The VN-Index on May 7, 2026 cleared the 1,900-point threshold and briefly rose to a record high above 1,920 points. At the close, the VN-Index increased by more than 17 points to 1,909 points. The HoSE market recorded 119 gainers and 191 decliners, with 10 stocks reaching the daily limit up. The index officially surpassed 1,900 points after multiple unsuccessful attempts in previous sessions. In the afternoon, the VN-Index climbed as high as 1,924 points, the highest level in history.
Total market liquidity reached over 31.7 trillion dong, with HoSE accounting for over 30 trillion dong, up about 26%.
On HoSE, the number of decliners exceeded gainers, indicating that while the index pushed higher, breadth remained mixed.
In real estate, VHM hit the ceiling and VIC rose more than 2%, supporting the index. However, several other real estate stocks weakened, including NVL, VRE, PDR, CEO, KBC, and DXG.
The industrial group saw mixed trading. GEX and GEE reached the ceiling, while CTD fell to the floor in the ATC session despite being green for most of the day. By the close, CTD had a residual sell order at the floor price of more than 300,000 shares. Other industrial names such as VCG, CII, PC1, HHV, DPG, HAH closed in the red.
In financials, STB hit the ceiling. HDB rose 3.4% and LPB rose 3.6%. Several other stocks remained green, including MSB, VIX, MBB, CTG, and VPB. In contrast, VCB, BID, TCB and most securities stocks faced downward pressure.
Energy stocks remained a drag, with most names extending declines from the morning session. By close, BSR, PVT, OIL, PVP, PVC, PVS, and PVD fell 2–5%.
The HNX-Index fell by 0.70 point (-0.28%) to 247.76 points, reflecting clearer selling pressure. Meanwhile, the UPCoM-Index stayed in the green, up 0.16 point to 127.81 points.
Earlier, experts noted that the VN-Index has room to move toward the next resistance around 1,925 points. In the near term, upward momentum is likely to be sustained in subsequent sessions. However, as the index approaches higher resistance levels, profit-taking pressure could increase, potentially leading to technical fluctuations.
With the index expected to trade within a range of 1,865–1,925 points, the suggested approach is “Buy at support – Sell at resistance” (swing trading), taking profits in parts as the VN-Index nears the 1,925-point resistance if demand does not improve.
