The significant loss difference between business units mainly stems from differences in the timing of price adjustments during the Lunar New Year holiday.
In the past week, world gold prices recorded an upward trend, so it is likely that the domestic market will reflect this upward momentum right in the first trading sessions of the new year. On the morning of February 22, Phu Quy was among the few businesses to update prices early, while most other units have not yet adjusted according to the first session of the Lunar New Year.

World gold price

Gold price forecast
After the Lunar New Year holiday, the gold market enters a new trading week in the context of investor sentiment gradually becoming more active again. Many international experts maintain a positive view of the price trend of precious metals, as global risk factors are still present. The developments of world gold are expected to continue to play a leading role, thereby affecting the domestic price level.
James Stanley - senior market strategist at Forex. com - said that buyers are showing clear advantages in short-term timeframes.
According to him, the "rise triangle" model formed on the technical chart is often a signal to strengthen breakthrough potential. The 5,100 USD/ounce mark is considered a key zone: once playing a supporting role, then turning into resistance, and now becoming a "line" that buying power needs to cross to establish a new upward momentum.
From another perspective, Rich Checkan - Chairman and COO of Asset Strategies International believes that the recent adjustment is more technical than reflecting fundamental changes.
He assessed that the market has not seen a foundational factor strong enough to reverse the dominant trend. Therefore, the decreases are considered short-term corrections, which may create a foundation for the next upward cycle.
Notably, geopolitical scenarios continue to be an important variable. Some analysts warn that gold prices may react strongly if US-Iran tensions escalate. Bernard Dahdah (Natixis) forecasts that gold is likely to increase significantly in the first weeks if conflict breaks out, even expanding the amplitude to the 5,500 - 5,800 USD/ounce range. However, he also noted that after the shocking increase, the market may cool down when investors re-evaluate the actual impact.
Recent US economic data also contributes to shaping expectations. Slowing growth while core inflation remains at a high level raises predictions that the US Federal Reserve (Fed) may consider a more flexible interest rate roadmap. The declining real yield environment is often seen as a supporting factor for gold, due to reduced opportunity costs to hold non-performing assets.
In the short term, investors will closely monitor a series of information such as consumer confidence, the number of unemployment claims and the US producer price index (PPI).
