FIT),
Tri Viet (TVC) and CEO Group (CEO). Foreign investors concluded yesterday as net buyers by VND55.9 billion ($2.6 million), ending their seven-day period of selling. – VNS
