“The Market Spring Is Over-Compressed – Gold Plunges, Bitcoin Free-Falls!”

Release time: 10:00, November 17, 2025
Issued by: Mr. Leon


MARKET OVERVIEW

1. Stock Market

– Vietnam Market:
The market continues to fluctuate and test levels but still closed in the green, showing that supply pressure is not too heavy even as the index approaches the MA(20). The reversal signal at the 1,600 level on 12/11 remains valid, supporting a stable trend. The consolidation phase is expected to continue, but the market still has support and may move toward the MA(20) at around 1,650 to retest supply pressure. If liquidity stays positive and absorption is good, a new upward wave may form.

– U.S. Market:
U.S. markets showed mixed movements: S&P 500 fell about 0.1% to 6,734.11. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 309.74 points (-0.7%) to 47,147.48. Meanwhile, the Nasdaq Composite edged up 0.1% to 22,900.59. Key focus remained on tech stocks such as Nvidia, which temporarily led the recovery, while rising U.S. Treasury yields and doubts over Fed rate-cut expectations made investors more cautious.
