Benchmark indices moved in different directions on Friday as blue-chip stocks saw a withdrawal in capital while market liquidity hit a three-week high.
 
The VN-Index on the Hồ Chí Minh Stock Exchange (HoSE) finished the day at 1,279.91 points, down 21.6 points, or 1.66 per cent.
 
On the southern bourse, the breadth was negative as 272 stocks ticked down, while 70 increased and 34 ended flat. Liquidity hovered above VNĐ29.3 trillion (US$1.15 billion), an increase of 27 per cent from the previous session.
 
The VN30-Index, tracking the 30 biggest stocks on HoSE by market capitalisation, also dropped 17.39 points, or 1.3 per cent, down to 1,316.46 points. The number of decliners surpassed gainers in the VN30 basket by 28 to two.
 
Large-cap stocks in the banking and manufacturing sectors led the market's downturn, with Vietnam Rubber Group - Joint Stock Company (GVR) posting the biggest fall in market capitalisation of 6.65 per cent, contributing to a decrease of 2.1 points in the VN-Index.
