The Gold Market Today

Despite technological advances and the rise of internet usership, the gold industry is the same today as it was 25 year ago. As one of the most stable asset classes, historically and globally, gold faces several challenges as we head further into the 21st century, and beyond.

Lacking Transparency

As it stands, the global gold market is questionable and lacks oversight.
It is extremely challenging for investors to certify the location and even the existence of physical gold.
The paper gold market is excessively larger than the physical gold market, causing discrepancies between supply and demand.
As of 2021, almost all gold traded in London was unallocated and without legal title, making it easier to trade, but also raising concerns about legitimacy and transparency.

Losing Its Luster

Over the last two decades, gold has had suboptimal returns when compared to equity markets.
More worrisome is that gold is losing its luster as cryptocurrencies are becoming more mainstream.
A growing number of retail and institutional investors are moving away to easier-to-access currencies and away from gold.

Losing It’s Luster

Over the last two decades, gold has had suboptimal returns when compared to equity markets.
More worrisome is that gold is losing its luster as cryptocurrencies are becoming more mainstream.
As cryptocurrencies increase in popularity,a growing number of retail and institutional investors are beginning to  allocate assets to cryptocurrencies instead of gold.

Lack of evolution

Once a main benefit and selling point of gold, it is largely a static asset and does not produce income for its holders until it is sold.
Gold markets operate on outdated technology that provides very little traceability for the underlying asset.
The next generation of retail and institutional investors are favoring 'digital gold' (Bitcoin) and yield producing decentralized finance (DeFi) investments instead of traditional gold investments.
