Market to trade sideways nearly 1,250 point-level this week: experts
The VN-Index on the Hồ Chí Minh Stock Exchange (HoSE) closed last week at 1,244.7 points and the HNX-Index on the Hà Nội Stock Exchange (HNX) was last traded at 235.68 points. However, the following sessions saw a slowdown in the upward momentum, with the market trading sideways around the 1,240 - 1,250 range. Under the +/-5 per cent margin, banks are implementing a ceiling exchange rate of VNĐ25,484 per dollar and a floor exchange rate of VNĐ23,057 per dollar. Historical data showed that whenever the exchange rate rises by more than 2 per cent, the stock market tends to undergo corrections. If the VN-Index surpasses 1,255 points, investors should be cautious of a strong resistance zone at 1,275 - 1,280 points.

Most human rights recommendations acceptable to Việt Nam, some need further consideration: Official
The third message was that with its consistent policy on protecting and promoting human rights, Việt Nam has very seriously implemented the UPR recommendations that it accepted in the previous cycle and achieved numerous positive results, especially in perfecting the legal system and ensuring human rights in practice, thus bringing very practical results to its people. Assessing 320 recommendations that Việt Nam received from 133 countries during the dialogue, the official stated that most of them have positive contents and Việt Nam can accept them. But some need to be considered further in terms of compatibility with Việt Nam's laws, policies, resources and enforcement capabilities. As for the recommendations which are not really appropriate and based on inaccurate information about ensuring freedom of speech, press and assembly, Việt Nam will continue to hold dialogue and provide information to those countries so that they better understand the actual situation in Việt Nam, he said. Việt Nam will carefully study the recommendations and announce the country’s stance on them before the 57th session of the UNHRC.

Domestic auto market shows signs of recovery
HÀ NỘI — Việt Nam’s automobile market seems to be on the way to recovery, particularly for domestically produced and assembled cars, according to industry insiders. The report suggests that in the first four months of 2024 it looks like the market is recovering in terms of automobile output production, new assemblies and automobile consumption. The timing appears strategic, as the market is showing signs of recovery after hitting a low point. Car manufacturers, while cautiously optimistic, are still monitoring market developments closely, especially considering the market's collapse a year ago. According to insiders, these developments indicate a positive trajectory for the Vietnamese automobile market, driven by both government policies and strategic initiatives from manufacturers.
