25 sats \ 5 replies \ @Satosora 10 Oct \ on: Can the Federal Reserve Buy Gold? Should It? econ
"Today, many central banks, including the European Central Bank, the Swiss National Bank, the German Bundesbank, the Bank of France, the Bank of Italy, the Dutch National Bank, the Bank of Japan, the Reserve Bank of India, the People’s Bank of China, and the Monetary Authority of Singapore among others, hold gold as an investment and reserve against their monetary liabilities.

Yes, but will they have enough power to do anything about it? If their money inflates, it wont be worth having.
