🚨 SHOCKING: Putin’s Gold Sell-Off — Russia Loses 3/4 of Its National Wealth Fund Reserves! 🇷🇺💰
Russian media is finally revealing harsh truths: Over the past three years, Putin has liquidated nearly 71% of Russia’s gold held in the National Wealth Fund.
May 2022: Fund held 554.9 tons of gold
Jan 1, 2026: Down to 160.2 tons, now kept in anonymous Central Bank accounts 😳
🔹 Current State of the National Wealth Fund
Total liquid assets (including yuan & gold) 4.1 trillion rubles
Analysts warn: if oil prices and the ruble hold steady, another 60% of remaining reserves could be withdrawn this year (~2.5 trillion rubles)
⚡ Why This Matters
This isn’t just numbers—this is Russia’s financial safety net shrinking fast:
Limits ability to fund infrastructure projects
Weakens social programs
Potentially hampers military operations
The critical question: How long can Moscow sustain spending before the cash runs out?
💥 Market Implications:
Possible pressure on the ruble and Russian assets
Could impact global commodity flows, especially gold and energy markets
Traders and investors should watch for ripple effects in precious metals and emerging markets
This is a rare insight into geopolitical and macro-financial risk—a must-watch story for anyone following gold, energy, and Russia-linked assets.
