[The Ratio of U.S. Gold Reserves to Federal Debt Has Dropped to a Historic Low of 3%] Odaily Planet Daily News: The Kobeissi Letter posted on the X platform, stating that the ratio of U.S. gold reserves to government debt is at a historic low. Currently, gold reserves account for only 3% of U.S. federal debt, one of the lowest levels on record. Despite the U.S. holding 8,133.5 tons of gold—the largest reserves globally—and gold prices rising to historic highs, this ratio remains low. In comparison, the ratio was approximately 18% in 1980, six times higher than it is now. To reach the reserve level of 1980, gold prices would need to increase by 400%, reaching $26,000 per ounce. In the 1940s, the ratio of gold reserves to federal debt exceeded 50%. To match the ratio of the 1940s, gold prices would need to rise by 1,340%, reaching approximately $75,000 per ounce.
