Shares jumped on Monday with the VN-Index breaching the threshold 1,200 point-level again, while foreign investors also returned to the southern market.

UpCOM is considered a potential investment channel for capital inflow, with eight representatives from the billion-dollar market capitalisation club on the stock market, as well as many stocks of large and leading enterprises in different fields.

Although Việt Nam faces huge macroeconomic instability this year, analysts believe that the stock channel is still attractive.

Shares ended a turbulent week lower as investors remained cautious, while strong net selling from foreign investors also weighed on sentiment.

Strong liquidity lifted the Vietnamese stock market on Thursday, with the benchmark VN-Index bouncing nearly 17 points. Foreign capital inflow also supported the sentiment.

The market finished lower on Wednesday as selling force got stronger in the afternoon session, weighing on stocks across all sectors.

All measures will be taken to put the KRX system into operation at the end of this year, said Nguyễn Thị Việt Hà, Acting Chairman of the Hồ Chí Minh Stock Exchange (HoSE).
