The view of some analysts that gold’s function as a safe haven is now limited cannot be shared. The ups and downs of the gold price may have been a challenge for investors, but in the long term, investors in gold have always been on the winning side. One need only look at the price development of the precious metal over the last few decades. This reveals a particular stability in value that is hard to find elsewhere. Price fluctuations have always existed, but they have been more pronounced in recent times.

In the 1970s, the price of gold rose sharply after the end of the Bretton Woods system was initiated. Despite subsequent years of price fluctuations, the price remained stable in the long term. Gold has always benefited from inflation fears and uncertain geopolitical situations, such as the financial crisis. The fascination with gold is likely to continue.

Time and again, discoveries of ancient gold treasures rightly cause a stir. Whether it was 1,500-year-old gold pendants and jewelry in Norway, a medieval seal discovered in Great Britain, or an Anglo-Saxon treasure that may have been part of a ritual sacrifice, true treasures stand the test of time. Gold has a special status and is as relevant today as it was long ago, attracting interest from a broad community of investors. This also applies to the share values of gold companies.
