Overview before the April 29th session
The Vietnamese stock market entered the April 29th session on positive terms after the strong gains of the previous session, amidst continued divergence in capital flows based on corporate news. Data up to April 28th, 2026 shows the VN-Index at 1,875.8 points, up 1.2% , thus maintaining the short-term recovery trend.
The other two indices also remained stable: the HNX-Index stood at 249.4 points and the UPCOM-Index at 127.7 points. This indicates that investor sentiment is not heavily skewed towards any single group of stocks, but rather is selectively choosing stocks based on specific catalysts.
Overnight news had a strong impact on the morning session's performance.
| Code | News | Expected impact |
|---|---|---|
| VIC | First quarter results increased 2.5 times. | On a positive note, this could continue to attract capital inflows. |
| L14 | Profits in Q1/2026 decreased by more than 82%. | Negative factors are putting pressure on price movements. |
| PLX | Expected losses of over 1,000 billion VND. | Negative, risk continues to weaken. |
Amidst strong market divergence, VIC stands out as a bright spot thanks to significantly improved business results, thereby reinforcing expectations of support for related stocks. Conversely, L14 and PLX are sending unfavorable signals and are likely to continue facing downward pressure if the market reacts according to the momentum from the news.
Technical analysis: the 1,880 level is a resistance point to watch.
Technically, the VN-Index is approaching the short-term resistance zone of 1,880–1,885 points. This zone needs to be decisively conquered to confirm whether the rebound can extend into a new uptrend.
Conversely, the nearest support zone is at 1,860–1,865 points, acting as an important buffer if the market experiences early-session volatility. For the VN30 index, the 2,030 point mark remains the level to maintain to consolidate the recovery.
Key stocks and technical signals
The list of stocks with good technical signals in the data shows a preference leaning towards stocks with high composite scores and a consensus upward trend. Notable among them are SMT , SJG , CTD , MSH , and TYA , many of which are approaching short-term resistance levels.
- TYA has a composite score of 77.5 , with both EMA and MACD trends showing positive movements.
- MSH reached 74.0 points, maintaining a strong price base and good momentum.
- TLD recorded 73.5 points, indicating that the technical outlook remains positive.
- CTD is at 72.2 points, making it a noteworthy stock if the money flow continues to spread.
- QNP reached 71.5 points, maintaining a relatively stable price trend.
For these stocks, approaching short-term resistance will determine their ability to sustain the upward momentum. If the overall market remains stable around the support zone, stocks with high technical scores are likely to remain the focus of the session.

Short-term scenario for the April 29th session
The base scenario is that the market opens with a tug-of-war but leaning towards a positive trend, thanks to the index maintaining a high level and general sentiment showing no clear signs of weakening. However, pressure for volatility will increase if the VN-Index does not decisively break through the 1,880–1,885 point range.
In the short term, investors should continue to monitor price reactions around the VN-Index support zone of 1,860–1,865 points, while also observing developments in corporate news such as VIC , L14 , and PLX . If the money flow remains stable and the group of stocks with high technical scores continues to be supported, the current rebound is likely to continue.
