All week I’ve been seeing references to this headline:
“China could announce that it holds 30,000 tons of gold to back the Yuan/Renminbi.”
As a Forex trader, the story took me by surprise, even though China has been stockpiling for years, and is the world’s largest gold producer. Also, it’s not like China to pull this trigger so fast. However, in the South China Sea last week, the US started militarily terrorizing China with war ships and fighter jets – and China warned (in so many polite words) that the US planted the seeds of its own doom.
So, maybe that’s what this is all about.
