LONDON, 28 December 2018 - Latest data and comment from BullionVault are quoted today by Thomson Reuters, the international news and financial data agency.
For gold dealers, "Christmas 2018 has been a great vintage," says Reuters, relaying BullionVault's festive trading update - "the best in fact since 2012 with a sharp rise in both new gold investors and the total quantity of gold bought.
"The driver, not surprisingly, is a worsening slump in global stock markets."
"If gold acts as a barometer of financial fears," Reuters quotes Adrian Ash, director of research at BullionVault, "then it's flashing red for 2019."
