China's gold reserves are valued at approximately $320 billion. In the context of the global economy, this number is not particularly large.

If this trend continues, it won't be long before China ranks second in the world.

Recently, there has been a rumor online that the US sold gold reserves to pay off debt. But what is the actual situation? The US's gold policy has always been stable, with no major moves.

The logic behind this is worth pondering. Countries are rethinking the role of gold in asset allocation. In an increasingly uncertain world, the appeal of physical assets is indeed rising.

Regarding gold reserves, it mainly depends on each country's strategic layout. Under dollar hegemony, who dares to take real action. 3.2 trillion sounds like a lot, but in the scale of the economy, it's really just a drop in the bucket. We still have plenty of room. I think the recent surge in physical assets is promising. With so much uncertainty, who still trusts paper currency? The US narrative changes every time, but the gold vault doors are tightly locked. That's the real truth. The second position is secure; now it's just a matter of how the subsequent asset allocation game will play out.

Listen, I've had my eye on gold for a long time, just worried that we haven't bought enough yet. To be honest, we've seen through that American trick a long time ago; it's very stable but just hiding it. Physical assets are the real hard currency. After this round of market, everyone will need to reallocate. If the US really wanted to withdraw gold, they would have already messed up the show. What we want is this slow and steady accumulation rhythm. For now, there is still a chance. Don't miss out.

Gold really is becoming more and more attractive... but $320 billion is still too small to make a big impact on the global economy. Forget it, everyone has seen through the US tricks; physical assets are the real king. So, are we about to start a new round of gold hoarding? With such high uncertainty, who wouldn't want to hold some real gold and silver? The second place will eventually be ours; it all depends on how we play it.

Gold reserves are essentially a contest against dollar hegemony; everyone is quietly stockpiling gold. It's hard to believe the US rhetoric when the regulatory mechanisms are virtually nonexistent. With such high uncertainty, who still only deals in paper currency? Physical assets are the real king. Surpassing the US within a few years? That’s a bit optimistic, but the trend is indeed there. Countries are copying each other by accumulating gold—what does that indicate? The reserve gold market is very complex; the statistical data itself is unreliable.
