Gold price dropped slightly in Vietnam Tuesday afternoon but edged higher in the global market.

Saigon Jewelry Company fell 0.24% to VND84.3 million per tael. A tael equals 37.5 grams or 1.2 ounces.

Gold ring declined by 0.24% to VND84.1 million per tael.

Globally gold prices edged higher on Tuesday in lackluster trading in a holiday-trimmed week, as investors braced for U.S. President-elect Donald Trump’s trade tariff policies and a less aggressive rate-cut path from the Federal Reserve next year, Reuters reported.

Spot gold added 0.3% to $2,620.83 per ounce. U.S. gold futures were 0.2% up at $2,634.10.
