Vietnam index rises 1.36 pct in hopes of uptrend, foreign inflows

Vietnam's VN Index advanced nearly 1.4 percent on Friday as investors bought banking, property, fuel and foodstuff in hopes of an uptrend and foreign inflows if plans are approved to increase their shareholdings in listed firms, traders said.

Foreigners have bought a net value of 5 trillion dong ($238 million) of Vietnamese shares since the start of this year to June 7, while they sold a net value of 140 billion dong in the
same period last year, exchange data showed.

Here is a snapshot of the VN Index at the close of trading (0716 GMT).
