Variables which are “consumer price index in Vietnam”, “inflation rate in Vietnam”, “USD/VND exchange rate” and “nominal interest rate in Vietnam” are employed to construct a model of the gold price in Vietnam. The model learns from monthly observations pertained to the last day of the month spanning the period from January 2011 to June 2015. The results show that there is a positive relationship between the Vietnam gold price and the USD/VND exchange rate. We conclude that the inflation and the nominal interest rate in Vietnam have no statistical significance upon the gold price.
