I remember the early 1970s when FRANCE was buying all the US gold it could at $32.00 an ounce.

per an advertisement China recently completed a storage vault that will hold 200,000 tons of gold. just like a horse, gold is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it and if necessary one can eat a horse
