Will people come back to gold

[ongkok87]

With the current economy, the fears about the Brexit, Italy, the Sino-American problems and the general pessimism among investors; It looks like Gold is coming back the past months. At the same time, countries like the EU, Japan & China are reducing their investments in the economy,
(it should also reduce demand for the USD?)

Even the Central banks are buying more Gold (+13% from the previous year). Economists predict a dark year for 2019 and it seems a lot of large funds are now buying Gold massively. Especially from Asia and Soviets.

Gold's are good investment to begin with. With low volatility it is good to have it and keep. That aside, crypto is the counterpart of it which is more volatile yet it has a higher return.

because at any time the gold will not be abandoned by investors even though there are promising investment places such as crypto, so these two investments will continue to run until later

Gold is a good investment, and its quite more stable compare to cryptocurrency so for sure, those who are hardcore investors will go for this option. We should not depend on one source of income, if there’s a chance to earn in other market much better beside its hard to earn in cryptomarket now so people will really look for alternatives. We have to choose for our own sake, don’t listen to anyone’s opinion and be confident about your investment decision, gold and cryptocurrency are both good investments it just a matter of time.

with the current market conditions, maybe people will come back to choose gold to invest because gold is safer and has a smaller risk of crypto and they don't have to lose a lot of money and become poor in crypto

Gold has always been an important part of a diversified investment portfolio for a very long time and basically nothing has changed that due to how the price tend to increase in response to events that results in the decrease in value of other investments such as stocks, bonds and the likes. We are already seeing that, and obviously looking at the reaction lately with the bullish nature of gold, that simply depicts one thing we all already know.

although the price increase is not like cryptocurrency, but with gold, the trend seems to always be bullish, so many people think that gold is indeed suitable for long-term investment. this has been trusted from ancient times, even from the royal story of my country, gold has become a prima donna for the symbol of a person's prosperity

Lol exactly, since early human history, gold has always been symbolic for wealth and abundance

People never leave gold in the very first place, even years gold never fails and it is useful in everything. And I also believe that gold is suitable for long term investment.

Diversifying your portfolio is valid for these situations. It is not only within the cryptocurrency, diversifying between trading assets can prevent you from loosing. One of these assets is gold that some part of the money should be invested. Covering the volatile movement of cryptocurrency with slow movement of the gold can reduce your loss at least.

I think that gold is one of the most important investments in the economy of any country, it will not be cheaper as for example platinum at the moment. Whether it is necessary to compare investments in crypto or gold. I choose gold. it is more reliable

[Yamifoud]

We can't neglect such thing if they won't find great things in crypto. Investors find ways in order to make their money growing and crypto isn't providing good right now which lead them from shifting into other form of investment. But it doesn't mean, they lift everything in crypto, still business will continue.

[Patient_Zero]

I don't know exactly about the other regions but from ASIA you cannot take gold away. They are crazy about gold and they are ready to invest in gold any time. I think this year investors are more interested in Gold as compared to crypto currency. Now Let's wait for the mid January to have an idea of BTC price.

not all countries in Asia have good internet connections, so indeed for regions that are still underdeveloped it will be very difficult to be able to trade bitcoin, for some regions they are not familiar with bitcoin, so they are more interested in gold investations, but for regions urban areas, especially in developed countries such as Korea, Japan, Singapore and other countries that are already advancing, then the public starts infesting in crypto, there needs to be comprehensive socialization in all regions regarding the experience of bitcoin currencies, if this happens then the public can start investing in crypto currency.

Governments are going to try to avoid that people go back to gold because they cannot control it as well as they can control their fiat currency and there are many suspicions that governments are suppressing the price of gold so people do not get tempted to buy it but at some point they are going to lose the battle against gold if the economies of the world keep performing the way they do.

Maybe will many investor back make investment at gold, many investor have confused with how drop and lower price of bitcoin at this year and never have growing price for bitcoin, they have looking new way how to make money with gold investment.

well, there's no need to doubt an investor, because they might have invested a lot in gold. the question is whether we will return to gold, and the answer is yes. gold is still a valuable thing to date, of course everyone thinks that gold is the best investment.

[tosmartak]

I think that gold could be good investment, gold standard is more reliable than fiat standard, but question will be, is that in favor for central banks and monetary system, I do not think so.

Gold for sure has always been a very good investment, but in the case where there is a possible or looming financial crisis, it is normal for investors to start pulling their funds into a trusted asset, which of course, considering the rate at which gold has been bullish kind of proves that. We all know what sets gold apart over the years is its ability to at least retain its value to some great extent irrespective of external factors.

[PlusOne88]

Maybe or maybe not as their is still hope for cryptocurrency. The only problem that hinders the idea of bitcoin being treated like a gold is the way we look at it today. If we will use it for a good purpose and for a good reason then we can create a real market so that people will never change their minds. The problem is that there was too much FUD and their were too many who are just holding coins and never really trying to make it usable in a realistic market. This is the missing piece for progress of bitcoin.

Gold has been the best investment for thousands of years. Nothing has changed since ancient times. People still believe that if they invest in this precious metal, they can become wealthy with time.

Gold is old form and will always remain as it is approved by the world government and people . Crypto currency not being accepted by few countries and many are undecided yet so gold was and still remain the investment option like previous years it existed .

When you are stress and you are looking for diversions, gold is always a good backup in any form of investment we can see true investors to comeback and divert their money to this form as they knew that opportunities are always open by holding golds as a good assets, afterwards when crypto begin again to erise igh time will come again and investors will reinvest their money back to this market.

[YOSHIE]

Since the past, gold has been made as one of the precious metals that is very desirable for everyone,
For this reason, gold is currently considered as a profitable investment for the wider community.
Bottom line:
1. although today there are many ways to invest, therefore gold remains the number one choice in getting profits in the future.
2. Certainly this is because gold is an item whose price tends to continue to rise and rarely decreases significantly.
3. hence, the more days the desire of people to save gold is increasing.

I conclude that, gold investment is an investment that can provide many benefits for investors. (Good luck and remain careful in carrying out this investment).

IMO the present day fractional reserve system cannot survive much longer. They will need to go back to gold or BTC or whatever.

They are literally printing money to manipulate markets as they please.

Here's a headline you thought you'd never see on Bloomberg: https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2018-12-13/markets-in-turmoil-the-bull-case-is-compelling

"Economic slowdown might be good for stocks"

Let that sink in for a moment. Economic slowdown => Good for stocks???

The only reason an economic slowdown is "good" for stocks is because the FED will print more money to fight the slowdown.

And when they print money YOU don't see a penny of it.

They print money for banks to manipulate the stock markets. It's absurd.

This is not a free market.

Whether it's gold or Bitcoin, they will need to go back to some sort of reserves that limit the amount of financial fraud. What we have today is a massive fraud of unseen proportions.

Right.Gold has never lost its value just like the old times.Even some members of my family are into gold too.But knowing the fact that bitcoin has much more value than gold,so people still chose bitcoin over gold.So when the price of bitcoin continues to drop,gold investment has always been a good revenue too.

but with gold, the trend seems to always be bullish, so many people think that gold is indeed suitable for long-term investment.

Long term:  Gold is flat, it gains nothing as the value of gold is in wealth mostly.  Gold can be industrial to a small extent and it is unique but mostly its too expensive and highly prized in a monetary sense not industry

Short term:  Gold falls often on currency strength, when interest rates rise it combats the 0% yield that gold gives.   Gold can definitely fall in price

medium term:  Gold has fallen since 2011 and this term of 7 years is short to medium term for this kind of asset.     The story is speculation I think and market perception, price is not always accurate and buyers do not declare holdings or purchases to discourage any competition to their reserve accumulation.   I think this is the strategy of the Chinese central bank, Russia is quite plain on favouring gold for a while now
