Overall
, gold
sales
in Dubai remained relatively unchanged
at the end
of 2002 despite violent fluctuations throughout the year.
Besides
, they were at their highest in March
while
the weakest
sales
figures could be observed in July and September. In the first month of 2002, they stood at 200
million
dirhams
and rose slightly to reach about 225
million
in February.
This
was followed by another increase,
although
much steeper, in March when
sales
were almost 125
million
dirhams
higher than in February.
However
,
this
upward trend was suddenly broken and
sales
plummeted dramatically over the next 4 months to reach a little over 100
million
dirhams
in July. August
sales
saw a significant rise back to January levels as figures nearly doubled, but they dropped again in September to the same level as they were in July. There was a small increase of about 100
million
dirhams
in October, after which the figure levelled off and remained relatively static over the
last
two months of 2002.
