Calculated in euros, the price of gold has risen by around 30 percent over the past twelve months. Those who invested in gold were thus able to beat inflation. In September 2024, gold rose in price by 3.8 percent. Whatever the price outcome in September 2025, the signs are good. When it comes to the price of gold and September, many will remember the Lehman bankruptcy in 2008. At that time, a single day led to a price increase of around US$100 for gold. It is not without reason that gold is referred to as a safe haven.

Gold’s enduring value was recently demonstrated in Bulgaria, where a 2,100-year-old skeleton was discovered. It was the richest burial mound ever found in Bulgaria. The skeleton wore a unique gold-plated silver wreath on its head, and other gold and silver jewelry was also found. This burial mound was discovered by chance during the construction of a solar park. Gold, silver, coins, and jewels are not uncommon as grave goods. Burying gold and other treasures is still possible today. However, it must be at a depth of around 150 cm, otherwise metal detectors can find it. But hidden valuables were often accidentally disposed of, for example sewn into an old coat, and thus lost to descendants. Whether in the freezer, buried, walled up, or otherwise hidden, there is always a risk that the treasure will be lost. Investments in the assets of gold companies do not have a storage problem. They also have leverage on the price of gold.
