The global gold price increased by ~160 USD in just 2 days, reaching a historical peak of nearly 4,500 USD/oz. In Vietnam, SJC gold (Doji) also rose sharply from 156.6 to ~159 million dong per tael. Main reason: 1. Expectations of the Fed lowering interest rates in 2026 → the cost of holding gold decreases 2. Capital flows seeking refuge from geopolitical risks 3. Break historical high → FOMO triggers short-term buying power 4. Weak USD & US Treasury yields decline → gold becomes more attractive 5. Year-end liquidity is low → volatility is amplified 📌 Conclusion: Gold rises due to multiple converging factors. In high regions, prioritize risk management, avoid FOMO.
