  "account": "The Vietnamese dong saw the US dollar slip against it on Friday, according to wire material. Vietnamcombank sold the greenback at VND25,780, a decrease of 0.08% from the previous day, marking its lowest level since March 31, 2025. Unofficial exchange points reported the currency rising 0.19% to approximately VND26,130. The State Bank of Vietnam adjusted its reference rate by 0.03% to VND25,615.\n\nGlobally, the US dollar remained strong against major currencies on Friday, benefiting from the demand for safe havens following a worldwide selloff in AI stocks. However, lower Treasury yields somewhat capped these gains ahead of a significant US payrolls report, according to Reuters. The dollar index, which tracks the dollar's performance against six other currencies, rose by 0.3% to 101.74.\n\nMeanwhile, the euro experienced a slight decline against the dollar, falling 0.2% to $1.1198, but was expected to gain around 0.4% for the week, ending a two-week losing streak. The British pound also dipped by 0.1% to $1.3433, following the Bank of England's decision to increase its policy interest rate, as anticipated. The pound is projected to end the week 0.3% higher, marking the fourth consecutive week of gains.\n\nDilin Wu, a research strategist at Pepperstone, suggested that the dollar is receiving support from safe-haven demand. This could maintain its relative strength against some Asian currencies, though falling Treasury yields might limit the upside.",
