Confidence in financial markets is waning – gold is gaining appeal

For thousands of years, gold has been a popular independent store of value, either in physical form or in the form of gold mining companies.

In terms of price, gold has certainly left the summer slump behind. The end of summer is approaching, and traders are returning, bringing with them higher trading volumes. The price of gold spent almost five months in a consolidation phase but now seems to be continuing in the direction it was moving before the summer, namely upwards.

Another factor that could drive the price of gold further upward is the conflict between US President Trump and the Fed, specifically the dismissal of Lisa Cook. This conflict weakens confidence in the US dollar and increases the attractiveness of gold. There are already voices suggesting that the Fed’s independence has already been damaged. The Fed’s expected interest rate cut is also likely to strengthen the gold price.

The gold in the projects of gold mining companies is becoming increasingly valuable. Gold has survived currency reforms, inflation, and crises. In times of crisis or geopolitical upheaval, the security that gold offers is particularly evident. The price is rising. Although short-term price changes are difficult to predict, gold stabilizes portfolios in the long term. Secure storage is essential for physical gold, coins, or bars. If these are held for more than a year, any capital gains can even be realized tax-free. In the case of gold company stocks, a rising gold price ensures that the gold in the ground, and thus the company, becomes more valuable. Gold stocks have leverage on the gold price. Therefore, these should also be considered.
