Core Viewpoint - The recent tax policy adjustment on gold has led to a significant decline in sales and market activity in Shenzhen's gold trading hub, known as "China's Gold First Street," as the cost of purchasing non-investment gold has increased due to a reduction in tax input deduction from 13% to 6% [1][2][3].
