Vietinbank Securities has published the Weekly Investment Strategy Report on 3rd June, 2024 with the executive summary presented below:
- According to the General Statistics Office, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) in May 2024 increased by 0.05% compared to the previous month. On average, in the first five months of 2024, the CPI rose by 4.03% compared to the same period last year, and the core inflation increased by 2.78%. The core inflation rate of 2.78% compared to the same period in 2023 is lower than the general average CPI increase (4.03%), mainly due to the impact of prices of food, fuel, educational services, and healthcare services, which are excluded from the core inflation calculation.
- Over the past week, the VN-Index recorded a slight decrease of 0.02%, making it the least declining index in the monitored basket. Notably, capital flows remain quite cautious as liquidity and average transaction value per session dropped significantly compared to the previous week, reaching 898 million shares and 21,934 billion VND, respectively. By sector, the strongest capital inflows were recorded in tourism and entertainment stocks (5.45%) and chemicals (3.88%).
- With capital flows continuing to show caution and investor sentiment somewhat affected by negative developments in the global stock market, it is forecasted that the market will continue to accumulate and move sideways within the range of 1,240 – 1,275 points during the week of June 3rd to June 7th, 2024. Investors are advised to maintain a stock/cash ratio of 60%
- Investors should be cautious about making new purchases of stocks that have already exhausted their upward potential and are preparing to take profits from this group of stocks. Instead, they should only buy new stocks that still have upward potential and their own growth story.
