Market Commentary: Real Estate stocks performed positively, the market approached the important psychological resistance level of 1,500.0pts

The VN-INDEX saw solid growth from the beginning, with the majority of the support coming from Steel stocks. However, as profit-taking surfaced from stocks that had seen substantial growth recently, such as Steel, Oil & Gas, and Fertilizer, the market corrected back to reference level.
