Investors, especially funds and foreign institutional buyers, picked up plummeting but fundamentally good shares, resulting in strong bargain hunting in most blue-chips, analysts said. VN Index's price-over-earning ratio (PE) is now the lowest among Southeast Asian countries at 12.16, far below the leading Philippines' benchmark with a PE of 20.09, Reuters data showed. "The market has recovered, and margin call pressure has lessened, but a solid rebound depends on how the political situation turns out," said Doan Minh Quan, a manager at ACB Securities. Top gainer PetroVietnam Gas, the country's largest listed firm, jumped 5.43 percent, its biggest gain since April last year, Reuters data showed. Dairy product maker Vinamilk rose 4 percent while food producer Masan Group was up 3.45 percent. Here is a snapshot of the VN Index at the close VN Index 542.46 PREV.

The report came late on Thursday. Philippine bourse recorded a net foreign inflow of 758 million peso ($17.2 million) on the day, the biggest in more than one week, according to Thomson Reuters and stock exchange data. In Bangkok, foreign investors further cut positions in shares, sending the SET index 0.1 percent lower on the day and down 3.1 percent on the week, Southeast Asia's second worst performer after Vietnam, which was down 6.2 percent.
