DAHBOO 77 - SALES OF GOLD BARS SOAR AMID RISING TENSION ON KOREAN PENINSULA

Published on Aug 12, 2017
Sales of gold bars, regarded as a safe haven for investors, are increasing in South Korea amid escalating tension with North Korea, industry sources said Saturday.

The Korea Gold Exchange, a local trader, said the average daily sales of 100-gram gold bars reached 250 units since Wednesday, rising sharply from 50 units on average.

Industry watchers said the demand for smaller gold bars is increasing as they are easier to carry compared to kilo-level products. A 10-gram gold bar is currently trading at around 550,000 won (US$480), the trader added.

"Starting this week, the number of affluent consumers in their 50s and 60s purchasing gold bars is increasing," an official from the trader said. "The move apparently followed the geopolitical tension, along with rumors of a crisis in August." Market watchers said the demand for gold bars is expected to continue increasing for the time being, until the tension on the Korean Peninsula settles down.
