The global foreign exchange market remains focused on the mobility of the US dollar as traders await upcoming economic data. The US Dollar Index stands at 102.14, with the previous day at 102.139, seven days ago at 101.91, and thirty days ago at 99.124, signaling a resilient greenback within a broader, still asymmetric risk environment. In this context, domestic rates for major currencies reflect a mix of strength and softness relative to the dollar, illustrating a continuation of a broad, selective bid for the greenback in the near term while other currencies show localized gains or steadying levels.
In the domestic market, the USD bid-ask is 25,690.00 for buying and 26,070.00 for selling, creating a spread of approximately 380.00 VND. Major peers exhibit varied directions: Euro is quoted at 28,617.90 for buy and 29,826.12 for sell, with the previous day’s sell near 29,826.12 and 7 days ago around 29,974.12 while 30 days ago reached 30,842.66. The British pound trades at 33,740.34 buy and 34,821.75 sell, with the previous day at 34,821.75; 7 days ago at 34,951.16 and 30 days ago at 35,565.35. The Australian dollar shows buy at 17,787.17 and sell at 18,357.26, with the previous day sell also 18,357.26; 7 days ago 18,408.82 and 30 days ago 18,870.07. The Canadian dollar is quoted buy 17,932.03 and sell 18,506.77, with the previous day sell at 18,506.77; 7 days ago 18,505.92 and 30 days ago 19,022.70. The Swiss franc lists buy 30,707.28 and sell 31,691.47, with the previous day sell at 31,691.47; 7 days ago 31,745.72 and 30 days ago 32,332.75. The Chinese yuan shows buy 3,804.76 and sell 3,926.71, with the previous day sell at 3,926.71; 7 days ago 3,938.56 and 30 days ago 3,926.03.
The spectrum of other major pairs in the domestic market also highlights notable activity. The Japanese yen trades with buy at 159.21 and sell at 168.47, with the previous day sell at 168.47; 7 days ago 169.06 and 30 days ago 173.50. The Korean won sits at buy 18.54 and sell 20.12, with the previous day sell at 20.12; 7 days ago 20.25 and 30 days ago 20.12. Other currencies include the Kuwaiti dinar with buy 83,516.21 and sell 87,566.27, the Malaysian ringgit at buy 6,267.80 and sell 6,404.31, and the Norwegian krone at buy 2,657.57 and sell 2,770.32, each showing distinct placements within the broader market. These readings underline a broad but uneven global FX landscape, where the USD remains a central anchor while other currencies exhibit localized volatility and dispersion around their respective benchmarks.
Notable context from the past 24 hours emphasizes the USD central rate around 25,621 VND per USD and a mixed domestic market tone as investors digest CPI developments and other economic signals. Market observers note a cautious stance as VN Index shows a fourth straight session of decline while domestic valuations and commodity cues react to global rate expectations. The overall picture suggests persistent USD strength in the short term with selective movements across major currencies, and a continued cadence of data-driven moves as traders balance risk and opportunity in the FX space.
