Gold ring price went up 0.32% to VND63.5 million per tael. A tael equals 37.5 grams or 1.2 ounces.
Globally gold prices scaled a one-week peak on Friday as an escalation in the Middle East conflict fuelled safe-haven buying, while softer U.S. producer price inflation boosted bets that the Federal Reserve might cut interest rates sooner, Reuters reported.
Spot gold was up 1% at $2,048.21 per ounce after climbing as much as 1.7% earlier in the session.
Bullion was mostly flat on the week, but extended its run above the $2,000 level to nearly a month. U.S. gold futures settled 1.6% higher at $2,051.60.
