The additions will give Vietnamese stocks a weight of 0.49%, according to Vietcap Securities JSC, above FTSE's earlier projection. \nThe Southeast Asian nation secured an upgrade to secondary emerging-market status last year, which was confirmed in April.  \n\"Given the increase in Vietnam's index weight, index flows can now reach US$3 billion instead of US$2 billion\" previously, said Anthony Le, a director at Vietcap Securities. \"We believe the market will react positively to this news in the upcoming week.\"\nThe boost comes at a key juncture for Vietnam, whose stock market faces the prospect of its first annual loss in four years. Persistent selling by foreign investors, totalling more than US$3 billion this year, has left the VN Index trailing the MSCI ASEAN Index by the widest margin since 2022, even as Vietnam remains one of the world's fastest-growing economies.\n\nFTSE said Vingroup JSC, Vinhomes JSC, Hoa Phat Group JSC, and Masan Group Corp were among 27 stocks that will be added as large-, mid- and small-caps to its indexes. Additionally, another 90 stocks were earmarked for inclusion as micro-caps, though they will not be included in the widely tracked emerging-market gauge. \nVietnam's benchmark VN Index rose as much 1.4% on Monday to outperform MSCI's regional gauge. Shares of Vingroup jumped as much as 3.4%, while those of Vinhomes, Hoa Phat and Masan also rose.\nThe additions may support Vietnamese stocks in the near term, but their phased implementation through September 2027 means passive inflows are likely to build gradually rather than arrive in a single wave.\nA resurgence in global oil prices due to tensions in the Middle East may weigh on the stock market given Vietnam is heavily reliant on imports. That alongside the fallout from a diamond scandal at the country's largest listed jeweller Phu Nhuan Jewelry JSC represents a key hurdle for Vietnamese stocks.\nStill, investors expect the new market status to attract not only passive funds but also global emerging-market funds whose mandates previously prevented them from investing in Vietnam, which is targeting sustained annual growth of 10%.\n\"The more important effect of the upgrade is that it opens the door to active fund managers, who tend to bring larger, more durable inflows than passive trackers,\" said Marco Martinelli, a partner at Turicum Investment Management AG. \"Combined with still-low valuations across much of the market, that's the more compelling reason for investors to buy now.\"\nUploaded by Liza Shireen Koshy","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":false,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"1","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"isVideo":false,"video":null,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"need_login_tip":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"isLaohu8Offline":false,"tenantId":"TBGLOBAL","deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.48.0","shortVersion":"4.48.0","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2661227799","isCrawlerRequest":true}
