Gold price peaks, many stores stop receiving customers

Phan Anh - Hạ Linh |

On January 25, gold prices hit a new peak. Many stores continued to stop receiving customers due to overload.

According to Lao Dong reporters' records at the end of today (January 25), the price of plain round gold rings and gold bars is anchored at a high price threshold. At gold shops in Hanoi, the number of people queuing to transact is always bustling.

However, buying gold rings at this time is very difficult. Although many people come to state-licensed gold brand stores in the inner city, they cannot "certainly" have gold to go home. Meanwhile, most gold shops have announced that they will not sell gold bars.

Di doc cac tuyen pho co nhieu co so kinh doanh vang thuong hieu tai Ha Noi, anh Phung Quoc Anh (phuong Tay Ho, Ha Noi) - cam thay be tac trong viec mua vao vang nhan - cho biet: "Toi muon mua 2 luong vang nhan tron tron nhung den cac tiem vang thuong hieu nhu Bao Tin Minh Chau, Doji deu thong bao dung nhan khach vi so luong qua tai. Di sang cac cua hang vang khac nhu Bao Tin Manh Hai ho co ban ra nhung moi nguoi xep hang rat dai".

Anh Quoc Anh believes that at this time, gold prices show no signs of "cooling down". People with a fear that the price zone may continue to peak, so if they accumulate, they will invest more.

However, being sure to have "gold" requires everyone to work hard, quit their jobs early, and patiently wait" - Mr. Quoc Anh added.

Khong may man nhu nhung nguoi khac trong danh sach cho, chi Do My Linh (My Dinh, Ha Noi) ngam ngui ra ve - chia se: "Toi khong ngo hom nay so luong khach hang toi giao dich dong nhu vay, toi cung da di den nhieu tiem vang nhung khong phai cho nao cung ban. Cach day 3-4 hom, toi co ra cua hang vang mua, gia luc do khoang 17 trieu dong/chi nay da len gan 17,5 trieu dong/chi, muc tang qua nhanh".

Ms. Linh added that today she plans to buy 1 chi because gold prices may continue to rise, but the store does not accept more customers.

For those who came early like Ms. Bui Thanh Thao (Xuan Phuong commune, Hanoi) - a customer who wants to buy in - said: "I saw many people coming from 1 pm, I arrived at 2:30 pm and had to wait at the 14th stall. Today is the weekend, many people have time to wait, so the number of people is much larger than usual".

Ms. Thao plans to buy 5 taels of gold, but the worry of whether the store will still trade in her turn is still an unknown.
