    J. Rotbart & Co. Releases Analysis of Asian Gold Holding Trends Ahead of India Gold Conference 2026

    In this episode of Global Economic Press, Alex Brady discusses the latest analysis from J. Rotbart & Co., an international precious-metals brokerage and storage firm, which has released its findings on Asian gold holding trends ahead of the India Gold Conference 2026. The analysis reveals a significant shift in gold demand and supply dynamics across Asia, with a particular focus on India. Despite a 5.9% decline in gold demand in India, spending reached a record 21 billion United States dollars, and recycled gold supply fell to its lowest level in eleven quarters. This trend indicates that Asian households and investors are opting to hold onto their physical gold rather than selling it, even as local prices have increased by 59% compared to the previous year. For more information, visit J. Rotbart & Co.'s website. The podcast further explores how these trends are not isolated to India but are part of a broader regional pattern. Southeast Asian countries, including Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam, have seen an increase in bar and coin demand, while China's central bank continues to add to its reserves. The analysis highlights the importance of Hong Kong and Singapore as key hubs for gold storage and trading, reflecting mainland Chinese demand and policy. J. Rotbart & Co. emphasizes that the center of gravity in the physical gold market is shifting towards Asian vaults, with policy changes like India's import duty rise impacting these hubs first. This episode underscores the importance of understanding the structure and jurisdiction of precious metal ownership for investors worldwide.

    Cloud 9 Vets calls on the CMA to add at-home pet euthanasia to the new mandatory vet price list

    In this episode of Global Economic Press, Alex Brady discusses a significant development in the veterinary services market in the United Kingdom. Cloud 9 Vets, a national provider of at-home pet euthanasia and in-home veterinary care, is urging the Competition and Markets Authority to include at-home euthanasia as a separate entry on the mandatory vet price list. This request aims to distinguish between euthanasia services provided at a veterinary practice and those conducted at a pet owner's home, as they involve different costs and service levels. For more information about Cloud 9 Vets' services, visit their website at https://www.cloud9vets.co.uk. The Competition and Markets Authority's draft Veterinary Services Market Investigation Order 2026 currently requires practices to publish prices for 36 defined services, but it does not differentiate between in-practice and at-home euthanasia. Cloud 9 Vets argues that this lack of distinction hinders pet owners' ability to make informed decisions. Their research indicates that a significant number of pet owners are unaware of the availability of at-home euthanasia services, and many express a preference for having a plan in place for end-of-life care. Cloud 9 Vets has also requested that the Competition and Markets Authority allow veterinary businesses to meet cremation disclosure requirements by linking to a list of regional crematoria, rather than naming a single provider, to ensure accuracy for clients. The consultation on the draft Order remains open until the 20th of August 2026.
