Investor Talk, Released on 2/21/25
Interest in gold is increasing worldwide. In South Korea, mint sales are suspended and China is encouraging insurance companies to invest some of their assets in gold. In the USA, there are discussions about revaluing gold reserves, but the effect would be negligible. But is the gold even there? A full audit has not taken place for decades. Elon Musk now wants to make up for it. Either way, the demand for gold remains high, especially from central banks, which are thus avoiding a possible expropriation of their dollar reserves. Pension money in gold? If you have the option, yes. Silver offers a great opportunity at the current high gold-silver ratio, as the historical ratio is 15.
