LONDON, 28 June 2016 – Private investors are "booking profit" on gold bought ahead of last week's Brexit referendum shock says global news-wire Thomson Reuters today, citing BullionVault data and comment as proof.
"The chief executive of online platform BullionVault said on Monday that while buying had risen sharply," Reuters reports, "its users had overall been net sellers since the Brexit vote became apparent on Friday, liquidating a quarter of a ton of gold."
"Our users bought a lot of gold going into this crisis, and some are selling to bank substantial profits from Friday's shock," the news-wire quotes BullionVault founder and CEO Paul Tustain.
