Gold – the ultimate investment for investors

Gold offers security and value preservation. This applies to physical gold, but also to the value of gold mining shares. The latter generally outperform when the price of gold rises (leverage effect). However, investors have to accept some risks compared to physical gold. Gold mine operators are dependent on production costs and energy prices. Management errors can occur. And political risks in the producing countries should be closely scrutinized. Costs and energy prices have of course risen, but at the current gold price, the profit margins of gold mine operators are still very good. The unanimous opinion is that physical gold should also be combined with mining stocks. Those who attach particular importance to risk diversification could take a look at the royalty companies. Hundreds of holdings often guarantee diversification. The royalty companies also select their partner companies carefully, such as Gold Royalty (North, Central and South America) or Osisko Gold Royalties (North America). They support the mine operators with money and receive license fees and streams in return. Both were able to post record figures in terms of revenue and turnover in 2024.

Gold Royalty – https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/gold-royalty-corp/ -, for example, was able to increase total income, revenue and interest by 146 percent compared to 2023.

At Osisko Gold Royalties – https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/osisko-gold-royalties-ltd/ -, the net smelter return royalty on the Canadian Malartic Complex, one of Canada’s largest gold mines, is a highlight. Whenever the next buying wave in gold sets in and drives the price, perhaps soon above the USD 3,000-mark, royalty companies will be there.
