China just bought another 25 tonnes of gold in August through London's OTC market—that's 25% more than what they officially reported.
Look at the pattern: May through August, they're consistently buying way more gold than they're telling us. The gap? 83 tonnes over 4 months. That's 128% more than official numbers.
Meanwhile, global central banks bought 79 tonnes in August alone. Compare that to the pre-2022 average of 17 tonnes per month. We're talking 365% above normal.
When central banks quietly accumulate this much gold, they're making a statement about the dollar, about reserves, about what they think is coming. China's not just buying gold—they're building a fortress of it.
This isn't random. This is strategic positioning.
