Gainers outnumbered losers by 141-73.
Trading value decreased slightly over May 27's level, reaching 1.4 trillion VND (66.6 million USD) with around 87.4 million shares changing hands.
Among blue chips tracked by the VN30, nine stocks tumbled while 16 made gains.
The frontrunners were Vinh Son-Song Hinh Hydropower (VSH), which hit its ceiling price, rubber company Casumina (CSM), which added 5 percent, and PetroVietnam Drilling Services (PVD), which put on 3.4 percent.
