Gold is a store of value in turbulent times

Investors who missed out on the recent rise in gold and silver prices will now be paying particular attention to buying opportunities. It is interesting to note that central banks are not holding back on their gold purchases even when the gold price is high. Central banks around the world increased their gold reserves by 33 tons in April. According to the World Gold Council, Turkey, China, India and Kazakhstan were the biggest buyers of gold. In May, the gold price recorded its third consecutive monthly gain. Even though the price increase in May was not as high as in March and April, the gold price reached a new all-time high of USD 2,427 per ounce in mid-May.

Gold ETFs saw net inflows in May 2024 for the first time since May 2023. The fact that the gold price is so high is not only due to central bank purchases, but also to its attractiveness in uncertain times. And that’s what we have. Central banks, especially in the emerging markets, seem to be moving away from the US dollar and towards gold. As a result, high demand is meeting a dwindling supply. Gold is simply part of a well-balanced portfolio. If you want to hedge against geopolitical risks and the effects of inflation, you should also invest in gold, in physical form and with the stocks of solid gold companies with good projects in mining-friendly regions.

In British Columbia, Tudor Gold – https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/tudor-gold-corp/ – is working on the 2024 exploration program at its Treaty Creek project (gold, silver, copper).

With its Metates project in Mexico, Chesapeake Gold – https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/chesapeake-gold-corp/ – has one of the largest undeveloped gold and silver deposits in the world.
