Stocks reach record high

This shows a strong growth of the stock market after 11 years with market capitalisation experiencing an 8-fold increase. Vietnamese economic growth in 2017 also witnessed a record high of 6.8% and is expected to rise sharply at the first quarter of 2018. In the meantime, exchange rate and inflation have been kept stable. Market analysts claim that the stock market’s growth should attract foreign investors who could eye Vietnam as a potential investment destination.
