UBS and Credit Suisse and the consequences

Shortly after the announcement of the Credit Suisse takeover, memorabilia sold like hot cakes.

Gold bars bearing the name of Credit Suisse appeared on online marketplaces, as did blue and red ski caps with the letters "CS". These were popular in the 1970s and now fetched sellers around 200 US dollars. Some buyers also secured Swiss financial history in the form of sports bags or stamps. Because the Credit Suisse brand could soon be over once the merger with UBS is completed. Incidentally, souvenirs related to Lehman Brothers were also in demand during the 2008 financial crisis. Many questions now arise, after all, the merger will create an institution with great market power (1.7 trillion U.S. dollars). Also, after the merger, 25 percent of the Swiss mortgage market will be under one roof. But whether a new financial crisis would have occurred without the merger remains questionable.

In any case, buying gold bars is always a good idea. It is obvious that the banking crisis has triggered a loss of confidence. All the more reason for gold to gain in importance as a safe haven. Thus, large speculators and also small speculators have ensured increases in net long positions. Last year, the gold price averaged around USD 1,800 per troy ounce, and the situation was similar in 2021. So compared to 2019, there has been a significant increase. After all, the pandemic and the Ukraine war, the end of which is not yet in sight, as well as inflation and economic and geopolitical uncertainties also had an impact. Those who do not want to deal with the storage of physical gold, can also put shares in gold companies in the form of shares in the deposit.
