Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the recent announcement by Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC) to suspend certain gold accumulation services, indicating a shift in the bank's approach to gold investments amid rising volatility in gold prices [3][4][6]. Summary by Sections Announcement Details - ICBC will suspend the acceptance of applications for gold accumulation services starting November 3, 2025, including account openings, active accumulation, new fixed accumulation plans, and physical gold withdrawals [4]. Reasons for the Policy Change - The bank's decision is driven by two main factors: 1. Increased volatility in gold prices, which have fluctuated significantly from $3,200 to $4,300 per ounce and then down to $3,900 in a short period [8][10]. 2. A surge in demand for physical gold among investors, leading to concerns about potential gold runs due to limited physical gold reserves [13][15]. Market Implications - The restriction on physical gold purchases is seen as a measure to protect investors from significant losses due to high volatility and to prevent a potential gold run [12][15]. - Contrary to some opinions that this policy is bearish for gold prices, the article argues that limiting access to physical gold may actually indicate future scarcity, which could be bullish for gold prices in the long run [16][18][20]. Current Market Conditions - The current trading range for spot gold is between $3,950 and $4,040, with potential movements depending on whether it breaks above or below this range [23]. - The article advises caution in trading gold at this time, suggesting that it is not an optimal moment for significant investments [23]. Educational Offerings - The company plans to offer a course that will analyze gold price trends and other asset movements, providing insights into when to re-enter the gold market [24][26].

Core Viewpoint - The new tax regulations on gold in China are reshaping the investment logic in the gold market, particularly affecting the trading of physical gold and promoting alternatives like gold ETFs [1][3]. Policy Changes - The new tax policy, effective from November 1, 2025, introduces a dual classification management system for gold transactions, categorizing them into on-market and off-market, both subject to a 13% value-added tax (VAT) [4][6]. - The policy distinguishes between investment gold (e.g., gold bars with purity over 99.95%) and non-investment gold (e.g., jewelry and industrial gold) [6][7]. - The new regulations impose stricter VAT collection on physical gold, reducing the tax credits available to businesses, which may lead to increased costs passed on to consumers [7][8]. Market Impact - For investment gold, institutions can still obtain tax-deductible invoices when purchasing from gold exchanges, but the sales to downstream dealers will only allow for regular invoices, reducing their tax deduction capabilities [8][11]. - For jewelry purchases, the input tax deduction drops from 13% to 6%, potentially increasing costs by 60-70 yuan per gram of gold, which could lead to higher retail prices [12][13]. - The new tax structure aims to curb speculative behaviors in the gold market and promote orderly trading practices [16][17]. Investment Strategy - The long-awaited tax reform signals a shift in asset allocation strategies, encouraging investors to consider gold ETFs and futures instead of physical gold, which may become less attractive due to rising costs [15][17]. - The long-term value of gold as a hedge against macroeconomic uncertainties remains intact, with gold ETFs providing a more accessible and cost-effective investment vehicle [24][28]. Gold ETF Advantages - Gold ETFs allow investors to trade gold like stocks, with lower entry costs and no stamp duty, making them a favorable option in the current tax environment [30][31]. - The structure of gold ETFs addresses common pain points for retail investors, such as high storage costs and complex purchasing processes associated with physical gold [31][32]. - The shift towards gold ETFs reflects a broader understanding of gold's role in asset allocation, moving away from the notion that physical gold is the only form of investment [33][34].
