Shares settled down on the last trading day of the week as investors returned to profit-taking activities, while foreign investors continued to net sell on the market.

Viet Nam’s stock market closed higher on Thursday, boosted by gains of many large-cap stocks across all sectors. However, the market liquidity continued to drop.
