Er vinden enkele drastische veranderingen plaats binnen het zilvercomplex.
De vraag bij de grootste importeur van zilver, India, explodeert! De invoer over het vierde kwartaal zal stijgen met 50% (jaar-op-jaar) volgens specialisten.
MUMBAI (ET India Times): India, the world’s largest importer of silver, could import 250-300 tonnes of silver during the quarter, said Prithviraj Kothari, president of the Bombay Bullion Association.
“Silver prices are in a comfortable range and people are considering it as a buying opportunity,” said Harshad Ajmera, proprietor with Kolkata-based wholesaler, JJ Gold House.
“If one were to take long-term view, even present levels are good for investment in silver. Demand is mostly from the physical side and it is natural because after it reached new highs this year, everybody’s attention is on gold and silver,” said Gnanasekar Thiagarajan, director with Commtrendz Research.
Niet enkel in Azië is zilver booming, ook in de VS loopt de verkoop van het fysieke edelmetaal de spuigaten uit!
De verkoop van Silver Eagle munten zit nu al fors boven de recordverkoop van 2010 van 34.662.500 munten.
Langs de aanbodzijde wordt de situatie voor zilver steeds krapper.
China, een belangrijke leverancier van het witte edelmetaal, heeft z’n exportquota voor 2012 al met 5% verlaagd!
Via Bloomberg:
China reduced export quotas for silver, tin and minor metals, according to a statement on the Ministry of Commerce’s Web site today.
