An Inflation Hedge
Since the beginning of capital markets, gold has proved itself as a reliable inflation hedge. Consider this—the value of one ounce of gold in 1920 (around $20) would buy you a nice suit. Today, one ounce of gold would still buy a very nice suit, but that $20 bill won’t. Data shows that with inflation between 2%–5%, gold’s price rose an average of 8% per year. As world economies grappled with a hyperinflationary environment as a result of the COVID 19 pandemic, gold has continued to reach record highs.
