France has transferred all of its gold out of the United States, and the French central bank has withdrawn all of its gold reserves from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Between July 2025 and January 2026, 129 tons of French gold stored in New York were sold and replaced with equivalent gold bars purchased in Europe. All 2437 tons of gold reserves in France are now stored in Paris. Every gold bar is in place. The timing cannot be ignored. Trump tore up post-war rules, transatlantic trust fell to a historic low, and France quietly ensured that its financial cornerstone was no longer stored in the United States. Thanks to the record high gold price, this operation brought an unexpected windfall of 13 billion euros, transforming the loss of 7.7 billion euros in 2024 into a profit of 8.1 billion euros in 2025. Macron actually withdrew after receiving a sum of money. France is not an isolated case. Germany currently holds 1236 tons of gold, accounting for approximately 37% of its total reserves. The pressure on Germany to transport these gold back home is rapidly increasing. Michael Yeager, President of the German Taxpayers Association, bluntly stated that Trump's actions are unpredictable and he will do anything to increase fiscal revenue. Germany's gold is no longer safe in the Federal Reserve's treasury. This is the mainstream topic of discussion in Berlin. France has taken action. Germany is observing and calculating. The era of entrusting Europe's gold to Washington may be quietly coming to an end. Just like everything else.
