For gold fans, there are exciting indicators of how the gold price could continue to develop. And there are various "ratios" such as the gold/silver ratio or the iPhone/gold ratio, calculated by the incrementum team ("In Gold We Trust"). The iPhone has been around for around 17 years. During this time, the price of gold has risen by almost 290 percent. If you paid for a new iPhone with gold, it would once again be cheaper than in the previous year. Whereas the first iPhone cost 0.92 ounces of gold, a year ago (iPhone 15 Pro) it was 0.78 ounces and for the current iPhone 16 Pro it is now 0.60 ounces of gold. However, if you look at the price in US dollars, the new iPhone is 150 percent more expensive than the one from 2007. The iPhone only cost more than an ounce of gold in 2018 (1.13 ounces of gold). This does not include the performance improvements that the iPhone has received over the years.
Some investors also like to look at the gold-silver ratio, in simple terms the gold price divided by the silver price. The gold-silver ratio is currently a good 85, which is relatively high. This means that silver is cheap and a rising silver price or a cheap entry is possible. However, there is no certainty of rising precious metal prices in the short term. However, long-term value retention can be predicted to some extent from history. And the fundamental data for gold and silver should look very good. Another interesting indicator is the Fear & Greed Index, which tells us something about stock market sentiment. This can be fearful, neutral or greedy. It is currently extremely greedy, see CNN Business. This means that many investors are greedy and are betting on rising prices on the stock markets. If this changes again, additional money could flow into the precious metals sector. Whatever indicators or ratios investors look at, investments in gold and silver have always paid off in the long term. Companies with gold and silver should also be in focus.
