Vietnamese stocks climbed to its highest in over three years as investors await details on the U.S.-Vietnam trade agreement that President Donald Trump announced Wednesday.

The U.S. is imposing a 20% tariff on goods imported from the Southeast Asian nation, while the latter will impose "ZERO Tariff," Trump said on Truth Social. This comes as the deadline for Trump's 90-day tariff reprieve draws closer.

The benchmark Vietnam Index rose 0.3% to its highest since April 2022, data from LSEG showed.

Overnight stateside, the three major averages closed mixed. The S&P 500 scored a fresh all-time intraday high and closed at another record.

The Vietnamese dong weakened to a record low of 26,195 per dollar after its trade deal with the U.S., data from LSEG showed.

While Vietnam striking a trade deal with the U.S. set off a rally in U.S. equities, the same enduring optimism among Asian markets and economies is not a given, said Vishnu Varathan, Mizuho Securities' head of macro research, Asia ex-Japan.

"For one, the deal with Vietnam is a stark reminder of the imbalance in leverage, to the disadvantage of Asian exporters," he wrote in a Thursday note.

However, the depreciation of the Vietnamese dong potentially provides a buffer for the 20% tariffs, he added.

President  said Wednesday that the United States has struck a trade deal with Vietnam that includes a 20% tariff on the Southeast Asian country's imports to the U.S.

The deal will give the U.S. tariff-free access to Vietnam's markets, Trump said on Truth Social.

Vietnam also agreed that goods would be hit with a 40% tariff rate, he added, if they originated in another country and were transferred to Vietnam for final shipment to the United States.

The process, known as transshipping, is used to circumvent trade barriers. China, a top exporter to the U.S., has reportedly used Vietnam as a transshipment hub.
