Overview
Domestic gold prices at PNJ and other major Vietnamese brands fell by roughly VND 1 million per tael on September 22, 2026, with SJC gold bars quoted at VND 143.6 million buy and VND 146.6 million sell. Silver moved in the opposite direction, rising across most major brands, while world gold edged up to USD 4,354.28 per ounce on TradingView’s XAU/USD. The move matters for Phú Nhuận Jewelry (PNJ) on HOSE because gold and silver retail turnover is a core revenue driver for the country’s largest jewelry chain.

What Happened
The September 22 session saw domestic gold brands adjust lower in unison at the open, with bullion quoted at VND 143.6 million per tael on the buy side and VND 146.6 million on the sell side, a decline of roughly VND 1 million from the previous day. The article attributes the pullback to short-term profit-taking after gold retreated from a two-week peak, while noting that long-term upside remains the prevailing view among financial experts cited. Standard Chartered’s forecast of an average USD 4,650 per ounce in the final quarter of 2026 was referenced as supporting the constructive medium-term outlook.
Silver diverged from gold. Phú Quý quoted 999 silver bars and ingots at VND 2.243 million buy and VND 2.312 million sell per tael, with 999 decorative silver coins at VND 2.243-2.639 million. DOJI listed 999.9 silver at VND 2.303 million buy and VND 2.378 million sell. The article does not state a specific catalyst for the silver move, and no transaction volumes or revenue figures were disclosed.
Market Context
PNJ closed at VND 37.00 with volume of 69,300 shares on September 22, 2026, unchanged on the day, on HOSE. The flat close came against a domestic gold complex that fell about VND 1 million per tael and a silver market that firmed, leaving the jewelry retailer’s equity largely unmoved by the commodity print. PNJ sits in the personal and household goods sector, where earnings sensitivity to gold prices runs through inventory revaluation, retail margins and consumer demand rather than direct commodity exposure.
Strategic Significance
For long-term holders, the relevant question is not the daily gold quote but the spread between PNJ’s buy and sell prices and the mix between gold bars, jewelry gold and silver. A narrowing gold price after a two-week peak can compress margins on inventory held at higher cost, while rising silver demand offers a partial offset given PNJ’s exposure to the silver segment through retail distribution. The Standard Chartered forecast of USD 4,650 per ounce average in Q4 2026, if realized, would support revenue per tael even as volumes respond to price levels. PNJ’s franchise value rests on brand trust and store network scale rather than on any single session’s price move.
What to Watch
- PNJ’s next monthly or quarterly business results for gold and silver revenue and gross margin trends.
- Whether domestic gold prices hold above VND 140 million per tael or extend the correction below that level.
- World gold’s path toward or away from Standard Chartered’s USD 4,650 per ounce Q4 2026 average forecast.
- Silver price direction at Phú Quý and DOJI, and whether the divergence from gold persists.
- Any State Bank of Vietnam policy or gold market intervention affecting SJC bar supply and the premium over world prices.
