London appetite for gold bars, coins rises on Brexit nerves- RTRS

As Reuters reports, the demand for bullion bars and coins has picked up since the latest polls suggested that the 'leave' campaign is gaining support, with online polls by ICM and YouGov showing at the weekend it had taken a 4-5 percentage point lead ahead of the June 23 referendum.

Ross Norman, chief executive of Sharps Pixley - a gold showroom in London's smart Mayfair district, noted "It seems to have sunk into people's consciousness that Brexit is a real possibility now. All stocks are being bought out in advance of even being shipped."
