I-Royal Mint ihlela ukukhipha igolide kudoti kagesi

I-Royal Mint yaseBrithani ithe ihlela ukwakha imboni eWales ukuze kusetshenziswe kabusha amakhulu amakhilogremu egolide nezinye izinsimbi eziyigugu ezivela kudoti kagesi njengomakhalekhukhwini namalaptop.

Kokubili igolide nesiliva kuyathandeka kakhulu, futhi amanani amancane ashunyekwa kumabhodi esekethe nakwezinye izinto zehadiwe kanye nezinye izinsimbi eziyigugu. Iningi lalezi zinto azikaze zisetshenziswe kabusha, futhi izinto zikagesi ezilahliwe zivame ukulahlwa ezindaweni zokulahla imfucumfucu noma zishiswe.

I-mint, esineminyaka engaphezu kwe-1,100 yasungulwa, ithe ibambisene nenkampani yaseCanada ebizwa nge-Excir ukuthuthukisa izixazululo zamakhemikhali ukuze kukhishwe izinsimbi kumabhodi wesekethe.

Umphathi we-Mint u-Sean Millard uthi lolu hlelo luklanyelwe ukukhipha izinsimbi eziyigugu zokuhlanzeka okuphezulu. I-Mint okwamanje isebenzisa uhlelo ngezinga elincane ngenkathi iklama imboni. Kwethenjwa ukuthi ngokulahla amakhulukhulu amathani emfucumfucu ye-elekthronikhi unyaka ngamunye, kungakhiqizwa amakhulu amakhilogremu ezinsimbi eziyigugu. Ubuye wathi lesi sitshalo kufanele sisebenze "eminyakeni embalwa ezayo."

Mayelana negolide e-UK

Ngokusho kwe-Financial Times, idatha yakamuva evela ku-Eurostat, ihhovisi lezibalo le-European Union, libonisa ukuthi igolide laseBrithani elithunyelwa eSwitzerland, indawo ebalulekile yemboni yokucwenga igolide, likhuphuke laya kumathani angu-798 ezinyangeni eziyisithupha zokuqala zalo nyaka lisuka kumathani angu-83 ngesikhathi esifanayo ngonyaka odlule. Leli nani lokuthekelisa eliyizigidigidi ezingama-29 zama-euro, elilingana cishe nama-30% okukhiqizwa kwegolide kwaminyaka yonke emhlabeni.

Ukuthengiswa kwegolide kwaseBrithani kukhuphuke cishe ngokuphindwe kashumi, abahlaziyi bephakamisa ukuthi insimbi iyasuka emagumbini angaphansi eLondon iye ezindaweni zokuhluza eSwitzerland futhi ekugcineni iye kubathengi e-Asia phakathi kwamanani entengo ehlayo. Njengoba izintengo zegolide zisalokhu zibheke phansi, izinga lokuthengiswa kwe-UK engxenyeni yokuqala yalo nyaka lingasho ukuthi abatshalizimali basentshonalanga balahlekelwa umdlandla wabo wegolide nokuthi ubunikazi bushintsha ngezinga elikhulu.

ILondon ingenye yezikhungo zemakethe yegolide yomhlaba wonke, lapho abamabhange belinganisela ukuthi izindlu ezingaphansi zeDolobha, okuhlanganisa neBhange LaseNgilandi, ziphethe cishe amathani angu-10 000 egolide, iningi lawo liphethwe abatshalizimali namabhange amakhulu. Ukuhlaziywa kwebhange lase-Australia le-Macquarie kukholelwa ukuthi ngenxa yokuthi i-United Kingdom ayinazo izinsiza zegolide, izimali ze-ETF zegolide (impahla esekelwe egolide, elandelela ukuguquguquka kwentengo yegolide yezinto eziphuma kuzo zezimali) iwumthombo oyinhloko wegolide layo. Inqwaba yegolide elithengiswe eBhilithane kwamanye amazwe engxenyeni yokuqala yalonyaka liqhamuke kulokhu. Ngokusho koMkhandlu Wegolide Womhlaba, idatha ekhishwe ngaphambilini ibonisa ukuthi engxenyeni yesibili ka-2012 i-ETF yegolide iqongelele ukuphuma kwamathani angu-402.2 egolide, ngokungangabazeki ukuthengiswa kwe-UK kubalele ingxenye yayo eyinhloko.

Kusukela ekuqaleni kwalo nyaka, abatshalizimali bezimakethe bathengise igolide ngezinga elikhulu, okwenza intengo yegolide yehle kakhulu. Ngenkathi igagasi lakamuva lokudayiswa kwabatshalizimali seliqale ukwehla, njengoba igolide lifinyelele phezulu ezinyangeni ezimbili ngoMsombuluko, amanani asalokhu ekhuphuka eduze nokwehla kweminyaka emithathu. Esimweni sokuwa kwamanani egolide, abatshalizimali baseBrithani baqala ukuthengisa igolide ngezizathu ezifana nokugcinwa kwenani; Ngesikhathi esifanayo, ukwehla kwezintengo zegolide emhlabeni wonke kuphinde kwagqugquzela ukukhula kwesidingo segolide emhlabeni wonke, ikakhulukazi ezimakethe ezisafufusa zase-Asia. Engxenyeni yokuqala yalo nyaka, isidingo saseChina segolide sikhuphuke ngo-54% kusukela ngonyaka odlule, ngokusho kweChina Gold Association. I-London Bullion Market Association ithe umthamo wokuhweba ngegolide emakethe yaseLondon ngoJuni wawungamathani angu-900, obiza amaRandi ayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingu-39, irekhodi leminyaka engu-12, futhi isidingo esingokomzimba segolide elivela e-Asia, ikakhulukazi i-China ne-India, sasinamandla kakhulu, okuphinde kwakhuthaza abatshalizimali baseNtshonalanga njenge-United Kingdom ukuba bathengise igolide.

Njengoba igolide lalisuka eNtshonalanga liya e-Asia, ibhizinisi labahwebi kanye nezincibilikisi laqala. Engxenyeni yokuqala yonyaka abancibilikisi baseSwitzerland abanjengoMattel babenza ibhizinisi elisheshayo, bancibilikisa amabha amakhulu angama-400-ounce avela kumagumbi angaphansi aseLondon futhi bawaphonsa emikhiqizweni emincane ethandwa abathengi base-Asia. Omunye umhwebi omkhulu wegolide uthe: “AbaseSwitzerland basebenza amashifu amathathu noma amane ngosuku ukugcina izincibilikisi zisebenza ngokunganqamuki.
