    Abu Dhabi Gold Jewellers reported up to a 30 % rise in Gold sales

    Rising gold sales in Abu Dhabi with a decline in global gold prices and the recovery of the gold market with more customers .

    Abu Dhabi Gold Jewellers traders have reported up to a 30 per cent rise in sales activity helped by growing consumer confidence as the emirate’s economic recovery gains further strength. “The start of Ramadan has been good so far,” said Riyad Musbah, the general manager at Riyad Jewellery in Abu Dhabi’s Madinat Zayed Gold ­Centre.

    Gold prices are relatively lower and people are more comfortable with buying.” Mr Musbah said jewellers were anticipating the days leading up to Eid would prove whether that trend continued. “It’s usually five days before the holiday that most of the activity happens.”

    The nosedive in the gold market has improved the fortunes of jewellers countrywide, who were struggling to sell gold bullion to customers after it peaked to US$1,789.73 an ounce last year.

    Gold Bullion has lost 20 per cent of its value since the start of the year, with spot prices trading at $1,313.75 an ounce yesterday.

    But traders are worried the yellow metal’s attractiveness may not stay for much longer after India introduced new regulations that curbed imports and drove prices higher.

    “India is the key player in this,” said Mohamed Shakarchi, the founder and managing director of Emirates Gold Refinery in Dubai.

    “Every year they have $60 billion to $70bn incoming and now, the balance of their payments, they are importing more than they are exporting. So their reserves are coming down very rapidly.”

    The country introduced new regulations in a bid to stifle gold buying. It doubled its import tax to 8 per cent from 4 per cent at the start of the year.

    The regulations also require that a fifth of bullion imports be used for export. The new rules have spurred a halt in imports since July 22, Bachhraj Bamalwa, the director of the trade body All India Gems and Jewellery Trade Federation, told Reuters.

    “Following the Indian central bank’s introduction of further measures to curb gold imports, physical premiums have risen sharply in India,” said a research note from Commerz bank.

    Gold rate rose 7.3 per cent from July 1 to July 31, which is its biggest monthly gain since January last year.

    Hopes of further fiscal and monetary easing has helped keep prices steady. Commodities traders are looking for cues from the US Federal Reserve on when it plans to halt its fiscal policy, known as quantitative easing.

    “We see some speculative buying on gold and silver,” a Hong Kong-based precious metals trader told Reuters. “Stops were triggered once gold hit $1,330. There is also month-end buying from funds as they window dress their portfolios.”

However, more and more people have been looking for gold bars as investment. Dubai, the Gold City, is facing shortage and all the nearby places experience a high demand, such as Turkey.

The rush to buy has been ongoing. For many years there had been no such trend. To buy gold and silver coins and bars, one should be aware of the daily price or the spot, and the cost premium. Usually, there is no tax being charged. Diverse commodity exchanges trade these metals daily. The spot price represents the current value. The LMB or London exchange sets the gold price twice for each day in GBP, EUR and USD. The New York exchange fixes the price at the end of the day. As for the silver price, it is fixed only once in a day.

     

    In most locations, when purchasing you will have the spot price as the base purchase cost. Note that the Dubai gold price per gram is also fixed twice a day. The premium represents the amount that is set over the gold price per gram and it is a fixed price. It depends on the minting, and thus a coin premium will be higher than that of a bar. When buying coins, it is important to know whether it is numismatic or bullion. The numismatic ones are a rarity and represent high value, being destined to collectors.
