Russia attacks Ukraine, black market USD prices increase, gold prices drop by 1 million

Following the Russian attack on Ukraine, the black market USD rate in Vietnam rose while the world dollar eased, and domestic gold fell 1 million VND per tael. The DXY was reported at 96.53, after reaching 97.74 earlier.

WHY IT MATTERS

Geopolitical risk briefly lifted the dollar, but the report focuses on Vietnamese currency and gold, with little direct effect on feed commodity prices.
