VN bourses edge up
On Jan. 12, the VN-Index inched up 0.21 per cent to close at 478.45 and continued to tread water with no apparent up or downward trend in sight. However, trading volume increased remarkably with 41.2 million worth VND1.19 trillion (US$56.7 million) changing hands, compared to an average of merely 30 million shares with a value of around VND500 billion ($23.8 million) over the past six days.
Advancers outnumbered decliners 150 to 61, while 64 remained steady.
Thirteen stocks hit their ceiling prices, including Sao Vang Rubber (SRC), De Tam (DTA), Becamex (IJC), Hamico Binh Thuan Mineral (KSA), Lilama 10 (L10), Rang Dong Lamp (RAL), and especially Vinpearl (VPL).
VPL reached its ceiling price for the fifth consecutive session and made gains for the 16th session in a row.
The HN-Index also gained 1.47 per cent to close at 106.30. In contrast with the HCM City bourse, trading volume in Ha Noi this morning decreased slightly from yesterday to 24.6 million shares, worth VND469.2 billion ($22.3 million).
The number of gainers was roughly twice the number of losers, 197 to 87, while 88 remained.
