Secure Your Wealth With Our Trusted Gold Coins
Gold possesses an allure and enduring charm unmatched by other investments. Its chemical symbol, Au, derives from 'Aurum', Latin for the glow of sunrise, epitomising the Roman dawn goddess, Aurora. Coveted and valued for over five millennia, gold has played a pivotal role in human history. Esteemed by ancient civilisations and fuelling legends such as the fabled city of El Dorado, this precious metal has intricately woven itself into the fabric of our historical and cultural narrative.
Thanks to its dual nature as an investment and a consumer good, gold has the potential to perform during times of boom and bust. Gold is easy to buy and sell, has a track record for returns over the long term, and is valued by investors all over the world as a way of balancing risk against other investments such as stocks and shares. With a range of gold investment options now available from SA Gold Invest, it has never been easier to get into gold.
Gold Performance
Diversifying investments is crucial to mitigating risk and avoiding over-reliance on any single asset class. Authorities like the World Gold Council recommend allocating between 2–10% of an investment portfolio to a safe haven asset like gold, which can provide stability in fluctuating markets.
The chart below illustrates the annual percentage growth of gold over the past twenty years, comparing its performance against other investment types such as cash, property, stocks, bonds, and gilts.
