US gold bullion coin sales sink in June to 10-month low:
Report Reuters | Jun 29, 2013, 11.39AM IST NEW YORK: Sales of American Eagle gold bullion coins plunged to 57,000 ounces in June, their lowest since August last year, as physical demand from retail investors and collectors sank, according to data on the US Mint's website.
The total was down 19% from May and a fraction of the 209,500 ounces sold in April when a historic sell-off in gold released years of pent-up demand from retail investors. |
