Following a strong August, the Vietnamese equity market entered September facing resistance near the 1,850 to 1,900 point range. On September 3, the VN-Index closed slightly lower at 1,827.72, reflecting divergent trends: Vingroup (VIC) reached a record market capitalization of 1.9 quadrillion VND, while major banking stocks like VCB, TCB, and VPB faced pressure. During this period, foreign investors recorded a net sell-off exceeding 1,562 billion VND across three exchanges. Market volatility persisted into early September. On September 7, the VN-Index initially surged by 17 points toward the 1,850 mark, but intense selling pressure caused a reversal. The index ultimately fell by 3.32 points, or 0.18%, to close at 1,827 points. ~~While some industrial and banking stocks like HPG, VCB, and TCB saw gains, others such as VHM and various securities stocks declined.~~ By September 9, the VN-Index closed at 1,827.12 points. ~~Despite a significant 5.6% rise in August that boosted open-ended equity funds—with some recording monthly returns exceeding 10%—analysts remain cautious.

Analysts suggest the index may continue to fluctuate or test support levels between 1,765 and 1,810 points. Uncertainty is being driven by rising US Treasury yields, the upcoming Federal Reserve policy meeting, and the anticipated FTSE Russell market upgrade effective September 21.
