1Q25 PBT recorded solid growth, driven by a significant increase in non-interest income • Consolidated PBT in 1Q25 reached over VND 5.3 trillion (+31% QoQ, +33% YoY), fulfilling 26% of the full-year PBT target (VND 21.2 trillion).

HAX - MG development and land transaction are the key focus in H2-2025

MOVING FORWARD

The market continued its upward trend, and despite a cooling-off period during the session, it managed to hold onto high price levels by the end of trading. Liquidity decreased compared to the previous session, indicating that profit-taking supply is showing signs of cooling down after the strong contention in the 1,420 – 1,430 point area. This attempted rally could help the market continue to achieve new highs in the near future. However, it's expected that supply will increase again as the ma...

6PM Call: The 1,000-point psychological level

The cash flow witnessed the bottom-fishing actions, waiting for the recovery. However, the price trend has not improved and caused investors to fear buying high-price areas. Therefore, the market has not yet confirmed the rescue and still faces a profound downside risk. If the support level around 1,000 +/- 10 points cannot boost VN-Index to rebound, the index may need to return to the support zone around 970.
