Talking to Tuoi Tre Online , expert Tran Duy Phuong said that the recent hot gold price was due to tariff tensions and investors' concerns about a trade war causing global economic instability. This has pushed the world gold price up continuously in the past two months.
However, it is likely that tensions will ease in the coming time after dialogues, tariff barriers will be removed and interest rate cuts will end. This will be a disadvantage for gold prices.
Last weekend, the world gold price plummeted due to investors taking profits. But if the above forecasts happen, the world gold price could fall by up to 200 USD/ounce, causing the domestic gold price to fall by about 5 million VND/tael compared to the current price.
Not to mention that at that time the difference between domestic and world gold prices will decrease, at that time the domestic gold price can drop to 89-90 million VND/tael.
