Why is gold a good investment?
Gold today is a good investment for the same reason it has held this status for thousands of years. This is mostly due to its physical characteristics. Resistance to weather conditions, but also ease of design, provided gold with the prominent place of first choice for jewelry, and subsequently also a significantrole in the industry. The use value of gold ensures its demand beyond the investment sector. For the same reason, the value of gold cannot fall “to zero”, as can happen with securities or shares.
An additional “insurance” that attracts investors to gold is that its lowest price is known. The lowest price is about $900 for an ounce. That is namely the cost of gold mining. This is a very convincing guarantee that the price cannot fall below the level of profitability of gold production.
Finally, an additional advantage of gold over other forms of assets is the ease of monetization. It is very easy to buy and sell gold. It has a universal value that is globally recognized. A gold bar or gold coin purchased from Auro Domus store can be quickly and easily exchanged for money anywhere in the world.
