The People’s Bank of China continues to buy unprecedented amounts of gold as the global financial is deleveraging -- that is, investors exchange credit assets for gold.
In 2024 the Chinese central bank covertly bought 570 tonnes, encouraging gold's ascent in global international reserves by 4%, the largest gain in four decades.

Long before fiat currency, digital dollars, or cryptocurrency, America's Founders sought to anchor the young nation's economy in gold and silver -- that is, sound money.
In fact, on April 2, 1792 -- 233 years ago -- President George Washington signed legislation that established America's monetary system.

Germany has the second-largest gold reserves in the world (on paper, at least). The country's official holdings clock in at 3,352 tons, behind only the United States' 8,133 tons.
About 37% of Germany's gold, 1,236 tons, is held at the New York Federal Reserve. The gold was moved to the U.S. for safekeeping in the aftermath of World War 2, when the threat of Soviet tanks charging through the Fulda Gap loomed large.

Comex's reporting on the April gold contract has been a roller coaster. To recap:
The preliminary print for the March 28 report issued on Friday night showed 55,878 contracts standing for delivery. That was revised upward by 50,784 to 106,662 on the final print early Monday afternoon.

Gov. Spencer Cox put a stop to -- or at least paused -- Utah's drive toward transacting business using gold.
The governor vetoed HB306, sponsored by Rep. Ken Ivory, R-West Jordan, a bill that would have hired a company to set up a system that would enable the state to pay vendors using gold, if that's how the vendors choose to be paid.

I checked Friday's final total open interest numbers on the Comex, and the change from the preliminary report in gold was absolutely incomprehensible, as it rose from +13,558 contracts up to a mind-blowing +62,187 contracts. That was the result of gold open interest in April blowing out by +45,420 Comex contracts, and June open interest by +16,556 contracts.

Maybe the final print of today’s CME Group gold report for trading on March 28 will be revised. The final report shows that the open interest on the April gold contract increased by 45,420 from the preliminary report to 106,662 contracts. March 28 was the last report before first notice, so that is a doubling of metal set for physical delivery. ...

Germany's conservatives sound the alarm over gold reserves in the U.S.

Can the United States be trusted with Germany's gold?
Its leader is trying to cripple the country's most important industry. His deputy thinks it's a pathetic freeloader. The man who has their ear is throwing what look a lot like Nazi salutes and openly interfering in its elections to support a far-right party that its own intelligence service thinks is a threat to the constitution.

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
We are so close to victory now. Gold is all over mainstream financial news organizations now even as they strive not to expose the real reasons for the monetary metal's spectacular rise: the collapse of the derivatives-based gold price suppression system.

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
Gold advocate and financial adviser Peter Grandich is London metals trader Andrew Maguire's guest on this week's edition of Kinesis Money's "Live from the Vault" program, and their command of the history of the monetary metals of the last several decades is likely to fascinate and delight those who follow GATA's work.
