Explanations for the reasons for the sharp rise in gold prices continue to amaze the imagination and make us smile. Next, we will try to cut through the noise in the headlines and simplify what is presented in the market as something very complex.
Essentially, there is only one reason to own gold jewelry - to protect and preserve your wealth, but why is this necessary?

Presumably there must be some "value" associated with owning gold that justifies holding it.
This is true, and there are historical precedents that help explain this value and its applicability to today.

Over 5,000 years of history, many things have been used as money. Only gold has stood the test of time. Gold's role as money has been established due to its practical and convenient use over time.
The value of gold lies in its use as money. Recent history illustrates this principle and helps us understand its importance today:

In fact, on January 2, 2024, the price of gold was $2,064 per ounce, almost 100 times higher than its original dollar price of $20.67.

A hundredfold increase in the price of gold tells us nothing about gold or its value. It only talks about what happened to the US dollar.
This means that the price of gold will only rise significantly when the US dollar loses a significant portion of its purchasing power.

If you want to invest some of your dollars (or other fiat currencies) in something that will retain its value for centuries, then gold jewelry is a great choice.
As stated at the beginning of this article, there is only one reason to own gold: to protect and preserve your wealth.
