【彭博】-- 中國4月份連續第六個月增加黃金儲備，凸顯了在黃金價格接近紀錄高位且貿易戰持續發酵的背景下，中國增持黃金的努力。 根據周三公佈的數據，中國人民銀行持有的黃金儲備上月增加了約7萬金衡盎司。在過去六個月中，總計成長了近100萬盎司，相當於約30噸。 今年以來，金價已連創新高，主要得益於各國央行同步增持黃金，以在美元之外實現持倉的多元化。金價的上漲 —— 今年以來漲幅近30% —— 還受到貿易戰引發的金融市場動盪、對美國資產的擔憂以及避險需求上升的推動。 中國出現了投資者湧入黃金的跡象，上海期貨交易所的黃金交易量在最近幾周創下紀錄。國內強勁的需求也促使中國人民銀行向商業銀行發放新的黃金進口配額。 與此同時，中國當局採取措施提振經濟，為本周晚些時候與美國高級官員的貿易談判鋪平道路。周三，北京下調了政策利率，並調降存準率，凸顯了提振成長的努力。 推薦閱讀：川普貿易戰硝煙下 「黃金熱」席捲中國...
