Market wrap: VIC drops, VN-Index edges down

On Tuesday, the VN-Index edged down by two-tenths of a percent, which was primarily driven by VIC dropping as investors were cautious ahead of VinFast’s listing debut on Nasdaq in the US.

* VIC (-3.5%) was the top contributor to the day’s loss. Conversely, its subsidiaries VRE (+3.3%) and VHM (+0.8%) were the day’s top two contributing gainers.

* Most bank tickers were down, led by BID (-1.3%), ACB (-0.9%), STB (-1.2%), SSB (-0.8%) and MSB (-2.1%).

* Real estate developer NVL (-2.3%) pulled back after increasing 6.8% over the previous three trading days.
