The Shanghai Gold Exchange delivered 49.954 tonnes of gold during the third week of April.
Total gold withdrawals on the Shanghai Gold Exchange year to date are about 731 tonnes.
The volume of gold delivered on the Shanghai Gold Exchange through the third week of April 2015 is greater than the tonnage of the entire American Gold Eagle mintage from 1986-2014.
The Shanghai Gold Exchange has delivered a greater volume of gold during the first four months of 2015 than the entire mintage of one ounce Amerian Gold Eagles from 1986-2014.
A burgeoning domestic physical gold market is one of the cornerstones of China’s de-dollarization/Yuan strengthening initiatives that also includes selling U.S. Treasuries and the creation of the Asian Infrastrucure Investment Bank.
China is widely believed to be making a play for inclusion in the International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) Special Drawing Rights (SDRs) Program later this year. If China fails to gain inclusion in the SDR, its recent initiatives to strengthen its currency and gain greater acceptance of the Yuan may provide a strong alternative to the IMF regime.
