Hope CBR does not go later on in few months and buy it , Below 30 Billion USD is good should keep it that way.
Where have their invested these recently encashed money , Does not seem like Gold to that extent , Could have paid the Debts or invested in EU Bonds ?

After all the deals for belt and road, BRICS, SCO and so on are done, China will dump a Trillion or so. The interest rate on the 10 year bond from Amiland will go up to 7 or 8 percent.

Most important part:
...This year, Russia surpassed China to become one of the world’s five leading holders of gold, with reserves topping 1,900 tons....

China gold reserve is far higher than what they official claim to have , Lot of these gold bought via HK is unaccounted for.
I am still baffled as to where CBR invested the 80 billion USD it withdrew from T Bills in past 2-3 months ?
May be they can invest in Russian economy . Give cheap loans to government to fund projects ?

"it will make investors cautious"
What? If the investors are Russian, how would it make them more cautious? The bonds are in Rubles. The people buying them are Russian citizens. So that sounds like nonsense to me for sure. I guess its Reuters, so it has to have some kind of scaremongering bullshit to be added in.

Keiser Report: Ruble crisis 4yrs on (E1257)

"The current gold holdings of 2,000 tons are approaching the Soviet maximum of 2,800 tons ☭ reached in 1941. At the moment, Russia’s gold and foreign currency holdings total $460 billion with the central bank aiming to increase that figure to $500 billion. Over the last decade, the share of gold in reserves has soared tenfold.
The precious metal has historically proved itself as an effective hedge against financial shocks and fiscal meltdowns. According to mining and financial experts, the world could run out of mineable gold in the next two decades. If this happens, the prices for bullion could soar to $3,000 per ounce or higher."

Based on what other countries hold, Russian Gold Reserves should surpass Germany at 4000T , US is at 8000 T , China does not put true figure but unoffical gold reserves is at 4000 T bought via HK etc.
So a good strong reseves at 5000 T is what Russia needs , Russia Mines have gold worth 12,000 T is what last I read from offical Russian ministry figures.

Buying more?
Don't want to get gold fever though... it is better to use money to build infrastructure and increase growth than to just put gold in the bank.
Having more gold is better but if you try to buy a lot at once it pushes up the price...
BTW that video is rather promising...
I saw a terrible article showing the mentality of the people involved in American healthcare... they said that they are not interested in finding cures any more because if you cure the disease you only get paid once and the disease cannot spread. If you treat the symptoms you have a regular income from that patient and all the other people that person infects...
Russia needs to find its own future and direction to take because the west is just wrong.

Germany has 3.300 tons.
Russian gold reserves are larger than Chinas. Officially. But we shouldn´t forget that the numbers from Russia are also only the central bank reserves. There are a lot of state-owned banks with some Gold in the vaults. If Russia keeps buing with this pace it will surpase Germany in 2023 or 2025.

It could be a case of pass the parcel... you don't want to end up with too much US dollars when US dollars become worthless... either through sanctions or financial collapse...

There is significant scope to do this, with estimated gold reserves exceeding 12.9 thousand tonnes (EY, 2015).

Russia’s Gold Profile
According to the Russian Ministry of Natural Resources, the country has the second largest gold reserves in the world at 12,500 tonnes (over 400 million ounces).
Russia has a handful of major gold producing regions in the east; Krasnoyarsk, Irkutsk, Magadan, Amur, and Chelyabinsk. Krasnoyarsk in particular is one of the more prolific gold mining regions in the world. As you can see, many of these areas are remote in the extreme sense of the word.

I hope Russian Central Bank does not sell its its own Gold Resources and additionally it buys what ever gold it can from around.
Gold is a Great Asset and it will get more critical and strategic assest to keep in years ahead
