Vietnam’s interest rates declined significantly

The NAV of PYN Elite has shown positive performance during the current year. The year 2023 began with a NAV value of 395 and the latest figure has exceeded 443. Since the beginning of the year, there has been a return of 12%. Vietnam’s economic growth rate remained sluggish during the first half of the year, with GDP growth reaching only 4%. The earnings growth of listed companies recorded numbers below the normal pace.

We expect that the direction of the stock market is however still upward, as Vietnam’s interest rates declined significantly during the spring, and the decreasing interest rates will provide further momentum to Vietnam’s economic growth as the year progresses. By autumn, the interest rates are expected to reach a level of 6%. We also anticipate that the earnings growth of listed companies will accelerate, and the reallocation of funds back into the stock market will continue.
