Mentioned buying halted in May after several months of accumulation.Reports afterwards advised the PBOC had grown price sensitive.in February the PBOC bought 390,000 ozs in March, 160,000 in April, 60,000 A couple of points: Purchasing blended over $2000I'm not exactly sure I will rely on that the PBOC isn't really acquiring.
