Foreign investors reduced their net selling pace on March 9 even as the VN-Index suffered its sharpest one-day decline by absolute value in history. The session saw the index drop by more than 115 points, falling below the 1,700-point mark, amid escalating tensions in the Middle East that pressured domestic markets.
Despite the broad sell-off, foreigners showed signs of cutting net selling compared with prior sessions. Net selling was around 275 billion dong.
The most heavily sold stocks included VHM (176 billion dong), FPT (161 billion dong), and STB (around 160 billion dong).
On the buy side, foreign inflows were concentrated in MWG (139 billion dong) and VNM (120 billion dong). SHS ranked third with a net buy of 107 billion dong.
On a year-to-date basis, foreigners have net sold more than 21,000 billion dong across the market. By stock, FPT remained the most heavily sold at 8.6 trillion dong, followed by VHM at 4.18 trillion dong.
In contrast, HPG was the largest net buy on the year with more than 5 trillion dong, while MBB ranked second with about 4.3 trillion dong.
Self-trading by brokerages turned to net buying, recording net 204 billion dong on HOSE and ending a four-session net-selling streak.
Unlike the continued foreign selling, self-trading bought FPT by about 50 billion dong, HPG by 46 billion dong, and VIC by about 30 billion dong.
On the selling side, self-trading disposed of MBB the most at 56 billion dong, followed by VPB at 45 billion dong and ETF FUEVFVND at around 16 billion dong.
