move out/bring in Explanation: For instance: While some people are busy moving gold out of the country, others bring it in. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 9 mins (2017-12-09 15:04:55 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Sorry: It should read as follows: While some people are busy moving *copper* out of the country, others are bringing gold in. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 10 mins (2017-12-09 15:05:53 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- or: bringing in gold. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 22 mins (2017-12-09 15:18:41 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- a more concise version: While some move copper out (of the country), others bring in gold. Given that this is a headline, it's better to shorten it. |
