The dollar rose to a new peak against the dong this year, hitting VND24,550 this week, and has risen around 3% since the beginning of the year at Vietcombank. "Many are concerned about the gain of the dollar, but I do not think it will rise as strongly as last year," said Nguyen The Minh, director of analysis at Yuanta Securities. The dollar rose at some point by 8.5% against the dong last year to 24,900 before declining in the last month of the year. The surge came after the State Bank of Vietnam (SBV) widened the dong-dollar trading band from 3% to 5% a day and allowed the dong to depreciate as global central banks tightened their monetary policies. But the gain of the dollar this year, according to Minh, is different, as it has mostly been caused by the short-term rise of inflation in the U.S. The U.S. dollar index, which measures the strength of the greenback against major currencies, remained strong at over 105 points. Analysts from stock brokerage firm SSI … [Read more...] about Dollar’s gain against dong to be short-term: analysts
