That may be, but by ENTIRELY selling all precious metals reserves, isn't that inherently less diversification? Having paper contracts that are liquid is one thing, but having some physical metals in reserves would be good too in my opinion. 

The fact that I, a 27 year old Canadian, own more physical gold than my countries reserves... that's pretty sad. 

I guess to play devil's advocate we have more natural gold deposits than many other countries, but still.

Most of those deposits are foreign owned
