India goldhttps://in.reuters.com/article/2013/09/17/india-gold-jewellery-idINDEE98G09J20130917?type=economicNews
Is this a bigger story ?
In a hyper inflation scenerio,
the value transfer will go from fiat to gold.
elites, banks, governments own all the fiat right now.
In India a lot of citizens own gold.
they do not want the citizens to take their wealth it would collapse the system.
Japan is the start every country will have to follow there lead or enter a depression.
I have read that the Japanese are buying gold with every paycheck as there currency will continually decline with hyper inflation. the trick is that gold will continually increase.
India is trying to stop its citizens from stealing its wealth from fiat to gold when hyperinflation comes.
