Boost from global trade

Release Time: 10:00 AM, July 24, 2025

Issued by: Ms. Jenny

MARKET OVERVIEW

  1. Stock Market:

  • Vietnam Market: The market continued to rise but showed signs of cooling down around the 1,520-point zone due to short-term profit-taking pressure, although increased liquidity indicates continued cash inflow support. The sideways trend is expected to persist in the next session; however, with the current upward trend and buying momentum, the market still has a chance to rebound on corrections.

  • US Market: The US market continued its rally on July 23 as all three major indexes posted strong gains, with the S&P 500 reaching 6,358.91 points (+0.78%) and the Nasdaq hitting a new high at 21,020.02 points (+0.61%). The boost came from news of a trade agreement between the US and Japan to reduce auto tariffs, along with expectations of expansion to the EU, which pushed cash flows into industrial and technology stocks. Market sentiment remained optimistic with high liquidity and a sharp drop in the VIX, while investors await earnings reports from major companies like Tesla and Alphabet.
