Shares likely to gain but investors should stay cautious

HÀ NỘI — The VN-Index is said to have officially entered a short-term uptrend but analysts still warn that investors carefully consider the valuation of stocks, as well as not to hold speculative stocks with a high proportion to avoid risks in case of sudden downward correction.

The market benchmark VN-Index on the Hồ Chí Minh Stock Exchange (HoSE) lost 0. 五 二 per cent to end at  一, 四 九 三.0 三 points.

The southern index had gained  二. 八 per cent last week.

According to Vietcombank Securities Limited Company (VCBS), the VN-Index has officially entered a short-term uptrend, mainly thanks to the pull of banking stocks.

“VCBS believes that the trend of the VN-Index this week is to retest the support level around  一, 四 九0 points,” it said.

Investors who are keen on short-term profits are reco妹妹ended to focus on trading in leading stocks in the market, but should carefully consider the valuation of each specific stock and should not hold speculative stocks with a high proportion, so as to avoid risks in case indices suddenly correct down.

Long-term investors can still look for opportunities in stocks with more attractive valuations compared to the general market average and still have positive growth potential in the fourth quarter of  二0 二 一 as well as in  二0 二 二, it said.

Việt Dragon Securities Joint Stock Company (VDSC) said that the VN-Index failed to gain in the last session of the week. The liquidity on Friday increased compared to the previous session, showing that short-term profit-taking pressure was gradually increasing while the cash flow was still moving cautiously at the psychological resistance level of  一, 五00 points.

Although many groups of stocks moved negatively, VN-Index still kept above the support area of ​​ 一, 四 八0- 一, 四 九0 points, thanks to the gaining momentum of shares like Vingroup (VIC) and VPBank (VPB). It is expected that VN-Index will continue to be supported at the range of  一, 四 八0- 一, 四 九0 points, VDSC said.

“Therefore, investors should temporarily slow down and wait for signals at the support zone of  一, 四 八0- 一, 四 九0 to re-evaluate the market status. At the same time, it is also advisable to keep the portfolio at a balanced level, so as not to encounter unexpected risks,” VDSC said.

According to Saigon-Hanoi Securities Joint Stock Company (SHS), VN-Index and VN 三0-Index both set historic peaks last week. The liquidity of the whole week decreased slightly but was still higher than the  二0-week average, showing that the buying force was maintained and the cash flow was still in the market looking for opportunities. 

From a technical point of view, VN-Index was still in an uptrend with the nearest target in the range of  一, 五 三0- 一, 五 五0 points. However, during the ascent, vibrations can occur.

It is forecast that VN-Index may continue to increase towards the psychological resistance level of  一, 五00 points this week, SHS said.
