Khương Duy |

The decline in domestic gold prices, combined with the high difference between buying and selling prices, has caused investors to face high losses.

The difference in buying and selling prices of SJC gold at Saigon Jewelry Company increased to VND 3.5 million/tael.

Meanwhile, the price of SJC gold bars listed by DOJI Group is at 86.5-90 million VND/tael (buy - sell); down 1.7 million VND/tael for buying and down 1.2 million VND/tael for selling.

Combined with the huge difference, the decline in domestic gold prices caused investors to suffer heavy losses after one day of buying. If investors bought SJC gold in the session of February 6, 2025 at Saigon Jewelry Company SJC and DOJI Group and then sold it in today's session, they would incur a loss of up to 4.7 million VND/tael.

Similarly, if you buy round gold rings in the session of February 6, 2025 at DOJI Group and Bao Tin Minh Chau and then sell them in today's session, you will incur losses of 4.9 million and 4.65 million VND/tael, respectively.

Recently, domestic gold prices have fluctuated strongly. Notably, the difference between buying and selling prices has widened, reaching VND3.5 million/tael.

The large difference between buying and selling prices is creating huge risks for gold investors. When the difference is pushed up, the gold price must not only increase but must increase sharply to help investors escape losses.

In the context of gold prices being adjusted down, buying at a time when the difference is high causes investors to lose heavily. Just a slight market correction can cause investors to lose a significant amount.

In the context of strong price fluctuations, what worries investors is not only the price decrease but also the way gold businesses adjust the spread, increasing the risk when trading. To avoid risks, investors need to carefully observe the market and consider before buying, especially at times when the spread is pushed too high.

Below is the updated gold price on the websites of some businesses, recorded at 9:20 a.m. on February 7, 2025:
