    Not really a big deal. On a fraction of the holdings were moved. USA is still the safest and most profitable place to store money 🤑

      They just shipped literal tons of highly valuable weight out of the US and across the Atlantic Ocean because they don’t trust the US having that much of their gold anymore.

      Loosen the red hat a bit. It’s restricting your blood flow.

        Literally a fraction of the gold was moved out. Sure it was a ton but they have a lot more here still! Right?

          I guess 41% of Dutch gold stored in the US is technically a fraction

          No one in this comment thread read the article and each side arguing with incorrect points is pretty comical.

            I’ve read the news in Dutch papers, referencing the Dutch Central Bank directly.
            Having skimmed through the AP article, it doesn’t really seem to provide any real additional information.

        What’s the expectation? The money is still flowing into the USA. Like it or not, the rich all over the world invest their money here at least for now

          The US will go belly up sooner rather than later.
