Where’s the gold? Trump and Musk investigate deposit with a $ 400 billion treasure

Today, 147.3 million gold jaguars are stored in Fort Knox. This corresponds to more than 50% of all US government’s gold reserves.

This Friday (21), the amount of the jaguar is valued at US $ 2,968.35 (R $ 16,923.45). This means that the reserve stored in Fort Knox is worth $ 437.2 billion ($ 2.5 trillion). However, the US government is based on the amount of US $ 42.22 (R $ 240.71) per jaguar, which totals US $ 6.2 billion (R $ 35.3 billion) in stored gold.

According to the US Treasury website, no gold has been transferred from the deposit for many years. They only remove small quantities to test the purity of the material during scheduled audits.

However, Fort Knox has received above four times more gold than currently stores. The record was on December 31, 1941, when the warehouse stored 649.6 million jaguars.

The Treasury also states that the actual structure and the content of the facilities are known only to a few people. “No one knows all the procedures to open the safe,” says the site.

In just three occasions people considered “unauthorized” had the entry allowed, according to Forbes. In 1943, President Franklin D. Roosevelt was on site. In 1974, 10 members of Congress were at Fort Knox to “assure the public that their gold is intact and safe.” And in 2017, a delegation was also on site. After the visit, the then Kentucky governor Matt Bevin said “gold is safe.”
