About the Price of Gold
Many customers are naturally interested in the price of gold. Apart from the fact that gold has proven for many years that it is an ideal store of value, it is natural to also want to see the price rise once you have purchased the metal. However, it is important to remind oneself that the gold value is fairly constant on a relative basis. In other words, anything, including dollars and euros can be expressed in an amount of gold. In that regard, it makes sense not to think of gold’s value in terms of a euro price or dollar price. It is merely a vessel in which to protect your wealth in case of a monetary, economic, or financial collapse.
