Emas2U.com – Harga emas dijangka meningkat sebanyak kira-kira 10% tahun ini, menurut seorang hartawan barang kemas terkemuka.
Choon Yee Seong, pengerusi francais barang kemas popular, berkata para pelabur akan berduyun-duyun untuk aset selamat tahun ini berikutan ketidaktentuan dalam pasaran kewangan.
Beliau berkata kemungkinan Rizab Persekutuan menaikkan kadar faedah empat kali pada 2019 juga akan menyaksikan aliran dana ke pasaran emas.
“Emas adalah aset selamat dan dari masa lampau kita dapat melihat dengan jelas bahawa pada saat turun naik yang besar di pasaran kewangan, harga emas akan meningkat,” kata Choon kepada FMT selepas menghadiri mesyuarat agung tahunan syarikat itu semalam.
Emas kini berharga AS $ 1,176 (RM4,833) setiap troy auns.
Choon menjangkakan ia akan berdagang antara US $ 1,300 (RM5,343) hingga AS $ 1,400 (RM5,754) satu troy auns untuk sepanjang tahun ini.
Poh Kong mencatat perolehan lebih RM1 bilion untuk tahun kewangan berakhir 31 Julai 2018, dan keuntungan selepas cukai sebanyak RM23.4 juta.
Harga tertinggi emas dicatatkan pada Julai 2011 pada harga AS $ 1,911 (RM7,854) per troy auns, manakala harga paling rendah ialah AS $ 1,167 (RM4,767) per troy auns pada Ogos 2018.
Ditanya sama ada pulangan cukai jualan dan perkhidmatan pada September tahun lepas memberi impak terhadap penjualan, Choon berkata bahawa cukai telah diserahkan kepada pelanggan dan oleh itu tidak menjejaskan syarikat.
Poh Kong kini mempunyai margin sebanyak 20% pada produknya.
Syarikat itu berkata bahawa prospeknya untuk 2019 adalah kenaikan harga kerana kenaikan jangkaan harga emas dan keutamaan pelabur untuk memilih emas berbanding kelas aset lain pada saat turun naik yang hebat.

PETALING JAYA: Prices of gold are set to increase by about 10% this year, according to a prominent jewellery tycoon.
Choon Yee Seong, the chairman of popular jewellery franchise Poh Kong, said investors will be flocking to safe haven assets this year in light of the heightened volatility in financial markets.
He said the possibility of the Federal Reserve raising interest rates four times in 2019 will also witness funds flow to the gold market.
“Gold is a safe haven asset and from the past we can clearly see that in times of great volatility in financial markets, the price of gold will increase,” Choon told FMT after attending the company’s annual general meeting yesterday.
Gold is currently priced at US$1,176 (RM4,833) per troy ounce.
Choon expects it to trade between US$1,300 (RM5,343) to US$1,400 (RM5,754) per troy ounce for the rest of the year.
Poh Kong recorded a revenue of over RM1 billion for the financial year ended July 31, 2018, and profit after tax of RM23.4 million.
The highest price for gold was recorded in July 2011 at US$1,911 (RM7,854) per troy ounce, while the lowest price was US$1,167 (RM4,767) per troy ounce in August 2018.
Asked if the return of the sales and services tax in September last year had an impact on sales, Choon says that the tax was passed on to the customers and as such did not affect the company.
Poh Kong currently enjoys margins of 20% on its products.
The company said that its outlook for 2019 is bullish because of the expected rise in gold prices and the preference of investors for choosing gold against other asset classes in times of great volatility.
