China's US Treasury holdings have fallen from a peak of $1.32 trillion to roughly $659 billion, an 18-year low. Beijing's central bank has bought gold for 20 straight months, its longest streak in a decade. Goldman Sachs estimates China's real gold buying is 4.8 times the official figure. The European Central Bank confirms gold has overtaken US Treasuries as the world's top reserve asset, at 27% versus 22%.
