China’s Four Largest Gold-Backed ETFs See Record $980 Million Daily Outflows

Chinese gold-backed exchange-traded funds experienced unprecedented withdrawals, surpassing the previous record by 2.5 times amid consecutive days of investor sell-offs.

Fact Check
The statement is strongly supported by multiple, high-authority sources. The primary evidence comes from a Bloomberg news article, a top-tier financial data and news provider, which explicitly states that its own compiled data shows a record daily outflow of $980 million from China's gold ETFs. This claim is directly corroborated by another financial news service, AAStocks, which reports the same figure (approximately 8 billion yuan, equivalent to US$980 million) and attributes the data to Bloomberg, creating a consistent and verifiable chain of reporting. Furthermore, the official Bloomberg Business social media account repeats the claim, reinforcing the organization's confidence in its own reporting. While the raw data from the World Gold Council or EPFR is not directly presented, these organizations are identified as the authoritative bodies for this type of data, lending high plausibility to the claim. There are no contradictions in the provided evidence. The consistency across multiple credible financial news sources provides a high degree of confidence in the statement's truthfulness.
