According to observations, gold shops in Vinh on the morning of July 15 were quite deserted, some shops had a few customers all morning, some shops had no customers. Ms. Hien, the owner of a gold shop on Le Loi Street, said: A few days ago, there were a sudden influx of customers, mainly to buy gold, but in the past two days, the gold price has dropped and there have been no customers coming to buy. The listed buying price of gold is 3,480,000 VND/tael, but some people are coming to sell. In Vinh, there are fewer and fewer customers investing in gold, so it is increasingly difficult for us to expand our production and business.
At Phu Nguyen gold and silver shop (Cao Thang street, Vinh city) this morning, the listed price of 9999 gold is 3,480,000 VND/tael for buying and 3,740,000 VND/tael for selling. At Tan Kim Dung gold and silver shop (Vinh market), the listed price for 9999 gold is 3,500,000 VND/tael for buying and 3,750,000 VND/tael for selling. Western gold (70% gold) has a buying price of 2,090,000 VND/tael and a selling price of 2,640,000 VND/tael. Other silver and gemstone items remain at the same price. There are only a few customers and there are almost no people buying "surfing" gold.

PNJ gold representative said: grasping the fluctuating gold price, the store mainly sells gold jewelry and has listed prices since production. For 9999 gold, the price is listed according to the market price, but very few customers come to buy. Here, the listed gold price is 3,660,000 VND/tael (buy) and 3,680,000 VND/tael (sell), higher than local gold. Kim Thanh Huy gold representative said: The speed of buying and selling gold is showing signs of stopping, both buying and selling. This is contrary to the trend four days ago when gold suddenly increased, people came to buy in large numbers.
Ms. Nguyen Thi Ngoc Hanh (Trung Do ward, Vinh city), a gold buyer today, said: Gold prices are fluctuating erratically, so I only buy a few taels to keep things in check, rather than risk investing a large amount of money in this item. Almost everyone is in the market exploration phase.
Gold price on July 6 increased rapidly, officially reaching 40 million VND/tael, gold price increased by nearly 3 million VND/tael in just the first 6 days of July. On July 11, gold prices rose to VND38-39 million/tael; on July 12, world gold prices plummeted; on July 13, they regained momentum after falling to a two-week low, thanks to the prospect of additional economic stimulus packages from key central banks around the world. On July 14, the gold price increased slightly but still decreased compared to July 6 with the price of nearly 40 million VND/tael (9999 gold). |
