Hello Ron, You said >>>When there is a high demand for cash from the economy, CBs release reserves into the system to prevent excessive interest rates from manifesting themselves because of a shortage of cash and more competition for that cash.

Why not gold? <<<
IMO. if their currency and economy is faltering and they get rid of their gold what do they have left of value.
As Duisenberg said >>> European Central Bank president Wim Duisenberg said that
gold's role in the central bank reserves is to defend local
currencies, not capital appreciation.<<<
Gold is a defence.
