China added to its gold reserves for an eighth consecutive month, with economic and geopolitical risks as well as a desire to move away from the U.S. dollar driving the purchases.

Assessing a state sales tax on the purchase of gold and silver is becoming an outmoded, indeed outrageous, practice -- but a small number of U.S. states still engage in it.

But has anyone told China?

A big change has occurred in the gold market since Russia invaded Ukraine and the West seized the euro and dollar denominated assets from Russia’s central bank.

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:
