Central banks bought 289 tonnes of gold last quarter, the most ever recorded in a single quarter. Kazakhstan added 15 tonnes, Uzbekistan 16, and China 33, all with no press conference.
These buyers have access to some of the best economic information on earth, and they are moving in unison. Dylan Jovine of Behind the Markets thinks he knows what they are preparing for, with a key date circled on the calendar: September 30th.  |
