Oddbean new post about login | logout Federal Reserve: End Of QT On The Horizon? What About Gold? As speculation grows around the Fed's expected interest rate cut, possibly by 25 basis points, the financial world is buzzing with anticipation. Meanwhile the Central Bank's balance sheet in the U.S. increased slightly from $7.112 trillion to $7.115 trillion within a week but still remains in the phase of a relatively fast shrinking or 'consolidation'. There's still a lot of appetite for US debt in the world. But there's an elephant in the room that’s often overlooked if it comes to the damage the last year's bond crash has done to central banks' balance sheets that in a lot of cases show negative equity capital: the Fed's gold reserves. What if a significant revaluation of these reserves could wipe out the balance sheet damage of recent years? With the BRICS nations boosting their gold purchases to fortify their future currency system, are we on the cusp of a global gold revaluation? I cannot imagine that after years of manipulation of the gold price, the now controlled rise will happen without a plan by the central bank. #Fed #Gold #BRICS #InterestRates #FinancialMarkets #CentralBank https://nostrcheck.me/media/863f2c555276e9ed738933b0efee6b021042f16e1529dd755704885b87fee183/34a107b789a138ec2227547f7ed4ebe4f80f0df0ebd5ca0a03c226ab768c0723.webp https://nostrcheck.me/media/863f2c555276e9ed738933b0efee6b021042f16e1529dd755704885b87fee183/026bd6c31cb4c07c22952ba22f340e2cc1ad735f7a83726a741957fd4cfc4b24.webp
