Gold Repatriation & Central Bank Buying Are No Coincidence

Throughout 2022 there's been a theme of protecting assets against geopolitical risk.

Central banks have been buying gold at a record pace, while others have been repatriating their gold holdings to keep them safe from jurisdictional risk. A risk that took on new significance this year after seeing Russia get kicked out of the SWIFT system, while many of their assets were frozen.

It's almost as if the fears many gold and silver investors have had for years about a move away from the dollar and into hard assets have finally manifested. And that it's no longer a matter of what 'could' happen 'one day,' but rather what continues to occur before our eyes on an almost day to day basis.

So in today's show, I talk with Jay Martin, host of the Vancouver Resource Investment Conference, about his thoughts on what we witnessed in 2022 in the gold and silver markets, and some of the trends he expects in 2023 and the years going forward.

He talks about the reasons why central banks are taking active steps to increase and secure their gold holdings, the current environment for the mining sector, the concerns in the energy market, and how the investors and fund managers he speaks with on a daily basis are responding to the current conditions.
