๐จ๐ฉ๐ช GERMANY DEMANDS 1236 TONS OF GOLD BACK FROM THE U.S. ๐บ๐ธ๐ฅ
At Davos 2026, Germany just fired the first real shot in the trust war against the U.S. dollarโฆ by demanding 1236 tons of its gold held at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York return home! ๐ช๐
Thatโs ~โฌ113 BILLION of gold โ and a massive challenge to dollar dominance. ๐ฃ
Why now? ๐ค
๐ฉ๐ช Germany holds 3,700+ tons of gold โ one-third in the U.S. since Cold War trust deals.
But recent U.S. policy uncertainty + lack of transparency has sparked public AND political pressure in Germany to bring the gold home. ๐ฆ
This isnโt new โ the Gold Repatriation Plan started in 2013 โ but progress was slow, with only ~300 tons returned by 2020 due to delays and questions around audits. ๐ต๏ธโโ๏ธ
Now with gold prices historically high ๐ and faith in sovereign currencies shaky, Berlin says physical gold = real financial ballast. ๐ช๐บ๐ถ
And Germany isnโt alone โ India ๐ฎ๐ณ and Turkey ๐น๐ท are eyeing similar moves. Could a global gold repatriation wave be forming? ๐๐ช
Gold may no longer back the dollar like Bretton Woods once did โ but it still backs confidence. The big question now:
๐ Will the U.S. allow these repatriations smoothly?
๐ Could this spark a crisis in dollar trust? ๐ฅ๐ก
