Dollar moves up against dong

Vietcombank sold the greenback 0.08% higher at VND25,660.

The State Bank of Vietnam maintained its reference rate at VND24,758.

The dollar inched up 0.04% to VND25,840 on the black market.

Globally the dollar rebounded slightly on Thursday thanks to a rise in U.S. Treasury yields, though currencies traded in tight ranges as investors struggled to determine the impact of an escalating global trade war on U.S. inflation and growth, Reuters reported.

The dollar rose 0.05% against the yen to 148.31 , recovering some of its losses from earlier in the week when it fell to a five-month low against the Japanese currency, as fears of an economic downturn in the U.S. sparked a rush to the Japanese currency as a safe haven.

The Swiss franc similarly edged away from Monday's three-month peak and last stood at 0.8817 per dollar.
