Stock market trading tipped to continue upwards in May

On April 29, the last trading session of the month, the market strongly surpassed the first T+3 round, rising 1.17 per cent or 15.81 points. April, however, was still the worst month in two years for the VN-Index, which lost 8.4 per cent of its value. The fact that stocks gained just as the market is to take a four-day break shows investor expectations that trading trends will continue into May.
