You should be invested in gold and copper

Gold has proven to be a worthwhile investment over time and copper is a commodity with a future.

The US Federal Reserve’s future interest rate policy and further developments in the Middle East should have the greatest influence on the price of the precious metal. The price of gold has risen significantly since the attack on Israel. As a result, the precious metal has once again shown itself to be a means of hedging and also an opportunity for diversification. The Fed has now left interest rates at the current level for the second time. If there are no further interest rate hikes, as many expect, this should mean a further upward push for the gold price.

Even better for the price of the precious metal would probably be falling interest rates. In any case, the end of an interest rate hike cycle has had a positive effect on the gold price in the past. How much further the price can go up, however, is extremely controversial among industry experts.

When looking at industrial metals, copper is particularly in the spotlight. This is because the metal is needed in the electromobility and infrastructure sectors. A look at China, a major copper consumer, shows that GDP growth in the third quarter of 2023 was 1.3% higher than in the previous quarter. Overall, the economy grew by 5.2% in the three quarters of 2023. This speaks for economic stabilization. The fact that the mood is nevertheless not so good is certainly also due to the uncertainties in the Middle East.

In addition, copper production in China set a new record in September. But as a rule, price weaknesses for a raw material lead to tighter supply. And in view of the growing areas of application, the reddish metal should be in high demand in the coming years. Companies that own gold and copper, such as GoldMining or Torq Resources, offer investors the opportunity to position themselves in both commodities.
