The U.S. dollar edged down against the Vietnamese dong on the black market Saturday morning.
Unofficial exchange points sold the greenback 0.07% lower at VND26,390. Vietcombank kept its rate unchanged at VND26,404.
Globally the dollar was higher on Friday and set for a more than 1% weekly gain after the U.S. economy posted another month of strong employment gains in May, Reuters reported.
The yen was last down 0.08% against the dollar at 160.150. It was headed for a fourth straight weekly loss against the dollar, having unwound gains from official buying in late April and early May.
The euro fell after the release of U.S. jobs data, and was last down 0.75% at $1.152, despite expectations of up to three European Central Bank rate hikes this year. The pound fell 0.64% to $1.33.
