Gold prices increase, people still look for gold rings
On June 27, although domestic gold prices increased again, many people still came to stores on Tran Nhan Tong street (Hanoi) to buy gold rings. However, the number of customers has decreased significantly compared to previous peak periods, there is no longer a long queue and transaction time is only about 15-20 minutes.

Many customers said they are taking advantage of buying gold for long-term accumulation even though prices are increasing. Some people buy from 3-5 taels of gold rings because they believe that transactions are now more convenient, and will continue to monitor market developments to consider buying more when prices are suitable.
Besides those who decided to spend money, there are still many customers who only come to refer to prices and temporarily do not buy because gold prices fluctuate rapidly. The trading atmosphere at stores is generally stable and much more open than before.
As of 6 pm on the same day, domestic gold bar prices simultaneously increased by 1.5 million VND/tael, trading at the threshold of 145.5 million VND/tael - 148.5 million VND/tael (buying - selling). See more...
