Poland’s central bank holds 672 tonnes of gold, targets 700 tonnes

The disclosure matters less for the tonnage than for the signal: a European central bank publicly framing gold accumulation as a standing objective rather than a one-off purchase. That sits alongside the broader pattern of official-sector buying that has underpinned demand in recent years. The open question is whether the stated target is reached through continued regular purchases or tapered off, since the pace of central-bank buying has been a key swing factor for the market.
