On June 23, Chow Tai Fook fell 3.03% in regular trading, trading at HK$11.86/share, with turnover of approximately HK$84.33 million. Peer Luk Fook Holdings also declined 2.29% on the same day, reflecting broad sector pressure.
On the news front, international gold prices have weakened significantly, with COMEX gold futures falling for six consecutive weeks and London spot gold breaching the key $4,200/oz support level, retreating over 25% from its intra-year high. Domestically, multiple brand gold jewelry prices have dropped to approximately 1,260 yuan/gram, down nearly 450 yuan from the January peak of over 1,700 yuan/gram.
The sustained gold price decline directly impacts Chow Tai Fook's inventory valuation and consumer purchasing willingness. In-store foot traffic has notably decreased, with multiple outlets launching promotions including 200 yuan/gram discounts. Goldman Sachs this week cut its year-end gold target by $500 to $4,900/oz, citing reduced Fed rate-cut expectations and ETF outflows as key headwinds for precious metals in the near term.
