Gold and trading stocks often move in sync in risky phases. The price of gold and the stock markets have reached record highs. In times of volatility, however, things often go in exactly the opposite direction. This means that when other assets weaken, the gold price usually performs well. According to the World Gold Council, gold has the ability to virtually decouple itself from the stock market in stressful phases. This makes gold unique, as it often outperforms the stock market in these times and is therefore considered a portfolio diversifier, i.e. a hedge against uncertain times.
Investors can choose between gold mining shares, junior gold companies, license companies and shares that pay a dividend. Gold is currently receiving a tailwind from geopolitical uncertainties and economic risks, especially since US President Trump’s second term in office. Since the gold price peaked in February 2025 (USD 2,954.72 per troy ounce of gold), the price of gold has fallen back somewhat.
Perhaps such phases of weakness should be used for investments. It remains to be seen whether the price of gold will soon exceed USD 3,000 per ounce on a sustained basis. The fact is, however, that the existing risks, fear of trade wars and uncertainties will continue to exist and these are precisely the factors that drive the gold price. If investors want to bet on junior mining companies, it is clear that these are rather volatile, but if the right companies are found, they can also score with lucrativeness.
