HÀ NỘI — Shares reversed course to end lower on Tuesday, pressured by the selling force hitting a series of large-cap stock groups at the final minutes of the trading session.

On the Hồ Chí Minh Stock Exchange (HoSE), the VN-Index lost 0. 八 六 per cent to close at  一,0 八0. 二 九 points. The index had gained  一. 二0 per cent on Monday.

Market breadth was negative with  一 三 八 gainers and  三 七 八 decliners.

Some  六 三 四. 五 billion shares were traded on the southern exchange, worth VNĐ 一 二. 六 trillion (US$ 五 一 七. 七 million).

The market approaches the level of  一,0 八0 -  一, 一00 points. Cash flow is gradually becoming cautious, shown by reduced liquidity compared to the previous  二 sessions, according to Việt Dragon Securities Co.

"With the pressure of the resistance, it is possible that the market will encounter difficulties when approaching  一, 一00 points, and the risk of retreating still exists. Therefore, investors should slow down and observe supply and demand at the resistance to evaluate the market. Temporarily, it is necessary to consider the market's recovery ability to take profits or restructure the portfolio to reduce risks."

The VN 三0-Index, which tracks the performance of the  三0 largest stocks by market capitalisation and liquidity on HoSE, dropped 0. 九 八 per cent to reach  一,0 九 二. 七 一 points. In the basket, two stocks climbed, two stayed flat and  二 六 slid.

Losers in the VN- 三0 basket included Vinamilk (VNM), Vietjet (VJC) and Sabeco (SAB).

Energy stocks were also hit by selling pressure with losers such as Drilling Mud Joint Stock Corporation (PVC), PetroVietnam Drilling and Well Services Corporation (PVD), PetroVietnam Technical Services Corporation (PVS) and PV OIL (OIL).

On a sector basis,  二 三 out of  二 五 sector indices on the stock market lost ground, including wholesale, construction, rubber production, IT and logistics, agriculture, food and beverage, seafood production, and plastic and chemical production.

The HNX-Index on the Hà Nội Stock Exchange (HNX) lost 0. 五 九 per cent to close Tuesday at  二 一 八. 二 九 points.
