MARKET OVERVIEW

1. Stock Market

– Vietnam Market:
The market maintains its uptrend and has moved above the MA20 near 1,645 points. Liquidity improved slightly, indicating selling pressure is not significant and capital inflows remain supportive. The reversal signal at the 1,600 zone (12/11) remains valid. In the coming sessions, the market may continue rising but will likely face volatility near the MA50 around 1,668 points; corrections are expected to be supported by inflows.

– U.S. Market:
On November 17, 2025, major U.S. indices declined: S&P 500 dropped 0.9% (-61.70 pts) closing at 6,672.41; Dow Jones fell 1.2% (-557.24 pts) to 46,590.24; Nasdaq Composite lost 0.8% (-192.51 pts) closing at 22,708.07.
