HÀ NỘI — Markets plunged on Friday, reversing the morning course as rising selling force weigh on the general sentiment.
On the Hồ Chí Minh Stock Exchange (HoSE), the VN-Index fell by 13.56 points, or 0.92 per cent, to close the session at 1,458.56 points.

The manufacturing sector experienced mixed fortunes with two-fifths of stocks holding steady. While big names like Hòa Phát Group (HPG), Masan Group (MSN) and GELEX Group (GEX) lost value, Vietnam Rubber Group (GVR), Vietnam Dairy Products (VNM) and Saigon Beer (SAB) inched higher thanks to bullish sentiment.

The securities firm hoped that uplifts to investors’ sentiment would come soon to help the VN-Index recover to its resistance levels.
Foreign investors dumped nearly VNĐ53.14 billion of shares. They net sold VNĐ157.97 billion on HNX while net bought VNĐ104.83 billion on the southern bourse. — VnExpress News
