Talking to Tuoi Tre Online , expert Tran Duy Phuong said that according to observations, investors have shifted from hoarding to selling. The amount of gold sold on the market is quite abundant, but buyers are cautious, unlike last week when the gold price went up, most of them just bought.

Today, SJC Company listed the selling price of 9999 gold rings at 83 million VND/tael, buying at 81.5 million VND/tael. Meanwhile, the price of SJC gold bars remained unchanged at 83.5 million VND/tael - 81.5 million VND/tael (selling - buying).
