Financial experts have issued guidance for gold investors to manage risks associated with market volatility and impulsive decision-making. Initial advice focused on identifying five specific warning signs, such as buying driven by ‘FOMO’ (fear of missing out) or diverting funds from essential needs. Experts, including Nguyen Quang Huy of Nguyen Trai University, suggest viewing gold as a defensive asset for hedging rather than chasing sentiment, recommending gradual accumulation and a balanced portfolio. By August 2026, gold prices in Vietnam remained high, with SJC bars listed between 140.5 and 143.5 million VND per tael. However, significant volatility emerged on August 12, when SJC gold bars saw a sharp decline of approximately 1.7 million VND per tael, trading around 140.8 to 143.8 million VND. This domestic drop followed a two-week peak and was influenced by global trends, including gold prices falling below 4,400 USD per ounce. On September 8, 2026, the market experienced continued volatility. SJC gold bars at major brands like DOJI, Phu Quy, and SJC fluctuated, with prices reported around 144.1 to 147.1 million VND per tael. ~~While some reports indicated a sharp morning decrease of 1.1 million VND per tael, prices later stabilized or saw slight increases.~~ On September 9, 2026, domestic prices experienced another significant decline following a sharp drop in global markets. Major brands including SJC, PNJ, DOJI, Phú Quý, and Bảo Tín Mạnh Hải reported SJC gold bar prices around 142.4 million VND per tael for buying and 145.4 million VND per tael for selling, a decrease of approximately 1.2 to 1.7 million VND per tael from the previous morning. Globally, Kitco reported prices around 4,351 USD per ounce. This downward trend is attributed to market pressures following positive US labor market signals, which have heightened expectations regarding US Federal Reserve interest rate policies. Investors are now monitoring upcoming US inflation data, such as the Producer Price Index (PPI) and Consumer Price Index (CPI).
