Actually, the Vietnamese stock market is truly worth paying attention to, especially over the past 10 years. While the economy has been growing strongly, the VN30 index of the Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange is a very good reflection of its potential.

The VN30 Index is composed of 30 leading companies with the largest market capitalization and highest liquidity in Vietnam. An interesting figure is that these 30 companies account for about 70-80% of the total market value, making it a precise indicator of the overall market.

Looking at the components, most of the VN30 comes from the financial sector (about 45%), followed by real estate (20%) and consumer goods (11%). The companies most influential on movement are Vietcombank in the banking sector, Vinamilk in consumer goods, and Hoa Phat Group in the steel sector.

Getting into the VN30 index is not easy. Companies must meet strict criteria, such as high market value, good liquidity, free float not less than 5%, and strong financial health. The review occurs twice a year.

What makes VN30 still interesting is that Vietnam’s economy continues to grow. The government has investor-friendly policies, and many companies in the index are still in growth phases. Factors affecting VN30 include internal ones like government monetary policy and company performance, as well as external ones like the global economic situation and U.S. interest rates.

Unlike the VN index, which covers all stocks in the market, VN30 selects only the top 30 stocks with high liquidity. This makes VN30 more focused and better at reflecting large-cap stocks that influence the market. Its volatility is also lower than that of the VN Index.

When it comes to interesting stocks in VN30, it depends on the investor’s perspective. Vinhomes is an attractive choice for those seeking growth in the real estate sector. Vietcombank is suitable for those who believe the banking sector will grow. Vinamilk is also interesting for investors looking at consumer goods stocks.

Overall, VN30 remains a noteworthy index for investors seeking growth in emerging markets, but it’s important to carefully assess investment goals and the risks you can accept beforehand.
