Central Banks' Unprecedented Action in March 2023 🏦

About this video

March 2023: Federal Reserve, European Central Bank, Bank of England, Bank of Japan, Swiss National Bank, Bank of Canada issued coordinated statement. Almost no media coverage.
They announced: Standing swap line arrangements. Permanent channels to exchange currencies with each other. No limits. Any time. At a moment's notice.
They called it "precautionary."
When have central banks ever called something precautionary, then never used it? NEVER.
They're preparing for something. Something big enough that they needed every major central bank coordinated and ready. Something they clearly see coming but won't publicly acknowledge.
THE EVIDENCE (What They're Doing When Nobody's Watching):
1. RECORD GOLD BUYING:
2022-2023: Central banks purchased 2,262 tons of gold. Highest level in 55 years.

China: +225 tons
Poland: +130 tons
Singapore, India, Turkey: Loading up at record pace

But here's the strange part: They bought this gold while simultaneously claiming inflation was "transitory" and their currencies were "stable."
Why buy gold if your currency is fine?
2. BUILDING BACKUP FINANCIAL SYSTEM:
July 2023: Bank for International Settlements (BIS = central bank of central banks) launched "Finternet." Their description: "A vision for the future financial system."
Buried in technical documents: "Capable of operating during periods of financial instability or infrastructure disruption."
Translation: They're building a backup system.
Why would you need backup unless you expect current system to FAIL?
3. REHEARSING BANK FAILURES:
Every year since 2020: Federal Reserve + Treasury + FDIC conducting "resolution planning exercises." Detailed simulations of major bank failures. Not just one or two banks—practicing coordinated responses to SIMULTANEOUS failures across entire banking system.
2023 exercise scenario: "Multiple systemically important institutions experience severe stress following sudden loss of market confidence."
They're not planning for crisis. They're REHEARSING for one.

THIS HAS HAPPENED BEFORE (Exact Same Pattern):
1927: Central banks (America, Britain, France, Germany) held secret meeting at Federal Reserve Bank of New York. No minutes published. No press allowed.
What they did: Coordinated policy to lower interest rates simultaneously despite growing credit bubbles.
Why? Support British pound struggling after return to gold standard.
Result: Supercharged credit boom leading directly to 1929 crash and Great Depression.
1968: Central banks meeting secretly in Basel, Switzerland (home of BIS) for months. Topic: Defending gold standard as dollars flooded Europe.
Created "Gold Pool"—coordinated intervention selling gold together to suppress price and maintain fiction that $35 could still buy ounce of gold.
Told public system was stable. Meanwhile: Hemorrhaging gold reserves trying to hold it together.
Result: August 1971, Nixon closed gold window anyway. System they spent years secretly defending collapsed in a weekend. Everyone who trusted central bank narrative lost purchasing power overnight.
2007: August, central banks introduced "temporary" swap lines (same mechanism they just made PERMANENT 2023).
Fed transcripts (released years later) show: In private meetings, officials discussing severe banking stress, liquidity concerns, potential contagion.
What they told public? June 20, 2007, Bernanke testified to Congress: "We do not expect significant spillovers from subprime market to rest of economy."
4 months later: Creating emergency lending facilities.
14 months later: Lehman Brothers collapsed. Financial system nearly ended.
PATTERN ALWAYS SAME: Coordinate in secret → Build emergency infrastructure → Tell public everything fine → Act shocked when crisis hits.

WHAT ARE THEY PREPARING FOR THIS TIME?
Evidence points to 5 specific scenarios (preparing for ALL simultaneously):
SCENARIO 1 - TREASURY MARKET BREAKDOWN:
US Treasury market = $26T. Supposed to be most liquid, stable market in world.
March 2020: It broke. For 3 days, Treasury prices went haywire. Normally safest asset became untradeable. Fed stepped in with $1T in purchases to restore function.
October 2023: Happened again. Liquidity evaporated during routine auction. Fed quietly intervened again.
