Weekly Market Wrap — Feb 24, 2020
Yuanta Vietnam Weekly Market Round-Up-Feb 24
The market was broadly flat during the week ending Feb 21, with the VNI in a closing range of 928-938. Average turnover of the three main indexes rose by 3% WoW, with ADT peaking on Friday at US$161m. Breadth was roughly even on the VNI, with 188 gainers and 167 losers. Our sense is that the post-Tet shock has eased, but only slightly. Given the epidemiological uncertainties surrounding the coronavirus, restarting infrastructure projects could help to mitigate its negative economic effects. | |
