MARKET OVERVIEW

1. Stock Market

• Vietnam Market:
  The market is receiving solid support as it retraces to the MA20 region around 1,645 points and rebounds upward. Liquidity has slightly improved compared to the previous session, showing that supply pressure is still limited while capital inflows continue to provide support. After the reversal recovery signal around 1,600 points on November 12, 2025, the market has confirmed a breakout above MA20, reinforcing the short-term bullish trend. Any pullbacks are likely to attract supportive buying. The next resistance zone is around MA50 near 1,668 points.

• U.S. Market:
  On November 18, 2025, major U.S. indices declined: the S&P 500 dropped 0.8% to 6,617.32 points, the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 1.1% to 46,091.74 points, and the Nasdaq Composite lost 1.2% to 22,432.85 points. Pressure came from sell-offs in major tech stocks such as Nvidia ahead of earnings, along with concerns about the Federal Reserve's rate-cut outlook.

2. Forex

• USD/JPY: Downtrend. Selling opportunities today with daily resistance at 155.600.

• GBP/USD: Uptrend. Buying opportunities today with daily support at 1.31300.

3. Gold

Gold prices are showing signs of weakening as the U.S. dollar rebounds strongly, temporarily reducing safe-haven demand. If gold fails to hold support around ~$4,000/oz, the risk of further correction remains high.

4. Oil

• XTI/USD: Uptrend. Continue adding buy positions, daily support at 60.00.

5. Crypto – BTC

BTC continues to move sideways below the key resistance around ~$95,000. Selling pressure is increasing and investor sentiment has shifted from “waiting” to “fear.” The ~$90,000 support zone is crucial for determining the next directional move.
