"The U.S. Treasury denies the claim, insisting the stock is accounted for regularly"

You mean the government would lie to us? /s

I thought our dollar wasn’t backed by gold and that WAS the problem. Now there’s concern because the gold we do have is being secreted away?

U.S. central banks may have less than half the gold they claim to possess in their vaults

Yep, I believe it. The Central banks all over the world must be run by the dumbest people in the world.

I remember buying a bunch of mint European gold coins 3-4 years ago. They were 100 years old or more. They were selling slightly above melt value back then when gold was around $400 per ounce. And the Central banks of Europe were selling these gold coins like hotcakes.

Apparently, even a yo-yo like me could see a bullish commodity trend and these Central Bankers couldn't...

Be careful, the dollar might rally. Reason being is that ALL Central banks are trashing their currencies... Not just us.

Let’s see, the nut-cakes at WorldNutDaily quote the nut-cakes at GATA.

The same nut-cakes who claimed when gold was at $250 that the evil central bankers were manipulating the price and who now claim, with gold over $900 that the evil central bankers are manipulating the price.

Perfect!

Been keeping my eye on it. The current trending dollar slide started in earnest back around September, IIRC.

The *Powers that Be* are once again creating crisis and trying to impose this crisis on countries with exploding economies.

The ol’ if you can’t beat um, cut them down to size.

Good buy. I did basically the same thing when I first joined the world of poor working slobs. It was almost 10 years ago and to say the least I am very pleased with my investment.
