The State Securities Commission (SSC) also recommends that investors should beware of fake news when investing in stocks.

According to SSC, investors should not only beware of false rumors without verification which will greatly affect their investment decisions but also analyze and comprehensively evaluate macroeconomic factors, production and business activities of enterprises as well as receive official information from enterprises.

After the previous day’s plunge, today’s stock market showed signs of recovery without a strong fall. Moreover, the main stock groups also recovered well. However, the Vingroup trio still dropped sharply, putting pressure on the index.

After the index fell by more than 4 percent on October 26, SSC today affirmed that the stock market is maintaining stable operations as well as it recommended that investors need to view and comprehensively evaluate the macro economy because although share prices have gone up and down under the combined impact of many factors, the stock market still shows stability through improvements in liquidity as well as gradually increasing number of new accounts.

A representative from the State Securities Commission also added that market developments are influenced by many domestic and world macro factors such as inflation, tightening monetary policies in many countries, and pressure on exchange rate management. In addition, many large economies, including important trading partners of Vietnam, have slowed down, affecting Vietnam’s import and export activities.

However, the Government and ministries, agencies and local administrations have made many efforts to remove difficulties for businesses and people for promotion of economic growth, improvement of the investment environment, along with lowering interest rates with the aim to support production and business activities.

The domestic stock market is expected to maintain positive liquidity and to be an attractive investment channel for investors.

SSC representative also affirmed that responsible agencies will closely monitor all unusual transactions while checking deeds that have shown signs of profiteering. It will coordinate with competent agencies to issue tough penalties on those who spread false and fake rumors in the market, causing negative effects on investors’ investment decisions in the stock market.
