On the Hồ Chí Minh Stock Exchange (HoSE), the VN-Index rose strongly by 1.12 per cent to close at 1,185.90 points.
It had previously lost 0.01 per cent to close Thursday at 1,172.81 points.
More stocks added points, helping lift investors' sentiment. On the southern bourse, 348 stocks advanced, while only 120 inched lower. Liquidity also improved, with trading value on the HoSE reaching more than VNĐ20 trillion (US$845.4 million), equivalent to a trading volume of 988 million shares.
“It is likely that the market will continue to be supported and recover to retest the supply around 1,190 points.
Therefore, investors still need to observe market movements to assess the power of cash flow. It is possible to continue holding stocks with good signals from the accumulation base or buy stocks that retreat to the support base,” said Việt Dragon Securities Co.
“However, it is still necessary to consider taking profits for stocks that have increased rapidly to the resistance zone or are under selling pressure to rebalance the portfolio,” it said.
The index extended rallies on the back of large-cap stocks. Accordingly, the VN30-Index, tracking the 30 biggest stocks on HoSE, jumped 1.57 per cent, to 1,186.60 points.
In the VN30 basket, 25 stocks edged higher with two stocks hitting ceiling prices, while only four stocks declined.
