Vietnam, Hedge, Safe haven, StocksAbstract
This study investigates the safe haven properties of several typical financial assets against the Vietnamese stock market during the 2020–2025 period, examining two distinct sub-periods: the COVID-19 pandemic and the periods of global geopolitical tensions. Using an OLS regression model with nearly 1,400 observations, the authors analyze fluctuations across four asset classes: Commodities, government bonds, foreign currencies, and cryptocurrencies, during periods of sharp declines in the Vietnamese market. The findings indicate that in a frontier market such as Vietnam, gold does not exhibit safe haven characteristics. Conversely, government bonds and the USD demonstrate strong safe-haven properties against the Vietnamese stock market. Most of the remaining assets fail to provide safe havens, acting only as weak hedges.
