A quick look at the first half of August on the Vietnamese stock markets

For most of the start of the month, both Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh indexes have fallen synchronously.

February 2018 stock performance

February has been a hectic month, to say the least. Vietnam's stock markets have been heavily hit by the plunges on Wall Street that triggered a rout in equities worldwide.
