Gold prices drop sharply, people no longer have to jostle to buy 5 taels

Hạ Linh |

In Hanoi, the queue situation for gold trading continues but no longer causes congestion. The amount of gold sold is still limited.

Recorded by Lao Dong reporter at 9:43 am today (November 5), the price of plain round gold rings and domestic gold bars plummeted. At the gold shop on Cau Giay Street, Hanoi, the number of people lining up has somewhat "cooled down", no longer congested or jostling.

However, according to the new regulations of the store, customers are allowed to make the next transaction every 5-6 days. Ms. Bui Thi Tuoi (Cau Giay, Hanoi) bought 4 days ago but still did not have enough time to regulate the continued transaction. Ms. Tuoi said: "Today I tried to convince the store but they definitely did not sell, it took me a long time to wait in line and had to go home".

As for Mr. Vu Van Ha (My Dinh, Hanoi), he arrived close to the trading time so he quickly lined up. Mr. Ha said: "The shop announced this morning that each person is limited to buying 5 taels of gold".

Having lined up at the busiest time, Ms. Minh Ngoc shared: "Compared to the end of September when gold prices were constantly fluctuating, people rushed to buy. That time, there were grandparents lining up from 7:30 to buy for their children, but today we only need to wait about 15-30 minutes to get into the transaction. After the house renovation, I sold gold to get money to buy furniture. Now that I have accumulated some money, I will buy gold".
