Where has all the Gold gone?

The Yanks won't even let the Germans look at their Gold:

Published on Aug 15, 2013

The world is losing trust in the dollar as a safe haven. A major blow came after Germany's Bundesbank demanded the repatriation of a big chunk of its gold being held in the US. Because as RT's Gayane Chichakyan reports, some are concerned the assets of foreign nations in the Federal Reserve are not secure or even there. The Germans were infuriated when the US Federal reserve didn't even let them examine their own assets properly. Peter Boehringer, the founder and chairman of 'German Precious Metal Association', says that's a bad sign.



A year later - we're still in the dark.

Does it look like when the US got rid of its gold as a basis for their currency they also sold off the gold that they didn't own ?

The gold market has the appearance of a ponzi scheme with the price being controlled by naked shorts. It is quite surprising how stable the gold price has become.

The article below postulates that the USA has an interest in the gold price being volatile downward to suppress the use of gold backed foreign currencies as a reserve of value to prevent the rise of competition to US dollar holdings.

Quote:
Distorting Perceptions of Economic Reality
The Gold Riggers
by PAUL CRAIG ROBERTS and DAVE KRANZLER
The Federal Reserve and its bullion bank agents (JP Morgan, Scotia, and HSBC) have been using naked short-selling to drive down the price of gold since September 2011.  The latest containment effort began in mid-July of this year, after gold had moved higher in price from the beginning of June and was threatening to take out key technical levels, which would have triggered a flood of buying from hedge funds.

The Fed and its agents rig the gold price in the New York Comex futures (paper gold) market. The bullion banks have the ability to print an unlimited supply of gold contracts which are sold in large volumes at times when Comex activity is light.

Generally, on the other side of the trade the buyers of contracts are large hedge funds and other speculators, who use the contracts to speculate on the direction of the gold price. The hedge funds and speculators have no interest in acquiring physical gold and settle their bets in cash, which makes it possible for the bullion banks to sell claims to gold that they cannot back with physical metal. Contracts sold without underlying gold to back them are called “uncovered contracts” or “naked shorts.” It is illegal to engage in naked shorting in the stock and bond markets, but it is permitted in the gold futures market.

The fact that the price of gold is determined in a futures market in which paper claims to gold are traded merely to speculate on price means that the Fed and its bank agents can suppress the price of gold even though demand for physical gold is rising. If there were strict requirements that gold shorts could not be naked and had to be backed by the seller’s possession of physical gold represented by the futures contract, the Federal Reserve and its agents would be unable to control the price of gold, and the gold price would be much higher than it is now.

More on the mystery of Germany's missing gold.

The Germans appear to have given up on getting their gold back. Probably because it would cause the USA severe hardship to replace the missing gold and force up gold price.

Quote:
The reason why? That “safe” German bullion may no longer physically exist. We’ll rely on an extended quote from ZeroHedge to explain the current mess as clearly as possible:

More than 18 months ago, on January 16, 2013 Germany’s central bank, the Bundesbank, announced that it will repatriate to Germany all 374 tonnes it had stored with the Banque de France in Paris, as well as 300 tonnes held in Manhattan by the New York Federal Reserve, by 2020.
Despite a lag of 18 months, the Bundesbank, as the Federal Bank of Germany is often called, has only managed to bring home a tiny 37 tonnes of gold.
A paltry 5 tonnes of that came from the U.S., the rest from Paris. The US Fed holds 45% or roughly $635 billion of the total 3,396 tonnes of gold Germany have in reserve, the world’s second largest gold reserves.
This has prompted, not surprisingly, renewed questions whether Germany’s gold still exists in those Manhattan vaults or if it has been melted down, leased or even sold.
With doubts about the whereabouts of Germany’s gold still prevalent, it appears that either Chancellor Angela Merkel’s ruling coalition or the ECB, has decided to attempt to put the matter to rest.
Bloomberg reported yesterday that the German campaign to repatriate German gold from the U.S. has ended. The Bloomberg story was headlined ‘German Gold Stays in New York in Rebuff to Euro Doubters’ and the first sentence was ‘Germany has decided its gold is safe in American hands.’
However, the leader of the German gold repatriation movement, “Repatriate our Gold,” Peter Boehringer immediately refuted the Bloomberg article.
Germany’s official position at the moment appears to be to downplay this uncomfortable situation while still looking to get its gold back in Germany under its own government’s lock and key.

The greater question — too complicated to get into here — involves increasingly clear evidence that, via paper contracts and ETFs, the international banking system is lending and re-lending physical gold reserves to keep gold’s price under $1300 per ounce as regularly as possible.

That's correct Mr nail, the Chinese have just launched their 21 nation World Bank. He who has the gold holds the power. This is just the beginning of the new world, where power changes hands from the West to the East.

Did they sell Germany's gold to India or China during the GFC?

The German people need to rally their government, it's their gold after all.

interesting thing about gold...

you cant eat it

you cant drink it

you cant even wear it to cover your modesty in comfort. Roll Eyes

you cant drive it

or ride it

or even make a useful tool out of it..

yet we worship it.. or at least some do...

I have always said when it comes to the bargaining table...

I will take the potatoes and corn and chooks...and the water wells..


you can keep all the gold..
