Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:

People who still believe official central bank data about gold reserves may do well to read today's analysis from gold researcher Jan Nieuwenhuijs, who examines customs export data from the United Kingdom, where the major physical gold market is located, and discovers that plenty of gold was shipped to China in May even as the People's Bank of China was saying it had paused its gold purchases.

Nieuwenhuijs writes: "'Unreported' PBoC gold purchases exploded when $300 billion in foreign exchange reserves from the Russian central bank were frozen by the West early 2022 due to the war. Notably, the UK began exporting 400-ounce bars to China in huge tonnages at the same time. 

"Coincidence? I think not. Ever since then China has taken over gold price control from the West and broken the gold price's correlation with 'real rates.'"

The UK export data, Nieuwenhuijs adds, indicates that "UK gold exports to China are destined for the PBoC -- although probably not every ounce of these flows is for the Chinese central bank. Clearly, the PBoC is accumulating more gold than it wants to disclose."

Nieuwenhuijs' analysis is headlined "PBoC Gold Conduit Revealed -- Chinese Central Bank Did Not Stop Buying Gold in May" and it's posted at the Gainesville Coins internet site here:
