I don't doubt that the Chinese have gold fever.

But one has to ask WHY the Chinese government is promoting its purchase. That would seem to send a signal not to trust their currency.

And how much of the recent gold movements in recent months are due to Chinese buying, rather than fear of inflation in the US?

I could see a boom for gold based upon Chinese fears of internal instability and uncertainty over where to find a storehouse of value given the restrictions on capital outflows from China.
