Moderate 3% rise in global gold demand

Global gold demand increased three per cent year-on-year to 1,249 tonne during the April-June quarter of the current year, amid a high price environment, World Gold Council (WGC) said in a report on Thursday. Strong gold investment flows largely fuelled quarterly growth, as an increasingly unpredictable geopolitical environment and price momentum sustained demand, according to WGC's Q2/2025 Gold Demand Trends report. 'Gold ETF investment remained a key driver of total demand, with inflows of 170 tonnes over the quarter, compared with small outflows in Q2 2024. Asian-listed funds were major contributors at 70 tonne, keeping pace with US flows. Combined with record inflows in the first quarter, global gold ETF desmand reached 397 tonne, the highest first-half total since 2020,' the report added. Meanwhile, the total bar and coin investment also increased 11 per cent year-on-year, adding 307 tonne. Chinese investors led the way with a 44 per cent year-on-year increase to 115 tonne, while Indian investors continued to add to their holdings, totalling 46 tonne in the second quarter. Divergent trends emerged in Western markets as European net investment more than doubled to 28 tonne, while US bar and coin demand halved to 9 tonne in the second quarter. Central banks continued to buy, adding 166 tonne in the April-June quarter this year, led by Poland, Turkey and Azerbaijan. Despite this deceleration, central bank buying remained at significantly elevated levels due to ongoing economic and geopolitical uncertainty. 'Our annual central bank survey shows that 95 per cent of reserve managers believe that global central bank gold reserves will increase over the next 12 months,' the report said. Jewellery demand continued to decline, with the volume of consumption down 14 per cent and nearing low levels last seen in 2020 during the Covid pandemic. Jewellery demand in China was down 20 per cent, and Indian demand fell 17 per cent year-on-year. However, in value terms, the global jewellery market increased to a total of $36 billion. 'The overall jewellery has dropped to 341 tonnes but increased in value to about $36 billion, which is interesting. From a Chinese demand perspective, it's down 20 per cent in terms of volume. In by 17 per cent in terms of volume. But again, in terms of value, it's significantly higher than last year,' Sachin Jain, WGC Regional CEO - India, told PTI. Further, the report revealed that the total gold supply increased 3 per cent to 1,249 tonnes, with mine production up marginally to a new second quarter record. Recycling increased 4 per cent year-on-year but stayed relatively subdued considering the high price environment. 'Global markets have navigated a volatile start to the year marked by trade tensions, unpredictable US policy shifts and frequent geopolitical flashpoints.

'US Itself Continues To Engage In Trade With Russia': China On Trump's Tariff Threats

Last Updated: China has strongly rejected US accusations of aiding Russia and condemned new US tariffs on countries buying sanctioned Russian oil. China has hit back at the United States over its tariffs, after the Donald Trump administration said it would levy tariffs of up to 500 per cent on countries that purchase sanctioned Russian oil. The United States had also expressed displeasure at China's continued purchases of sanctioned Iranian oil and its sales of over USD 15 billion worth of dual-use technology goods to Russia. Addressing the media over the same, China's deputy permanent representative to the United Nations, Geng Shuang, refuted accusations made by the US representative against China at a UN Security Council meeting on the issue of arms supplies to Ukraine. 'I responded to such accusations on multiple occasions in past meetings. Since the US insists on repeating the same rhetoric, I find it necessary to set the record straight once again," Shuang said. 'First, China is not the creator of the Ukraine crisis, nor is it a party to the conflict. China has never provided lethal weapons to any party involved in the conflict," he added. 'We have always strictly controlled the export of dual-use items, including drones. Second, the UN Security Council has not imposed sanctions on any party of the conflict," he said. 'China maintains normal trade relations with both Russia and Ukraine, in full compliance with international law and without breaching any international obligations. China's legitimate and lawful rights and interests must not be infringed upon," he said. 'Third, the Ukraine crisis is currently at a critical juncture, with a genuine prospect for a political resolution. The US cannot, on the one hand, ask China to play a constructive role in ending the war, while on the other hand, continuously smear and pressure China," he added. 'We once again urge the US to stop playing the blame game and scapegoating others, and instead contribute positively to efforts for a ceasefire, de-escalation, and the promotion of a dialogue and negotiation," he said. US and Chinese officials met in Stockholm on Monday for more than five hours of talks aimed at resolving economic disputes with a goal of extending their truce on a trade war by three months. China is facing an August 12 deadline to reach a durable tariff agreement with Trump's administration, after Beijing and Washington reached preliminary deals in May and June to end escalating tit-for-tat tariffs and a cut-off of rare earth minerals. China's remarks came as Donald Trump also announced 25 per cent tariffs on imports from India, plus a penalty for New Delhi's purchases from Russia. 'Remember, while India is our friend, we have, over the years, done relatively little business with them because their tariffs are far too high, among the highest in the World, and they have the most strenuous and obnoxious non-monetary trade barriers of any Country," Trump said, adding that the US has a 'massive" trade deficit with India. Disapproving of New Delhi's defence deals with Moscow, the US President said India has 'always bought a vast majority of their military equipment from Russia". They 'are Russia's largest buyer of energy, along with China, at a time when everyone wants Russia to stop the killing in Ukraine," he had said. view comments First Published: News world 'US Itself Continues To Engage In Trade With Russia': China On Trump's Tariff Threats Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

BorgWarner wins dual inverter supply deal from major Chinese OEM for hybrid vehicles

BorgWarner has secured a fresh contract to supply its advanced dual inverter systems to a leading Chinese original equipment manufacturer (OEM) for their upcoming range of hybrid vehicles . This deal marks a continuation of the two companies' collaboration that began in 2021 and is set to enter mass production by the end of 2025. 'We are pleased to once again win dual inverter business from this important customer. This milestone signifies a new phase of collaboration in the new energy vehicle sector,' said Dr. Stefan Demmerle, Vice President of BorgWarner Inc. and President and General Manager, PowerDrive Systems. The dual inverter system from BorgWarner enables synchronous control of two electric motors through a single controller, significantly enhancing packaging flexibility and installation convenience. Leveraging proprietary packaging technology, the system integrates multiple power modules into a compact design, helping reduce overall vehicle weight and cost—key considerations in hybrid vehicle development. A standout feature of the technology is its advanced power module design, which offers up to 50 per cent lower thermal resistance compared to single-sided cooling. This translates into a higher power density, meeting the growing demands of China's stringent CLTC (China Light-Duty Vehicle Test Cycle) efficiency standards. The system's adaptive battery voltage regulation also broadens the motor's constant power and efficiency ranges, ultimately improving overall system performance. BorgWarner continues to evolve its dual inverter platform with ongoing improvements in system architecture and hardware design. Its third-generation model integrates a high-performance single chip for both DC-DC conversion and dual motor control, with the ability to add high-voltage auxiliary interfaces as per customer needs. Meanwhile, the upcoming fourth-generation variant includes a built-in boost converter and supports optional DC-DC modules, offering greater flexibility for next-generation hybrid vehicle platforms.
