China sold $8,000,000,000 in US treasuries in April.
If they wanted to, they could take the proceeds and buy about 6,000,000 ounces of gold or about 180 metric tonnes....with just ONE MONTH of U.S. treasury sales. Chew on that for a while.

Good article

They could, but highly unlikely. With the beginning of a liquidity crisis, the first private bank failure in 20 years, multiple rounds of quantitative easing this year, one bank run, crop losses, African Swine Fever and this years introduction of the Army Worm they need all the cash they can get.

It's very likely they bought that much of Huawei stock last week.
