The Silver:Gold Ratio, 1687-2011 |
We have something special this week: the open market value of
silver, compared to gold, over a period of over three centuries. The
location is London.
For a long time, silver and gold were, in a sense, two versions of
the same thing, just like one dollar bills and twenty dollar bills
are today. Their ratio of value was not perfectly stable, like the
20:1 ratio of $1 bills and $20 bills, but it was quite stable
between about 16:1 and 15:1. Both silver and gold serFriday, March 27, 2020 |

One Idea to Stop Venezuela's Downward Spiral: Switch to the U.S. Dollar
By Patrick Gillespie

Tuesday, March 13, 2018
Venezuela's currency, the bolivar, lost nearly all its value last year as the country spiraled into an economic crisis. One solution gaining popularity: Get rid of the bolivar and replace it with the U.S. dollar.

Bullion Banks pass the parcel on El Salvador’s gold reserves |
Eighteen months ago I wrote a short synopsis of a gold sales transaction by the central bank of El Salvador wherein it had sold 80% (about 5.5 tonnes) of its official gold reserves. The title of the post was “El Salvador’s gold reserves, the BIS, and the bullion banks“. If you thought, why the focus on the Banco Central de Reserva de El Salvador (BCR), it’s not a major player on the world gold market, you’d be correct, it’s not in its own right that important.

Blame Benjamin Strong |
Here's something I've been meaning to get to for a long time. Let's
look at the description of the supposedly disastrous "inflation" of the
1920s, as described by Murray Rothbard in America's Great Depression
(1962), and see if it makes any sense at all.
https://mises.org/library/americas-great-depression
Rothbard was characteristic of a great number of "classical"-leaning
economists who felt obligated to describe the Great Depression as
basically a monetary event. I don't think it was. ThSunday, January 31, 2016 |

El Salvador sells 80 percent of its gold reserves for U.S. dollars |
El Salvador's central bank sold about 80 percent of its gold reserves last month to diversify risk and take advantage of the metal's appreciation, a central bank official said on Friday.
The country, which has been dollarized since 2001, sold 5.412 tons of gold for $206 million, which will go into the bank's reserve portfolios to protect it against market volatility. ...

Ronan Manly: El Salvador's gold reserves, the BIS, and the bullion banks |
Gold market researcher and GATA consultant Ronan Manly has studied El Salvador's recent liquidation of most of its gold reserves and concludes that it is likely a small example of what the governments of bigger countries are doing surreptitiously in the gold market.
Manly writes: "The case of the El Salvador gold sales demonstrates that central banks can and do use the gold depositing facilities of the Bank for International Settlements and the gold-lending services of London Bullion Market AssoMonday, April 27, 2015 |
