No currency can rival the longevity of gold in our living history; from the rise and fall of empires to the rise and fall of the market, gold has served as a hedge against inflation and store of value during deflation. As of February 2022, one ounce of gold, not even the size of a mailing stamp, fetches $1,823.58.
However, investing in gold as a store of wealth doesn’t necessarily mean stockpiling bullion gold bars in a vault or rushing to become a Turkish bride where family and friends adorn your gown with pendants of delicate gold that look like they’ll melt away like snowflakes. From investing in shares of gold mining companies or gold exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to trading options and futures contracts, we’re here to help you get started with how to invest in gold.
