Wow -- this could have some serious international banking implications. The CCP and its operative commercial companies are getting increasingly aggressive and desperate.

Those fakes weren't really on the market. At less than half the density of gold copper fakes are so easy to spot that they wouldn't fool anybody.

They way I read the article, the gold was being held as collateral for loans, so the Chinese banks and insurance companies are on the hook for the losses
