Jan Nieuwenhuijs: Central banks admit they can regain solvency with gold revaluation
9p ET Thursday, August 3, 2023
Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
Gold market researcher Jan Nieuwenhuijs notes today that some European central banks, particularly the Geman Bundesbank, openly acknowledge that national gold reserves, as registered in central bank gold revaluation accounts, are capable of restoring a central bank's solvency against any and all losses from their holdings of government bonds.
That is, for central banks with gold reserves, revaluing gold upward is a powerful mechanism of money creation -- and of currency and debt devaluation (call it repudiation if you'd like) -- and central banks with balance sheets showing losses may eventually be on the same side of the market as gold investors, and indeed already may be surreptitiously, as they are surreptitious in most important things they do.
This is essentially what the U.S. economists Paul Brodsky and Lee Quaintance wrote in a study brought to your attention by GATA 11 years ago --

-- and what the Scottish economist Peter Millar wrote in a study brought to your attention by GATA 16 years ago:

Nieuwenhuijs' analysis is headlined "German Central Bank:Gold Revaluation Account Underlies Soundness of Balance Sheet" and it's posted at the Gainesville Coins internet site here:
