Gold Holdings Of Eurozone Rise To 10,792 Tonnes – ECB’s “Reserve of Safety” Accumulated
Mark O'Byrne - February 24, 2015

The Euro zone raised its gold holdings by 7.437 tonnes to 10,791.885 tonnes in January, International Monetary Fund data released overnight showed. The rise in gold holdings was small in tonnage terms and in percentage terms – especially when viewed in the light of the recently launched ECB’s EUR 1 trillion QE monetary experiment. Nevertheless, the rise in Euro-area gold holdings shows how the ECB continue to view gold as an important monetary asset. Mario Draghi said of gold in October 2013 that gold is a “reserve of safety” that “gives you a value-protection against fluctuations against the dollar.”

Draghi told an open forum at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government, why central banks want gold and what value it offers. He said that there were “several reasons” to own gold including “risk diversification”. The increase in reserves came at a time, January, of rising gold prices amidst the reemergence of the Greek debt crisis. It may signal that the ECB and Eurozone are set to embark on a gold accumulation programme. More likely, it is simply a way to bolster confidence in the euro due to increasing doubts about the viability of the single currency.

Russia sold a very small amount of gold in January for the first time since March. Russia lowered its reserves to 1,207.7 tons from 1,208.2 tons, ending nine months of consecutive purchases, the IMF data showed. Russia, the world’s fifth-biggest gold holder, had been adding to its holdings for many years in order to bolster the rouble. Before last month, Russia had bought at least 18 tons a month since September and more than tripled its holdings since 2005. Turkey’s gold reserves fell marginally last month along with Mexico and Belarus, the data showed. Kazakhstan increased gold reserves for the 28th straight month, while Ukraine added to holdings for the first time since August, the data showed. Kazakhstan boosted holdings to about 193.5 metric tons from 191.8 tons a month earlier as Ukraine’s rose to 23.9 tons from 23.6 metric tons. Kazakhstan’s hoard rose 33 percent in the past year alone and more than doubled in the past three years.

Ukraine’s assets dropped in November to the lowest level since 2005 as its foreign currency reserves contracted and the hryvnia slumped amid the conflict and collapsing economy. There were also concerns that the newly installed government had acquired the gold and moved it offshore, out of Ukraine. Central banks are some of the largest buyers of gold today – see table above. Central banks have been adding to their gold reserves for the past five years, a reversal from two decades of selling since the late 1980s. They were net buyers in 2014 and are set to be net buyers again 2015. Governments bought 477.2 tons of gold bullion in 2014, the second-biggest increase in 50 years, and purchases will be at least 400 tons this year, the World Gold Council has estimated. The smart money will continue to follow the lead of central banks internationally and gradually accumulate gold and dollar, euro or pound cost averaging into an allocated and segregated physical gold position.

Merci pour la traduction simultanée ;)

Question idiote certainement:
C'est quoi cette deuxième cotation en Euro par once?
Citer:
AM la solution d'aujourd'hui était de USD 1,195.50, 1,057.97 EUR et 774,59 EUR par once.
AM la correction d'hier était de USD 1,193.50, 1,055.17 EUR et 777,12 EUR par once.

Bonjour,
Et voilà comment les fausses informations se propagent dans la blogosphère des goldbugs ! :evil:
La BCE n'a pas acheté un seul gramme d'or.

La BCE n'a en effet rien acheté. L'augmentation vient simplement de la prise en compte du stock de la Lituanie dans le stock global de l'Eurozone.
Il faut dire que l'entrée de la Lituanie s'est faite avec une telle discrétion que personne n'en a entendu parler en Europe alors de l'autre côté de l'Atlantique ils s'en apercevront dans 5 ans.
Par contre le chiffre n'est pas de 7,437 tonnes mais de 5,91 tonnes (voir ici) soit 019 millions d'onces x 31.1035 /1000 000.

Ci-dessous le détail des stocks de l'Eurozone que j'ai réalisé à partir des données du FMI :

Pays Tonnes
Allemagne 3384,2
Autriche 280
Belgique 227,4
Espagne 281,6
Finlande 49,1
France 2435,4
Irlande 6
Italie 2451,8
Luxembourg 2,2
Pays-Bas 612,5
Portugal 382,5
Grèce 112,4
Slovénie 3,2
Chypre 13,9
Malte 0,09
Slovaquie 31,7
Estonie 3,11
Lettonie 6,6
Lituanie 5,91
BCE 503,25

TOTAL (t) 10792,86
