How Much of 1,740 Tons of London ‘Good Delivery’ Gold Monetized and Sent to China Central Bank
jessescrossroadscafe.blogspot.com / 25 SEPTEMBER 2015
Koos Jansen has an interesting piece out this morning, that asks some very insightful questions in the ongoing attempt to connect the dots between the shocking decline in the ‘float’ of unencumbered gold out of the London Vaults with the tremendous, and not always fully visible, flows of gold into strong hands and Asian Vaults.
As you may recall it was Koos’ groundbreaking work in analyzing the Shanghai Gold Exchange that blew the lid off the enormous flows of physical gold into China, despite the stubborn opposition of some well paid establishment analysts.
And all of this is relevant to what some have called ‘the currency war,’ which is the attempt to forge a new international monetary regime out of the ruins of the Bretton Woods Agreement and the fiat petrodollar.
This analysis ties together with a number of highly significant events, including the backwardation of gold price, the flight of gold from the registered category at Comex, and the tightness of physical supply in London as shown by lease rates and informed observations, despite the usual scoffing from apologists.
I have seen various estimates that the London float is now adequate for about 4 to 12 months at most, given this draining of supply, before the market gets into serious trouble. That is unless a central bank or gold pool friendly semi-official fund undertakes to divest itself of more their nation’s gold, as England apparently did by selling their sovereign gold wealth on the cheap near the turn of the century to bail out their banking chums, in the odd case of Brown’s Bottom.
The gold in this current instance seems more likely to have been taken out as leases and sales from custodial gold holdings at the Bank of England, and the stores of gold that is backing ETFs and Funds in private vaults, having been disgorged by the actions of their participants and custodians, often the self-dealing bullion banks.
