The tariffs announced by US President Trump could fuel inflation, making gold more attractive as a hedge against inflation. However, if interest rates remain high as a result, this is not so positive for the gold price, as it does not yield any interest. The high level of investor interest can be seen from the ETF inflows in the second half of 2024. The expected figures from the World Gold Council will soon show how much gold the central banks bought in total last year and how demand for coins, bars and jewelry developed over the course of the year. Political and economic disputes continue to cause uncertainty and should have a positive impact on the price of the precious metal. At the end of 2024, gold exports to the US and the UK were very high. Fears of import duties on gold are presumably spreading there too. Chart technicians see the gold price of USD 2,830 per ounce as an important point. Depending on whether the price then goes up or down, a wave of buying or a correction could be expected. Investors rely on gold to accumulate wealth in the long term, to hedge capital or to minimize risk when investing. While high-risk assets, real estate and many commodities fell in value during the global financial crisis, the price of gold rose by 21 percent between December 2007 and February 2009. Gold also stands for liquidity. From a historical perspective, gold has certainly retained its value, unlike paper currencies, which cause assets to dwindle. Gold investments also include gold mining companies such as Goldshore Resources and Southern Cross Gold.
