I-Royal Mint iceba ukukhupha igolide kwinkunkuma ye-elektroniki

I-Royal Mint yaseBritane ithe iceba ukwakha isityalo eWales ukuphinda isetyenziswe amakhulu eekhilogram zegolide kunye nezinye iintsimbi ezixabisekileyo ezivela kwinkunkuma yombane efana neeselfowuni kunye neelaptops.

Zombini igolide kunye nesilivere ziqhuba kakhulu, kwaye iimali ezincinci zifakwe kwiibhodi zeesekethe kunye nezinye izixhobo kunye nezinye iintsimbi ezixabisekileyo. Uninzi lwezi zixhobo aziphinda zisetyenziswe, kwaye izinto zombane ezilahliweyo zihlala zilahlwa kwiindawo zokulahla inkunkuma okanye zitshiswe.

I-mint, engaphezulu kweminyaka eyi-1,100 ubudala, yathi ibambisene nesiqalo saseCanada esibizwa ngokuba yi-Excir ukuphuhlisa izisombululo zeekhemikhali zokukhupha isinyithi kwiibhodi zesekethe.

Umanejala weMint uSean Millard uthi inkqubo yenzelwe ukukhetha iintsimbi ezixabisekileyo zococeko oluphezulu. I-Mint ngoku isebenzisa iskimu kwisikali esincinci ngelixa kuyilwa umzi-mveliso. Kuyathenjwa ukuba ngokulahla amakhulu eetoni zenkunkuma ye-elektroniki ngonyaka ngamnye, amakhulu eekhilogram zeentsimbi ezixabisekileyo anokuveliswa. Ukwathe isityalo kufuneka sisebenze "kwiminyaka embalwa ezayo."

Malunga negolide e-UK

Ngokutsho kwe-Financial Times, idatha yakutshanje evela kwi-Eurostat, i-ofisi yezibalo ze-European Union, ibonisa ukuba i-British yegolide ethunyelwa ngaphandle eSwitzerland, indawo ephambili yoshishino lokucoca igolide, inyuke kwiitoni ezingama-798 kwiinyanga ezintandathu zokuqala zalo nyaka ukusuka kwiitoni ezingama-83 ngexesha elifanayo kunyaka ophelileyo. Eli xabiso lokuthumela ngaphandle lizibhiliyoni ezingama-29 zee-euro, elilingana phantse ne-30% yemveliso yegolide yonyaka.

Ukuthunyelwa ngaphandle kwegolide yaseBritane kunyuke phantse kalishumi, abahlalutyi becebisa ukuba intsimbi iyahamba isuka kwiivaults eLondon iye kwindawo yokucokisa eSwitzerland kwaye ekugqibeleni iye kubathengi eAsia phakathi kwamaxabiso ahlayo. Ngamaxabiso egolide asesendleleni ehlayo, isikali sokuthunyelwa kwe-UK kwisiqingatha sokuqala salo nyaka sinokuthetha ukuba abatyali-mali basentshona balahlekelwa umdla wabo wegolide kwaye ubunini buyatshintsha kwinqanaba elikhulu.

ILondon lelinye lamaziko emarike yegolide yehlabathi, abagcini bebhanki baqikelela ukuba iindawo zokugcina iimpahla zesiXeko, kuquka neBhanki yaseNgilani, ziphethe malunga neetoni ezili-10,000 zegolide, uninzi lwayo lugcinwe ngabatyali-zimali kunye neebhanki ezingoovimba. Uhlalutyo lwebhanki ye-Australia ye-Macquarie ikholelwa ukuba ngenxa yokuba i-United Kingdom ayinayo izibonelelo zegolide, iimali zegolide ze-ETF (i-asethi yegolide esekelwe, ukulandelela ukuguquguquka kwexabiso legolide ye-derivatives yemali) ngowona mthombo wegolide. Isixa esikhulu segolide yaseBritani ethengiswe kumazwe angaphandle kwisiqingatha sokuqala salo nyaka ivela koku. Ngokutsho kweWorld Gold Council ngaphambili idatha ekhutshweyo ibonisa ukuba kwikota yesibini ka-2012 i-ETF yegolide yaqokelela ukuphuma kwe-402.2 yeetoni zegolide, ngokungathandabuzekiyo ukuthengisa kwe-UK kubangele icandelo layo eliphambili.

Ukususela ekuqaleni kwalo nyaka, abatyali-mali beemarike bathengise igolide kwizinga elikhulu, okubangela ukuba ixabiso legolide lehle kakhulu. Ngelixa i-wave yamva nje yokuthengisa umtyali-mali sele iqalile ukucotha, igolide ibetha phezulu kwiinyanga ezimbini ngoMvulo, amaxabiso asahamba kufutshane nokuhla kweminyaka emithathu. Kwimeko yokuwa kwamaxabiso egolide, abatyali-mali baseBrithani baqala ukuthengisa igolide ngenxa yezizathu ezifana nokugcinwa kwexabiso; Ngaxeshanye, ukuhla kwamaxabiso egolide kumazwe ngamazwe nako kukhuthaze ukukhula kwemfuno yegolide kwihlabathi, ngakumbi kwiimarike ezisakhulayo e-Asia. Kwisiqingatha sokuqala salo nyaka, imfuno yaseTshayina yegolide inyuke nge-54% ukusuka kunyaka ongaphambili, ngokutsho kweChina Gold Association. ILondon Bullion Market Association yathi umthamo wentengiso yegolide kwimarike yaseLondon ngoJuni yayiziitoni ezingama-900, ezixabisa i-39 yeebhiliyoni zeedola, irekhodi leminyaka eyi-12, kunye nemfuno ebonakalayo yegolide evela eAsia, ngakumbi eTshayina naseIndiya, yomelele ngakumbi, ekwakhuthaza abatyali-mali baseNtshona njengeUnited Kingdom ukuba bathengise igolide.

Njengoko igolide yayisuka eNtshona isiya eAsia, ishishini labarhwebi kunye nezinyibilikisi laqalisa. Kwisiqingatha sokuqala sonyaka abanyibilikisi baseSwitzerland abanjengoMattel bebesenza ishishini elikhawulezayo, benyibilikisa iibhari ezinkulu ezingama-400 ezisuka kwiivaults zaseLondon kwaye baphinda baziphosa kwiimveliso ezincinci ezithandwa ngabathengi baseAsia. Omnye umrhwebi omkhulu wegolide wathi: “AbaseSwitzerland basebenza iishifti ezintathu okanye ezine ngosuku ukugcina izinyibilikisi zisebenza ngokungayeki.
