The VN-Index added 2.53 percent or as much as 0.44 percent to end at 572.23 points while the HNX-Index rose 146 percent to end at 77.75 points.

Blue chips continued to lead market gains on the day with the VN30-Index, composed of the southern bourse's largest stocks by market value and liquidity, rising by 0.91 percent to 618.1 points.
In the VN30 package, there were only three losers. These were Vietinbank (CTG), Masan Group (MSN) and PetroVietnam Low Pressure Gas Distribution (PGD) which narrowed down the gains at the VN-Index.
Overall, there were 143 advancers on the southern bourse and 49 decliners.
On the northern bourse, benchmark indices witnessed solid gain as investors' confidence improved after the previous day's gain with 123 codes ending higher, doubling losers.
