The remaining five — VNM (-0.65%), FUEVFVND (-1.00%), E1VFVN30 (-1.04%), FUESSV50 (-1.38%) and FUESSVFL (-1.86%) — closed lower on the day.
Over five sessions, the range is tighter: the best one-week reading belongs to FUESSVFL at -0.28%, and the weakest to FUEKIVFS at -5.20%. Over one month, FUESSV30 stands out with -2.36%, versus FUEKIVFS at -7.37% at the other end of the table.
A uniformly negative YTD picture
It is worth stating plainly: this is not a comparison between winners and losers, but between different degrees of year-to-date decline. The span runs from -1.58% (FUESSV50) to -14.73% (FUEVFVND). The two VN30-tracked domestic funds are close together on YTD — FUESSV30 at -5.14% and E1VFVN30 at -5.26% — while the US-listed VNM sits at -11.88%, based on Yahoo Finance data as of October 2, 2026.
YTD Leaderboard: FUESSV50 Leads a Field With No Positive Returns
Ranked by year-to-date return using the same Yahoo Finance dataset, the order is: FUESSV50 (-1.58%), FUEKIVFS (-4.98%), FUESSV30 (-5.14%), E1VFVN30 (-5.26%), FUESSVFL (-7.71%), VNM (-11.88%) and FUEVFVND (-14.73%).
FUESSV50 (SSIAM VNX50 ETF) — -1.58% YTD
FUESSV50 tops the YTD table with the shallowest decline at -1.58%, and it closed October 2 at 27,970 VND after a -1.38% session. Its reported exchange volume that day was 3K units, the second-lowest in the group, which is worth keeping in mind when interpreting any single-session move in this ticker.
FUEVFVND (DCVFMVN Diamond ETF) — -14.73% YTD
At the other end, FUEVFVND has the deepest YTD decline at -14.73%, roughly 9.5 percentage points below the next weakest domestic fund (FUESSVFL at -7.71%). Its October 2 close was 32,660 VND, down -1.00% on the day, on reported volume of 205K units — the second-highest among the Vietnamese-listed funds in this table.

The middle of the pack
The cluster between -4.98% and -5.26% YTD — FUEKIVFS, FUESSV30 and E1VFVN30 — is remarkably tight, with only 0.28 percentage points separating all three. That clustering matters for anyone running a comparison: on YTD alone, these three are effectively indistinguishable, and the tie is broken by the shorter timeframes.
Which Vietnam ETF Is the Least Risky Right Now?
Risk is not fully captured by price returns alone, so treat the following as a read of drawdown depth across the periods in the data table, not a complete risk assessment. Within that limitation, a few clear patterns emerge.
FUESSV30: smallest one-month decline at -2.36%
Over the past month, FUESSV30 (SSIAM VN30 ETF) posted -2.36%, the smallest decline in the set. It was also one of only two funds to close higher on October 2, gaining +0.71% to 24,000 VND. On the year, however, it sits at -5.14%, so its shorter-term resilience has not translated into a better YTD position than FUESSV50. Details are on the /san-pham/fuessv30 page.
FUESSVFL: smallest one-week decline at -0.28%
Over five sessions, FUESSVFL (SSIAM VN FINLEAD ETF) was the most resilient with -0.28%, despite closing October 2 down -1.86% at 28,020 VND on 50K units of volume. Its one-month reading of -5.34% and YTD of -7.71% show that the one-week figure is not representative of its longer trend.
FUESSV50: smallest YTD drawdown at -1.58%
On the longest window available here, FUESSV50 has lost the least ground: -1.58% year-to-date. Its one-month figure of -4.54% is mid-table, so the YTD advantage comes from earlier in the year rather than from recent resilience.
Where liquidity sits: E1VFVN30 at 389K units
On reported exchange volume, E1VFVN30 (VFMVN30 ETF) is the most heavily traded Vietnamese-listed fund in the table at 389K units, ahead of FUEVFVND at 205K units and FUESSVFL at 50K units. FUESSV30 recorded 13K units, FUESSV50 3K units and FUEKIVFS 0K units. Volume is a trading-liquidity measure — not a fund-flow measure — and should not be read as creation or redemption activity. E1VFVN30 closed at 34,190 VND, down -1.04% on the day and -5.26% YTD; see /san-pham/e1vfvn30.
One-Day Movers: FUEKIVFS Posts +6.93% on Negligible Reported Volume
The single-day outlier
FUEKIVFS (KIM Growth VN30 ETF) recorded the largest one-day gain in the set at +6.93%, closing at 16,210 VND. That print came with reported volume of 0K units, and it sits against a -5.20% one-week reading and a -7.37% one-month reading — the weakest in the group on both windows. The data does not tell us why the single session diverged so sharply from the surrounding trend, so no conclusion should be drawn from it beyond the figure itself.
The other positive print: FUESSV30 +0.71%
FUESSV30 was the only other fund to close higher on October 2, adding +0.71% on 13K units. Among the ETFs that traded meaningful volume that day, it was the standout performer. The US-listed VNM was the most heavily traded instrument overall at 790K shares, but closed -0.65% at $16.84 and -11.88% YTD.
