According to the Director of a large agricultural business in the Central Highlands, the pepper market is currently strongly affected by speculative factors, making business activities "as unpredictable as gambling". The main problem lies in the pepper market lacking a clear trading floor and "arbitrator" to regulate, leading to a lack of transparency and fierce competition, causing difficulties for many investors.

Many traders had expected pepper prices to rise to VND180,000-200,000/kg this year due to forecasts of a supply shortage. This prompted them to stock up at the beginning of the harvest season, accepting to buy at a price of around VND150,000/kg. However, the market later became more complicated than expected, especially with information about the reciprocal tax rate from the US causing deep price reduction pressure, putting these investors at a disadvantage.
