Is
the US Fed keeping double bookkeeper
entries - adding Germany's
plus other governments'
gold included in the US claimed
reserves of 8,100+ tons? Show me they aren't.
STERN REMINDER: It's not ownership
that counts - - it's always who
has CONTROL! Be reminded of this
truism when it comes to your
own personal bank deposits and "safe" deposit boxes.

"I did not forget
about the debt, I just forget to give them." Yanina Ipohorskaya
When finances sing
romances begin overtures.
The Germans and the Swiss
believed their gold.
German paper "Bild» (bild.de) March 6, published
an article by Ralph Schuler "3401
tons of gold" . Yes, even
with a photograph: "Snapshot near the gold reserves of the German people
in New York."
The author reports from
New York that "the most
precious treasure", which is owned
by the Germans, it is 3401 tons of pure gold, equivalent
to "about 1800 euros for each." R.
Schuler exclaims: "This is
a completely crisis-free,
distributed by safes high
reliability in Frankfurt, Paris, London and New
York! And the Bundesbank does not care about that! "
"Incredible gold scandal"
- again exclaims
correspondent. He notices that «Bundesbank recently in 2007 took one look at our gold reserves in New York
City and along with it even bothered
Federal Court of Audit (check time)."
According to Professor
Jörg Betge, whose words are quoted by R. Schuler,
is a clear violation of
the "test counts bars should
be inspected at least once every 3 years." But that the
Bundesbank did.
Further, the article states that
the annual balance sheet
of the Bundesbank's gold reserves
(current the cost - about
147 billion) represent a very
large proportion - over 17%. R. Schuler asks whether the error in the
Bundesbank balance sheets in recent
years?
Ralph Schuler writes: "Alarmed
message« Bild », member
of the Bundestag and the CDU foreign policy expert Philip Missfelder
wished precisely to learn it." Referring to the article "Bild",
an MP asked the Bundesbank President
Jens Weidmann "list
of the gold bars.
Missfelder said "Bild": "I was shocked. First they said that there
is no list. Then there were
the secret lists. Then they told me that my questions threaten the trust between the
Bundesbank and the Federal Reserve. " (By the way, Mr. Weidmann, it seems, did
not worry about the German
gold. His words led the American newspaper
"New York Times" on March 13: "The German
economy is in surprisingly good shape." Author - Jack Ewing).
When the Bundesbank learned
about the search for "Bild"
German gold, "Head of Public Relations Michael
Best even tried to prevent the visiting deputy and a report in the" Bild
"..."
"As the Bundesbank wants to hide?" - Asks himself R. Schuler.
However, the "Bild"
in the face of Ralph Schuler (the company he was Missfelder)
but managed to visit in
Manhattan - at the Federal
Reserve Bank of the United States. Schuler down deep,
down to the fifth floor,
the level of "E". "Clean floors, buzzing ventilation, huge steel doors.
I - 7000 tons of gold! "
Stubborn German reporter asks, "But where German gold?"
And Jack Gatt, a representative of the Vice-President of the Federal
Reserve, said that the German gold "in some of these 122 steel barred offices. More I can not say. "
R. Schuler notes that seen
after the German bars in
"Bild" has no chance.
Jack Gatt, however, says
the correspondent, "There are lists of all the
bars. Each ingot has a number stamped to the purity of gold and printing. "
But the journalist knows that the German gold reserve should be calculated according to the law. And he echoed Bundestag Philip Missfelder, I suspect that in
the balance of the Bundesbank something fishy, "This is a
case to Parliament." Missfelder
requires a precise inventory of gold reserves of
Germany.
The article ends on this, but the thing with gold reserves of Germany went on.
The site goldcore.com the next day,
March 7, contained an article "Germany:
a review of the gold reserves of the Bundesbank, Frankfurt, Paris, London and
the Federal Reserve Bank of New York" .
Among other things, the article is the fact that German
legislators should consider the "control gold reserves
of Germany. The Parliamentary Committee
on the budget estimate, as the central bank manages its inventory of gold bullion
Germany, which is believed to be stored in Frankfurt, Paris, London and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, according
to the materials of the German
newspaper «Bild».
Here is a photograph of the "Bild":
Schuler and Missfelder front of Manhattan.
It is further stated: "The German Audit
Office criticized the Bundesbank weak audit and control over the relatively
large gold reserves of Germany - 3,396.3 tons of
gold, or about 73.7% of national foreign exchange reserves of Germany."
The following paragraph:
"This caused nervousness
among the German public, German politicians and in the
Bundesbank - about the huge risks
in the balance sheet of the central bank of Germany, which led some people in Germany to speak about the problems of the
location and the exact number of German gold reserves."
Questions of the public due to the fact, the
article notes that the system of the Central Bank Eurozone disbalansirovalas as a
result of the volume of assets
on the balance of the ECB last week reached 3.02 trillion. euros (3.96 trillion. dollars),
"at 31% of GDP in Germany ..."
"Record" is associated
with the issuance of the
second part of a three-year loans
to banks in Europe.
This is why in Europe and
worried: has been suggested
on the decay of the Eurozone.
The "loss of the Bundesbank could reach half
a trillion euros - more than half
the size of the annual budget of Germany."
In such a grim scenario -
the collapse of the European Union - "gold reserves would be needed to maintain the currency of
Germany - whether it be the new euro, or it will return to doychmarke."
"German lawmakers - said in the article - following
in the footsteps of the candidate in American presidential Ron Paul, who has
long called for the audit U.S. gold reserves.
It is believed that about 60% of the German
gold stored outside of
Germany, and the best part - the Federal Reserve
Bank of New York. "
The paper proposes a scenario for the Germans: "Germany and other
central banks may follow Hugo Chavez and repatriate
their gold to Germany to directly
own it and to own gold reserves to better preparedness system or
cash crisis."
Other central banks, you say?
As noted by resource
zerohedge.com, «Germany is not alone." In the article "Switzerland
wants to get their gold back from the Fed," it
is reported that recently, four members of the Swiss Parliament have put forward the
so-called "Golden initiative." Originator of the "Initiative" in English,
French and Italian can be found at
http://www.goldinitiative.ch/
(in the upper right corner, under
reference: FR, IT, EN; format. pdf).
In the original language, ie
German, - here: http://www.goldinitiative.ch/initia
tive / wortlaut-der-Initiative / index.html .
"Golden Initiative" is simple. It has only three items:
1) gold reserves Swiss
National Bank are not sold;
2) The gold reserves of Swiss
National Bank should be kept in Switzerland;
3) Swiss National Bank should
keep their assets in much of the gold. The
proportion of gold should be
over 20%.
And here are some quotes from the other pages of a href = " http://www.goldinitiative.ch/init
iative / index.html ">" Golden
Initiative »: </ a>
"Do you know that
the national bank for 5 years
selling daily average of 1 ton of gold? The fact
that more than half of the national heritage
of the gold, and it is
1550 tons, was sold at the lowest prices? The fact that the person in charge of
the Federal Council on the issue, which houses the national gold,
said in Parliament:
"Where are the gold bars are now, I am sorry,
just can not tell you, because I do not know, should know and I do not want
to know that. "
"Up until the nineties,
there was nothing in the world more secure
than the Swiss National
Bank. Under domestic and especially
foreign pressure (from
the U.S.), the National Bank has announced most of its reserves
"excessive" - and
sold from 2001 to 2006.
by negligible price 1300
tons. Later - another 250
tons to buy foreign currency. This quickly sold gold would now equivalent to the sum of about 75 billion francs. "
Further notes that the Swiss National Bank there are only 1040 tonnes. Swiss fear that this
and the rest is not lost, however, and put forward the "Golden initiative."
"Gold stocks belong to the people" - say the authors.
************************************
Thus, there is an emerging European initiative for the return of gold reserves in their historic homeland. Called
"Gold Rush" is not only
the fact that central banks may take
wrong decisions, to receive a fair public criticism, but also to those (in the case of the German
gold) that it can not find - neither the Bundesbank nor the
U.S. Federal Reserve.
