## Prediction

Over the next 30 days, continued or anticipated PBOC gold purchases will help establish a higher structural floor under global bullion prices, even as short-term risk sentiment fluctuates. Other central banks and institutional investors will interpret China’s behavior as validation of gold as a strategic hedge against sanctions and dollar volatility. This will channel additional reserve and portfolio flows into bullion at the expense of some long-duration sovereign debt, subtly raising global risk-free benchmarks. Confirmation would be subsequent months of positive PBOC gold flows and net global central bank buying; denial would be a sharp reversal by China or major sales by other central banks.

## Drivers

- PBOC adding nearly 20 tonnes of gold in July
- China’s UST holdings falling to lowest since 2008
- Ongoing geopolitical risk and sanctions-driven fragmentation
