CHAPTER II: SETTING THE STAGE FOR A U.S. GOLD REVALUATION
(Full macro insight)
Sanctions on Russia’s assets and efforts to suppress the value of its gold reserves were a key financial strategy in 2022. However, the current economic landscape has shifted. Remarkably, neither the U.S. nor major financial institutions have intervened to curb gold’s recent surge, via derivatives, futures contracts, or ETFs. Gold's price is being left to rally unchecked, and this hands-off approach isn’t accidental. More on that in a bit.
The real issue now is the U.S. debt, deficit, and ballooning Treasuries.
In parallel, the world’s largest gold reserve—8,134 tons—is held by the United States. Yet, unlike most countries, the U.S. government does not mark its gold reserves to market value. Amazingly, it still records gold at its 1973 BOOK VALUE OF $42.22 PER ONCE, a figure that has remained unchanged for over half a century.
Revaluing the U.S. gold reserve at today’s (or tomorrow’s) market price would "CREATE" a major asset, ADDING NEARLY $1 TRILLION IN TANGIBLE VALUE to the U.S. Treasury’s balance sheet. To put this into perspective, the total reported Treasury assets in 2024 stood at $5.7 trillion. By strengthening the government’s financial position, this revaluation could reduce the debt-to-GDP ratio, lower borrowing costs, and push Treasury yields downward. At the stroke of a pen, the revaluation of gold would represent one of the most significant financial shifts in modern U.S. history, reinforcing the Treasury’s asset base without adding a single dollar of debt.
Given the above, THE CURRENT SURGE IN GOLD PRICE IS CONVENIENTLY SETTING THE STAGE FOR THE NEW LEVEL AT WHICH THE REPRICING WILL TAKE PLACE.
The U.S. is the world's largest gold holder. The U.S. has a playbook, and the U.S. is in control!
