Gold is required in the production of microchips for computers, as well as in the production of luxury goods such as jewelry. The metal conducts electricity incredibly well relative to other types of metals, and also does not corrode easily due to oxidation. It is also very malleable, which means that, while it is an expensive commodity, it may only take very small quantities of it to make a microchip or electronic device work. In 2008, when the global financial crisis began, investors began pouring money into gold, driving the price of the commodity up. Investors generally consider gold to be a safe investment because it is mainly used for investment (while the industrial uses of gold are many, they do not approach the value of investment in gold). Thanks to the topsy-turvy market conditions of the last decade, gold’s price has risen by over 300% since 2001. There are various ways to purchase gold, from buying the metal and storing it in a safe, to purchasing gold certificates, shares, trusts, and futures.
The Gold price today stands as 1097 and falls in a 52 week range of 865 and 1226. Good luck in your trading.
