On the Hồ Chí Minh Stock Exchange (HoSE), the VN-Index rose 2.44 points, or 0.19 per cent, to close the trading session at 1,256.56 points.

The market's breadth was also positive as the number of gainers surpassed that of losers by 186 to 122. Liquidity on the southern bourse fell 32.3 per cent, down to VNĐ21.5 trillion (US$845 million), equivalent to a trading volume of 835 million shares.
