FOX Business, Bloomberg & CNBC haven't mentioned a huge change in the accounting of gold for banks by the end of this month but it's a very big deal! Gold will become a Tier 1 asset valued at 100% for banks. That means that gold will be counted as a much more valuable asset held by banks against which they can make more loans. Finally, there may be a reason for banks to desire higher rather than lower gold prices. Might Basel III along with endless QE start the next gold price explosion? That and other market dynamics underlying gold's next major bull market are explored with Andrew.
