MARKET OVERVIEW

1. Stock Market

Vietnam Market:
The market is experiencing strong fluctuations around the resistance zone of 1,340 points – the previous peak in March 2025. Despite rising profit-taking pressure, especially from foreign investors, liquidity remains stable, helping maintain the uptrend. In upcoming sessions, the market will continue to test the 1,340 resistance level. If supply pressure is well absorbed, the uptrend may continue and expand further.

U.S. Market:
Strong recovery with Dow Jones up 1.78%, S&P 500 up 2.05%, and Nasdaq up 2.47%, thanks to news that President Trump is delaying tariffs on EU goods and a strong increase in consumer confidence index. Falling bond yields also supported the market. Investors should continue monitoring upcoming earnings reports and inflation data to assess the next trend.

2. Forex

  • EUR/USD: Downtrend. Selling positions can be considered today. Daily resistance: 1.13350

  • AUD/USD: Downtrend. Selling positions can be considered today. Daily resistance: 0.64500

3. Gold

Spot gold prices have also declined, currently hovering around $3,303.9 - $3,308.94 USD/ounce. Gold futures are trading around $3,300 USD/ounce. The bullish trend in gold is weakening due to Trump’s postponement of tariffs on the EU.

4. Oil

XTI/USD: Short-term downtrend. Selling positions can be considered today. Daily resistance: 61.50

5. Crypto

Bitcoin is currently trading around $109,077.20 USD. The current market capitalization is approximately $2,167.45 billion USD. Analysts believe Bitcoin is trading within an ascending channel. The current resistance level is around $94,500 (though the price has already surpassed this level). Sustaining above this zone could pave the way for further gains.
