According to FXStreet, #gold has outperformed most major asset classes over the last 20 years. As the World Gold Council notes, "Historically, gold has generated long-term positive returns in both good and bad economic times." Taking a longer view, the returns on the yellow metal have been similar to equities, and gold has outperformed bonds since 1971. On average, the price of gold has increased by nearly 8 percent annually since '71 when Nixon severed the dollar's last tie to gold. The price of gold was up about 13 percent in 2023 and was among the best-performing assets. Gold outperformed emerging market #stocks, U.S. bonds, the U.S. dollar, global treasuries, and commodities in general. The only asset classes that performed better than gold were U.S. stocks and developed-market foreign stocks. (fxstreet.com).

Precious metals remain a solid buy for investors While gold trades near a one-month high, the main action was silver, reaching an 11-year closing high last week, and platinum, which has broken higher after a year of sideways action. Both are supported by surging industrial metals, not least copper, which has been squeezed higher after hedge funds and physical traders got caught holding short positions in the COMEX futures market. “The combination of sticky inflation, note the so-called super core metric remains stuck near 5 per cent while the 6-month annualized core CPI is at 4 per cent, and economic data softness will likely continue to support precious metals demand,” Ole Hansen, Head of Commodities Strategy, Saxo Bank, said in the report.

"Ever wondered why gold prices rise? 🌟 Gold has long been regarded as a safe-haven asset, sought after during times of economic uncertainty or geopolitical tension. Recent fluctuations in global markets, coupled with inflation concerns, have fueled a surge in gold prices. As investors flock to the stability of gold, its value continues to climb. But what about its effects on the stock market? 📈 Historically, there's an inverse relationship between gold and stocks. When gold prices rise, stocks may experience a dip as investors shift their focus to this precious metal. Conversely, during periods of economic stability and bullish stock markets, gold prices may stagnate or decline. How do you plan to navigate these glittering opportunities? Will you diversify your portfolio with gold investments, or stay the course with stocks? 💼✨ #gold #InvestingStrategies #Investing

Last week, gold prices broke above $2,300 for the first time ever. Investor demand grows for gold when rates decrease. This may be an attractive opportunity short-term, but be cautious in your long-term strategy. Over the past 46 years, gold has had worse performance and similar volatility compared to U.S. equities. Precious metals are typically a more tactical long-term asset class. Be on the lookout next week for Q1 earnings!

📰✨ Exciting developments in the world of precious metals! Gold continues its impressive run, stabilising above $2,100 per ounce after a stellar week of gains.

Exciting insights on the current trends in the #gold market! JP Morgan analysts predict it will reach new heights by 2025, driven by a weaker U.S. dollar and anticipation of Federal Reserve interest rate cuts, amidst economic and geopolitical uncertainty. With prices expected to modestly retreat during the first half of the year, investors have an opportunity to get ahead of the “breakout rally expected in mid-2024.” If all goes according to plan, we could see gold reach US$2,300 by 2025. https://lnkd.in/dJmk3Uyx #goldmining #investmenttrends #miningbc #mininginvestment #capitalmarkets #goldinvestment

Navigating Volatility: Gold's Role as a Safe Haven August 5th, 2024 In recent trading sessions, gold prices fell more than 2% as investors moved to liquidate positions amidst a widespread equities selloff. Despite this decline, gold's intrinsic value as a safe-haven asset endures, providing a buffer against growing recession fears. Spot gold was down 2% at $2,393.70 an ounce by 11:44 GMT on Monday, with U.S. gold futures losing 1.4% to settle at $2,434.10. This movement in gold prices is part of a larger trend where investors are retreating from riskier assets in favor of more secure options. While gold experienced a temporary dip, its long-term stability continues to appeal to investors seeking protection from economic uncertainty. Meanwhile, palladium reached its lowest level since 2018, and platinum fell by over 4%, reflecting broader market challenges. As we continue to monitor these developments, gold's resilience and reliability remain key considerations for investors navigating this complex landscape.
