[Vietnam] Dragged down by sluggish trading, buyers in the Vietnamese hot-rolled coil (HRC) market maintain an extremely strong wait-and-see stance.

However, due to weak market expectations and highly depressed purchasing intent, this price reduction has still failed to attract any substantial buying interest.
