Gold output, consumption to stay robust in 2024
2023年我国黄金消费量同比增长8.78%
China consumed 1,089.7 metric tons of gold last year, up 8.78 percent year-on-year, according to data released by the China Gold Association.
中国黄金协会发布的数据显示，2023年全国黄金消费量为1089.69吨，同比增长8.78%。
Growing risk-aversion by investors due to a volatile global financial environment has contributed to the "gold rush", said Zhao Xiangbin, chief strategist at Beijing Gold and Forex Fortune Investment Management.

赵相宾认为，受投资者对避险资产青睐的推动，2024年我国的黄金消费将进一步增长。
"The rise in gold prices has been supported by geopolitical tensions and frequent unforeseen events in recent years. The tense geopolitical situation and unexpected prospects of the US elections later this year are likely to provide a solid foundation for gold output and consumption growth, as gold is known for its strong safe-haven appeal," he said.
赵相宾称：“近年来，紧张的地缘政治局势和频发的不可预见事件为金价上涨提供了支撑。地缘政治局势紧张和2024美国大选的不可预见前景很可能为黄金产量和消费增长提供坚实的基础，因为黄金具有公认的强大避险能力。”
"The market anticipates positive consumer sentiment, stimulated by expectations that gold prices will reach new highs. China's gold industry has increased its investment in new technologies and capital in recent years, which will further boost gold output and consumption."
“在金价将再创新高的预期刺激下，市场预期消费情绪积极乐观。中国黄金行业近年来加大了新技术和资金投入，这将进一步促进黄金产量和消费量的增长。”
