News about VIC

VN-Index reversed from a strong early rally to close 16 points lower in the first session of the week, finishing below 1,690 points, its lowest in nearly 3 months and more than 12% below its record high of 1,927 points. Selling pressure focused on banks, with VIC down nearly 4% and pulling the index down more than 13 points, while oil and gas stocks such as PVT, BSR and GAS rose about 1-2% and helped limit the decline. Liquidity reached over VND 13,000 billion, and foreign investors extended their net selling to 19 consecutive sessions, buying about VND 1,400 billion against sales of about VND 2,200 billion. MBS said seasonality is driving the market, as October has historically been the weakest period of the year, and Q3 earnings may not be enough to create a broad ripple effect. TPS sees the index nearing long-term support around 1,685 points, with any sustained recovery depending on improved liquidity.

In an interview, Dr. Bùi Quang Tuấn, former director of the Vietnam Institute of Economics, reviews the 2026 localisation and supplier development conference organised by Vingroup and VinFast, which drew nearly 1,000 businesses and signals an industrial ecosystem led by a flagship firm. He argues that this leadership gives Vietnamese suppliers room to upgrade technology, improve their position in global value chains and compete internationally. Long-term commitments such as 12 to 24-month volume forecasts and land-rent incentives help smaller firms feel confident about large investments. He points to three opportunities: market expansion through VinFast's production sites in several countries, technology upgrading, and wider spillover to other businesses.
