Vietnamese Gold Prices Plummet Amid Global Market Volatility
Gold prices in Vietnam have been falling due to domestic market adjustments and fluctuations in world gold prices. According to Laodong.vn, as of August 14th at 9:50 am, Phu Quy listed SJC gold bar prices at 140.3-143.3 million VND/tael, down 1.3 million VND/tael from the previous day in both buying and selling directions.
