A major gold reset could be closer than people think (Ad) For 50 years, Washington has held 8,133 tonnes of gold on its books at a fraction of today's market price. One executive order could change that — potentially triggering the largest wealth transfer into gold in modern American history. The last time the U.S. faced this combination of inflation, debt, and monetary pressure, gold climbed 2,300% in the 1970s.
