Does gold jewelry retain its value? Some people may say that what you said is nonsense. How can gold not retain its value? Don't worry, I'm not talking about gold, but gold jewelry. If you want to figure out this problem, we have to look at the K-line chart of gold prices in the last ten years. Gold reached its highest point for the first time in the past ten years. It happened ten years ago in 2011. It reached 390 yuan per gram, and then this year in 2021, it reached a new peak. I don’t remember too specific numbers. In short, it was 400. many.
At that time, I also just sold a piece of Chow Tai Fook's gold. I remember that when I bought this piece of gold, it was about 8,000 yuan. When I recovered it, I recovered about 14,000 yuan. I must have made a profit. The price reached 142 yuan per gram in 2016. The price of gold has fluctuated around 370 yuan recently. It can be seen that its fluctuation is quite large, especially after the decoupling of gold and the US dollar. The price is on its own and is no longer affected by the dollar.
If you bought gold at a price of 142 yuan per gram around 2016, then you have no doubt earned it recently, but the premise is that you are buying gold bars, and there is another possibility that you are in ten years I bought it in the first 390, and then when you want to sell it today, you will find that it has lost 20 yuan. Of course, this does not mean that it does not preserve its value. From the point of view of preservation, pure gold definitely preserves its value.
After talking about gold, let’s talk about gold jewelry. First of all, let’s make it clear that it is impossible to sell gold jewelry to you at the price of gold. A gold store, whether it is a small store or a big name, can only earn you a gram of gold. A few tens of yuan, then it basically can't go on. The gold prices we see in gold stores are generally 100 to 200 yuan higher. For example, let's check today's gold price, and then look at the gold price on Chow Tai Fook's official website. Do you see the difference? Chow Tai Fook is already a big brand, and the price increase is really not too much.
When the price of gold rises, they have a set of special algorithms to ensure their profit margins, but when the price of gold falls, the price of the gold store will not respond so quickly, unless it has fallen for a long time and does not mean to rise back, at this time they The price will be reduced. Most of the storefronts are charged according to the international gold price during recycling, which means that gold jewelry also has a premium. Of course, even so, gold jewelry is relatively more valuable, and gold has the strongest liquidity. , Prosperity to buy antiques and chaotic times to hide gold, this is an old Chinese saying, it is very reasonable.
