The Russian Federation continues to increase its gold reserves. In case of a world economic war?

162
Having got rid of significant amounts of US debt securities (in recent months they were sold for the sum of 80 billion dollars), Russia continued to accumulate gold reserves in its vaults. We are talking about the so-called monetary gold, the volume of which in June grew by another 0,8%. In real terms, the increase was about 15,6 tons.

At the beginning of July, as the statistics of the Bank of Russia shows, the volume of gold in reserves of Russia amounted to almost 1944 tons. This suggests that since the beginning of 2018, the Central Bank has purchased more than 105 tons of gold.



The gold reserve of Russia is growing in recent years. So, in 2015, he added more than 17%, in 2016, about 14%, last year - 13,87%. In the current year, it is planned to remain on indicators of at least 10% of the growth of savings in monetary gold.

The Russian Federation continues to increase its gold reserves. In case of a world economic war?


Today, gold at the Central Bank quotes is traded at 2500,18 rubles per gram. After the multidirectional movement of its value, gold in international markets has "increased" by almost 7,6% in a few days.

Experts are guessing what plans of the Russian authorities may be related to the tendency to dump the bulk of American securities (now they are not in Russia for 100 and deprive billions of dollars, but for less than 15 billion) and at the same time increase the gold reserves. One of the versions: a safety cushion in case the commencement of the US “against all” trade war leads to another global economic crisis, as a result of which goods may once again end up at one of the leading places in the economy. Another question: will gold become that commodity? But, ultimately, gold in the medium term will definitely not lose the function of providing money supply for most economies of the world. By the way, the other day the US president announced that he intends to increase the volume of duties on Chinese goods in the amount of up to half a trillion dollars. And this is actually the entire trade turnover between China and the United States.

                  Yeah, but they have no one to fight. Those who could be plucked with impunity were almost gone. It would be more expensive to get involved in a war with Russia or China, so they turned their eyes to Iran, but even then they couldn’t get an easy walk and did not solve the problem with debt and the dollar. In the US, debt is over 20 trillion. In Europe, debt is comparable to American. In total, there are so many global debts that they cannot be repaid by anything at all, and therefore we need a global financial crisis that will lead to the collapse of the entire existing financial system and zero out all debt. It seems that the US itself is more interested in the dollar falling and being replaced by a new payment unit. Trump almost destroys established economic ties with the EU and China, which will almost certainly accelerate the crisis in the global economy. Probably in anticipation of future changes and is buying up despicable metal.

And its cost is not in the tug. but in the green. E-mine, given the inflation of the dollar, it turns out gold is getting cheaper by itself.

          Do not write nonsense. Statistical graphs of gold prices in the direct access. Where do you see the fall of a "fairly long time"?
          And how did you calculate how much Russia has lost? I, on the contrary, see that the main purchases were made on antipikes. Then they added, fell again, etc. Normal dynamics, within the limits of market fluctuations. Oil "trembles", by the way, much more amplitudely.
          Or is it out of habit, just to write? Say also that gold is less valuable than painted paper or smartphones of a well-known company.

          -xranitsya-zolotoj-zapas-rossii / "Who owns and where the gold reserves of Russia are stored"
          From there, "And the Bank of Russia regularly replenishes its gold reserves, mainly physically purchasing ingots from producers within the state"- says Peter Pushkarev, chief analyst at TeleTrade."

          Those. purchases are from domestic producers for rubles, and not for currency. And putting this gold in gold reserves, it actually turns into currency. Those. - this is exactly legal issue of currency by Russia.

          In addition, gold placed in gold reserves gives Russia the right to produce additional issue of rubles in the amount of the exchange value of this gold.

          Those. Gold purchased from its own producer, firstly, supports its own producer, and secondly, the state gets it almost for free, because rubles are paid to the producer and their amount is less than the exchange value of the purchased gold; in the third, the budget is replenished by the amount of tax revenues from producers and the share premium of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation.

          In this scheme, exchange losses from the decline in the value of gold in world markets are not involved in any way. If gold was bought up for foreign currency on the foreign market, then yes, losses would have occurred.

          And all this has nothing to do with sanctions. If sanctions affected, then the gold reserve would decline, but it is growing.

            We need foreign, liquid assets, in an adequate amount .... we do not live in a confined space!

It’s bad that we still don’t have a real alternative in the political space of the country, therefore the changes \ actions on the part of the authorities are absolutely nasty for the simple, working people! And we practically CAN’t influence these processes!

              The state’s gold reserve is, of course, good! But one thing bothers me. If capital (in any form - rubles, gold, bucks ...) lies at home in the mattress - this is a direct loss, like illiquid materials in a factory. Capital must work, spin and make a profit. In the state there are many areas where you need to invest in order to get profit later - this is scientific research, and industrial enterprises, and roads, and much more. Private capital does not like to invest in projects that do not bring quick profits, and such projects are necessary for the state!
              I do not call to immediately spend all reserves on such projects, I understand that the state needs to have a solid stash just in case (and, as you know, there are different cases). But just sitting on a pile of gold, like a mean knight, when there are so many problems in the country, I think is wrong. What part of these reserves should be put into circulation - let experts determine.
              Notice, I propose that reserves not be retired, health care, the army - this is a separate conversation. I suggest investing in those areas that will be profitable, albeit not instantly.

              You see what’s the matter. not the dollar itself will collapse, but the whole US economy is preparing to collapse, and with it the economies of all developed Western countries. This is simply because the US government debt is already more than 100% and it will never be paid. So we are only talking about the duration of this apocalypse. Of course, this will not be good for all other countries (especially China), but Russia is still more likely to survive this misfortune than other countries. No, don’t think that these countries will die at all - but the United States and other countries of the golden billion will be very impoverished.

          President Ronald Reagan came in 1981, conservative friends convinced him to study the feasibility study on returning the gold standard as the only way to curb government spending. Since it sounded quite sensible, President Reagan appointed a group called the Gold Commission to study the issue and draw conclusions for Congress. The Gold Commission in its report to Congress in 1982 made the following shocking discovery - the Treasury has no gold! No, not at all!

            But here recently Turkey returned 200 tons of gold from America from America - how can we understand if there is supposedly no gold in the USA?

          In general, Israel has about 100 billion dollars of reserves. Why do not you invest in infrastructure? After all, Apple is only in the fourth quarter of 2017 .... Well, continue on your own. Why do you need reserves?

          We do not have these reserves in gold, CEP. And we are well invested in infrastructure. New roads, railway, ports and airports.

          Just gold will be that resource, thanks to which countries can at least somehow trade. I'm not saying that tomorrow the dollar will collapse. It may never crash, but living in the state only today and not thinking through the risks is wrong. That is why all developed countries have reserves. How are you, how are we. Just gold is a more reliable thing.

          Our reserves are not in gold. The dollar will collapse, we will trade in bitcoins. Nobody will pay with gold bars.

          President Ronald Reagan came in 1981, conservative friends convinced him to study the feasibility study on returning the gold standard as the only way to curb government spending. Since it sounded quite sensible, President Reagan appointed a group called the Gold Commission to study the issue and draw conclusions for Congress. The Gold Commission in its report to Congress in 1982 made the following shocking discovery - the Treasury has no gold! No, not at all!
          As it turned out, all that was left at Fort Knox did not belong to the Federal Reserve, but was kept by a group of private bankers as security for the national debt.

      It turns out $ 40 per gram or $ 77.7 billion for all the gold in almost 1944 tons. Only $ 77.7 billion. For comparison, Apple’s profit in the fourth quarter of 2017 amounted to $ 52.6 billion. This is despite the fact that when they start throwing a coin on the market, its price will drop by an order of magnitude.

      It would be better if they invested in infrastructure.


      All Western profits are overblown electronic money and nothing more. If the truth happened, especially a protracted war, then the Yankees with the Anglo-Saxons were immediately blown away with their futures, options, stocks. Whoever has more military factories would have won the war. If it does not give an instant blow, then the war of resources begins automatically and the West loses it as usual.

        Or today, a rich Jew with futures for wheat and oil with the onset of war will not immediately become a pauper? After all, wheat and oil are only on paper, in real life it is a few shekels in cash and on a card, again electronic money ...

          And America cannot start a war because of its debt, although it would like, BUT, if the war were to lose, what would happen to their exchanges, stock market and economy? What is the use of empty one by one arrays of bits - zeros and ones? Will they feed the country? They are panicky afraid of losing the war or drawing it in a draw - after all, no one will pay the price of gold, lose their sovereignty, surrender their brains and resources to them, bend under them. Everything will have to be built by ourselves, but there is no money. They will fall into the conditions of the 1920s in Russia and 1920-1930s in Germany. Their whole parasitic economy that strangles the world is bits. After the war, real money and resources are needed, not an electronic myth. So the states are furious - they cannot start a war, they are losing their syrup and influence, China is pushing, in short, the time has come for reckoning, it will last several decades. And Russia’s mother’s gold, grain fields, oil, gas, fish, timber, steel, uranium, water, in short, resources, help!

    Capitalism in Russia forces the state to buy its own gold for the money of the people in order to save the good of the capitalists in the event of war. Got it, damn it! belay

    Russia buys gold because it’s easier for them to pay and circumvent sanctions (the sale of T-bills of FRS is also connected with this)
    From an economic point of view, the purchase of gold by Russia is one complete loss, since the price of gold has been falling for quite some time.
    And on this Russia has already lost in money terms more than 10 lard greens
