China wants to steal gold-market ‘reins’ from New York, London - MarketWatch: "China has been making it very clear that it wants more control over the global gold market, but it’ll have to go through New York and London first.
“Given that China is the epicenter of the physical gold market, it does make sense that the Chinese government would want its physical Shanghai gold market to supplant the Comex derivative market (and others) as the primary global price-setting mechanism,” said Anthem Blanchard, chief executive officer of online precious-metal retailer Anthem Vault.
China is, after all, the world’s largest producer and one of the biggest buyers of the metal, often running neck and neck with India as the globe’s top consumer."
