Seit dem Zeitpunkt Bundesbank-repartriation-request (in der Graphik), seitdem sinkt der Goldpreis, irgendwie merkwürdig
denn nun könnte die deutsche Bundesbank das Gold auf dem freien Markt verkaufen
wer das Gold physisch hat der kann es verkaufen.

In 1999 it was Gordon Brown’s extraordinary statement that the UK would hand billions of dollars to the bullion banks by selling 400 tonnes of gold at pre-announced auctions, and in 2013 it was the German Bundesbank’s repatriation request that shook up the markets.

But in fact it gets much worse. This morning, an article appeared on Zerohedge suggesting that, of the 37 tonnes repatriated in 2013, 32 came from Paris — meaning that just 5 TONNES made its way across the Atlantic:

Gold imports into China through Hong Kong went through the roof. Massively inflated exports of gold from the UK to Switzerland (home of the world’s finest smelters) strongly suggested that bullion was being withdrawn from the LBMA warehouses and sent (via Switzerland) to China.

(Peter Boehringer): The public is still waiting for answers to crucial questions like these:
What kind of gold bars were melted? Original material from the 1950s and ’60s?
How can the Bundesbank hint in its press release that some of the old bars already met the LGD specifications when those specifications were not defined and made a standard for central bank bars until 1979?
Why has the Bundesbank not published a bar number list of the old bars? How can there be security concerns about bars that no longer exist?
Why has the Bundesbank not published a bar number list of the newly cast bars?
Who exactly melted the bars? Where exactly was this melting performed? Is there a smelter at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York?
Who witnessed the melting and recasting of the bars?
Are there any reports on this in writing, with a valid signature? By whom?
And especially: Why was it deemed necessary to perform this action in the United States as opposed to Frankfurt or nearby Hanau, where there are some of the best facilities in the world for metal probing, melting, and recasting?
Had these actions been performed in Germany in a fully transparent manner, it would have been so easy for the Bundesbank to dismiss all questions from “paranoid gold conspiracy theorists.”
