It is known that the sudden increase in customers is due to people knowing about the record increase in gold prices on August 7, combined with the weekend, so many people went to buy and sell, surveying gold prices. Ms. Nguyen Phuong Thao, a sales employee at a gold shop, said: The number of people coming to trade increased more than yesterday (August 7), although there were also many people who came just to see the price and calculate investments, not to close the transaction.

Mr. Nguyen Van Minh, Le Loi ward said: "Although the gold price has decreased compared to yesterday, it is still at a high level for the month, so my husband and I still decided to sell the gold we have saved to invest in business and avoid the gold price continuing to decrease in the near future."

According to the survey, round rings and gold bracelets were the most sold items by people in the past 2 days. The number of people buying gold is not much because gold is still at a high price and weddings are being postponed due to the Covid-19 epidemic. Photo: QA
