The Vietnamese stock market experienced its seventh consecutive session of adjustment, marking a prolonged period of decline. Strong selling pressure towards the end of the trading session, particularly from major investors and funds, was identified as the primary cause for this downturn. Blue-chip stocks, which are typically market leaders, and the oil & gas sector were particularly affected by this pressure, contributing significantly to the overall market slide. Consequently, the main stock index dropped below the significant 1,700-point mark, a key psychological threshold for investors. This continuous adjustment reflects increasing cautious investor sentiment and widespread profit-taking activities in the market after a period of growth.

Key points
* Stock market adjusted for the 7th consecutive session.
* The market fell below the 1,700-point mark.
* Selling pressure at session end, especially in blue-chip and oil & gas stocks.
