The State Bank of Vietnam recently announced an increase in the central exchange rate, adjusting the Vietnamese dong to USD up by 6 VND, now standing at 25,189 VND. Market sentiment remains cautious, with an adjusted sentiment score of 50 indicating a neutral outlook amidst rising fears, as reflected in the topic coverage of 18.
