The U.S. dollar fell against the Vietnamese dong Friday morning amid a global decline.
Vietcombank sold the greenback 0.02% lower at VND26,405.
The dollar rose 0.07% to VND27,200 on the black market.
Globally the U.S. dollar headed for its third straight weekly drop on Friday, hurt by the prospect of rate cuts next year after the Federal Reserve pushed back against hawkish market bets, lifting the euro and sterling to their highest since October, Reuters reported.
The euro was steady at $1.1741 in early Asian hours after a 0.37% rise in the previous session, while the pound was marginally firmer at $1.33955. Both are poised for their third straight week of gains as the dollar remains under pressure.
