The strong increase in domestic gold is partly due to the influence of the world's increase. On October 1, the world gold price was listed at 3,867.7 USD/ounce. By 400:00 today (October 14), the price had increased to 4,139.1 USD/ounce (equivalent to an increase of 7.02%).
World gold prices increased sharply in the first half of October due to the convergence of many supporting factors. Increased trade tensions between major economies along with geopolitical risks and unstable global economic conditions have increased demand for safe-haven assets such as gold.
In addition, expectations of the US Federal Reserve (FED) cutting interest rates soon have weakened the USD, reduced the opportunity cost of holding gold and attracting investment cash flow into this precious metal.
Many central banks continue to increase gold reserves, while prices exceeding the psychological threshold of 4,000 USD/ounce activates technical purchasing power, further consolidating the increase.
The synthesis of the above factors has brought gold prices to a record high, reflecting investors' defensive sentiment in the context of many fluctuations in the global economy and finance.
Although gold prices bring a star profit after half a month, investors need to be very cautious about the risk of FOMO (fear of missing out on opportunities) when gold prices are at a historical peak.
In addition, the difference between domestic buying and selling prices is currently up to several million VND per quantity, causing a high risk of losses if the market reverses.
In the context of strong fluctuations in gold prices according to psychology and international information, investors should carefully consider the trading time, avoid following short-term trends, and should only allocate capital reasonably instead of focusing all on precious metals.
