TOKYO, 23 May 2015 – BullionVault is making live gold trading accessible 24/7 to investors using Japanese Yen, reports the Nikkei newspaper, Japan's leading finance and business daily.
"Japanese Yen has been added to the existing US Dollar, British Pound and Euro trading offer," says the Nikkei. Staying open 24 hours a day means "Japanese investors can trade in the middle of the night while US and other markets are open and when major economic data is published."
Looking at the costs of the new service – launched as Bullion Japan – "Gold bullion can be bought at retail shops," says the Nikkei. "However, the prices are higher."
Trading directly with each other through the BullionVault, the paper reports, Japanese investors "can reduce their trading costs to less than half."
