The financial crunch has been averted. by Peace_man2007-08-13 14:25:37
  the US federal reserve by jaqie 2007-08-13 16:46:19
is just that, a huge reserve, literally tons (hundreds or thousands, I suspect) of gold sitting in places like fort knox and the NY US federal reserve building. I don't know about other places, but that's where the US stores it's "emergency money" for times like this, and that's just the stuff that they let us know about. I strongly suspect other countries have something similar, and even some banks.
