8 days agoChina’s gold tax incentive rollback jolts bullion demand outlook as crude volatility persists globally

China’s decision to remove certain gold tax incentives has generated a sharp watch response across commodity desks as global traders recalibrate demand expectations heading into year-end. Market participants suggest this could soften China’s retail bullion pull, especially among low to mid-tier consumer buys, which have historically played a material marginal elasticity role in physical gold demand. This also coincides with Brent crude showing mixed price action with a recent recovery bounce following a three-month decline led by supply imbalance narratives and freight congestion distortions. With commodity correlation tightening again, cross-hedgers are preparing additional vol-shock defenses.
