Great overview. Despite many finance "experts" saying they dislike gold because it doesn't generate an income, I've been holding Invesco Physical Gold ETC (SGLP) for the last 18 months in my SIPP and ISA and it has easily outperformed everything else in my portfolio. I only wish I'd bought more! Given the global instability with seemingly never-ending wars, natural disasters etc. and the fondness for gold in growing BRICS countries, I can't see gold dropping in value any time soon (...watch it crash now I've said that! 😆).

[@Peak_times482]

[@minshum]

If crypto is digital gold, gold is physical crypto. I believe that as the world wises up to the effects of fiat currencies, rising sovereign debt, and governments being unable to meet interest on such debt, demand will actally outpace inflation. Finally, by weighting your allocation according to its valuation (using a model such as Ramin's, gold:silver ratio, etc.), and regularly rebalancing, you also get a boost from trading (no prizes for guessing what I've been doing lately) and it also serves as dry powder during crises. Tyler is spot on.

[@tedg1609]

Wait until AI figures out how to empty your crypto wallet. And countries should do nothing, as they rely on fiat currency.

[@Pensioncraft]

Hi @minshum as you pay taxes in your domestic currency it will always have value. Governments take their control of money very seriously. And I doubt that we'll have unsustainable debt spiralling out of control in developed markets - that is very much a tail risk given the fact that budgets are transparent and the electorate is unlikely to keep voting for a party that takes its country over the brink and into bond vigilante territory. But I think from a simple diversification perspective in extremis gold makes sense, as Tyler says. Thanks, Ramin.

I'm late to the investing game and already looking at retirement plans while I learn about finance and portfolios in any depth for the first time! This is one of the most useful videos about gold I've come across and the excellent research article you referenced was a brilliant read - invaluable stuff, my knowledge just shot right up. Now you're my go-to finance ytuber! One (rookie) question about gold: when might the CGT exemption with UK coins sway someone like yourself back from the fund route, if ever?

[@Pensioncraft]

Hi @andrewvickers4487 thanks for that! I personally can't be bothered with something physical such as capital gains tax free UK gold coins as it introduces storage worries (buried in the garden, safety deposit box, safe...) and liquidity worries (how do I sell?, where do I sell?, what price will I get?). Thanks, Ramin.

[@andrewvickers4487]

@@Pensioncraft Thanks Ramin. The reason I ask is that the Royal Mint's storage fee (as low as 1% + VAT) and their buy-back service would seem to ease the concerns you raise. I guess I'll grab a calculator and head further down the rabbit hole.

[@Ratgibbon]

@andrewvickers4487 I'd consider 1% a high fee in this day and age. You can buy a global index found for around 0.15-0.2% and even a physical gold fund aka "paper gold" for a similar fee. Even the Royal Mint has got one for only a 0.25% fee.

[@sezratiberolake]

Good video Sven. The distinction I would make is that this gold cycle has been driven by central banks and central banks buy gold and not miners. But, there is plenty of time for sentiment from the retail investor to enter the formula. Also, you showed Barrick's chart, a company that has most of their mines in Africa. If you show Agnico's, Lundin's, Kinross' or WPM's the take will be different. Geopolitics and sentiment also affect the opinion on what a safe jurisdiction is. Cheers!

You could do a whole video on whether Governments measure inflation correctly. How come the most expensive item most people ever buy (a house) isn't included in the figures? According to the BoE inflation calculator the house I bought in 1986 should be worth about £70000. It is actually closer to three times that ! Rebase house prices to ounces of Gold and you will get a much more sensible value.

The 'no capital gain tax' on british gold bullion actually works in France as well because they have legal tender value in UK (same for other gold coins having legal tender value in their countries, like e.g canadian or south african gold coins have) whereas we have capital gain tax on our Napoleon gold coin because they lost their legal tender value long ago

I am surprised you did not mention the risk of Fiat currency and the loss of purchasing power? With funds you cannot get your investment back in the form of physical gold when you cash in. You only get Fiat currency which in today's world of increasing debt could well be worth much less than when you made your investment. This is why you buy physical (digital which can you swap for physical is a good alternate) in the first instance.

[@IvanIvanov-kn5oz]

Check the same table but starting after 1970. when gold was not linked to the dollar...

[@MrDuncl]

Good point, although I think you will find it was the dollar that was linked to gold. Other countries than linked to the dollar. That reminds me of Harold Wilson saying in 1967 "From now the pound abroad is worth 14% or so less in terms of other currencies. It does not mean, of course, that the pound here in Britain, in your pocket or purse or in your bank, has been devalued.” Since the $ was linked to gold I presume the U.K. price of gold jumped.

He forget to mention that demand and supply drive gold price too, apart from interest rate and USD. I would say the main driver for the gold price increases has been due to strong demand from central banks and institutions. Given the interest rate is likely to come down should lower USD and more geopolitical tensions ahead should continue to power further demand for gold and push its high price even price higher, assuming that supply doesn't outstrip demand.

Gold is real money, so when they continually dilute fiat money the price of gold continually responds.

Agreed, Back in 2020 I did the calculation of the value of an ounce of gold based on M2, the amount of gold owned by the UK state in the vaults of the Bank of England and based it to the 40% coverage of gold to currency the UK ran at the end of the classical gold standard up until 1931. The figure came out at around £90,000 per oz. I recently rerun the calculation following the unparalleled splurge of Fiat in the post COVID period where 30% of all Fiat in existence was issued in the western world. Now equates to £111,110, 22% higher, so maybe a bit more to go to catch up. I'm not sure if we will ever get back to the level of the classic gold standard but it sure is a brilliant hedge against the lack of fiscal rectitude of the political class and has been for the last 5000 years.

Hi @ivivivir stocks are a much better inflation hedge. Incorporating the period since 1971 when gold surged after the end of Bretton Woods flatters the return of gold and that isn't a phenomenon that will be repeated. Any commodity is an inflation hedge because any commodity will approximately match inflation over the long-term. However, stocks generate a considerable risk premium that exceeds inflation.

Thats why I invest in PEWTER ...I own 16 Franklin Mint Civil War Chess Sets ... and many assorted loose pieces ..they keep going up every year in value ...Pewter is the NEW GOLD . .. get in now before its too late ..I am doing well .... check the Ebay Prices ...once Pewter is no longer manipulated, it will soar

Sounds like a rational approach not to buy gold. I converted all my savings to gold in 2022 because of fear of reckless government borrowing and spending, instigating more wars and neglect of society.

Hi @spencerd9325 as I say in the intro it's best to be clear about what gold is and isn't. And also to base those judgments on facts, which I present in this video. As with _any_ investment there are two sides to the argument about whether to incorporate it in your portfolio and I try to present the pros and cons. Thanks, Ramin.

The value of gold is measured in ounces! Not dollars.
