Would You Invest in Gold, BTC, or Stocks?

Over the past 100 years, gold has grown from $20.68 to $2,046 (4.7% annualized), while stocks surged from $20.68 to $412,000 (10.4% annualized). $SPDR Gold Shares(GLD)$ $Invesco QQQ Trust-ETF(QQQ)$

While gold has historical significance, stocks present huge growth potential, evolving from small setups to global enterprises.

Many investors choose to buy physical gold or ETFs for the purpose of hedging, due to its timeless qualities.

However, the debate between gold and stock has been expanding to bitcoin. The approval of the spot ETF is undoubtedly a milestone event.

Bitcoin possess both the safe-haven properties of gold and high volatility of meme stocks. It’s also been criticized as a dangerous bet like gamble. $Grayscale Bitcoin Trust(GBTC)$

    Good question, investing in gold, crypto or stocks? Well for long term investors looking for a safer trade, crypto is definitely out of the choice. Crypto is only suitable for short term trade and it is not something that you can go big and all in. I agree that the approval of Bitcoin ETF might send the crypto stocks higher but the risk is still very high. By the way, you need to be aware that not all crypto related stocks are beneficiary of the Bitcoin ETF approval. $Coinbase Global, Inc.(COIN)$  is an example as ETF trade will affect its business. 

    How about gold? Gold is often looked at as a store of value, but it's also a highly speculative asset linked to currencies and interest rates. However, gold could be an investment product that you can hold for very long and the risk is very very low in long-term. The return might not be speculative but the growth in value is pretty consistent.

    Other than that, I prefer to invest the most in stocks personally, due to a wide varieties of choice in the market, plenties companies and sectors for you to choose. From my investment experience, if you don't want to burn your mind or money, just stick with those big cap companies involve actively in the latest technology such as AI theme recently. A few good example will be $NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$  $Advanced Micro Devices(AMD)$  $Palantir Technologies Inc.(PLTR)$  $Microsoft(MSFT)$ 

    How do you think? Come and join the discussion.

    gold does have its stable , non-out-of-time qualities...

    stock on the other hand is in-between gold and bitcoin...

    bitcoin is too volatile for me...

    for the time being I think I better stick to stocks...

    🌟🌟谢谢 @Tiger_comments 精彩分享👍🏻👍🏻,黄金、BTC或股票, 我会选择投资股票,我也会买入与BTC相关的股票。
    对于币圈投资人而言,基本上对于Coinbase应是再熟悉不过了。身为世界上第二大加密货币交易所,它本身就是一档备受瞩目的加密货币概念股。最近我买入了$Coinbase Global, Inc.(COIN)$,开始也尝到了甜头, 可惜最经这只股像吃了泻药一样, 一直下跌, 感觉不像在投资, 像是在赌博一样。
    在面对加密市场的波动性和不确定性情况下,因为无法准确预测收入,抓到加密市场的涨跌逻辑更为困难,暂时在账面上还是有盈利,我会再继续观察这只股再决定看要买入或买出。
    我相信投资股票能赚到钱, 我会继续留在老虎证券投资。最近多数股票都在下跌, 我会继续等待好时机买入$特斯拉(TSLA)$$微软(MSFT)$$英伟达(NVDA)$,这类有价值的优质股票。朋友们, 请加入评论赢虎币,愿大家投资愉快, 股票大涨, 早日实现财务自由。 @HelenJanet @Ah ping @MHh @TigerStars @Chooer @huaer8497

    A good investment portfolio should balance financial objectives and tolerance for risk. Gold is still the best hedge. Stocks has huge growth potential. I am taking a keen interest in BTC. Bitcoin miners are now in ‘selling mode,’ dumping $450M BTC in a day. With prices and profitability increase in recent months, miners are making big gains with the price of Bitcoin in the range above $42,000. It is worth reiterating that cryptocurrencies are notorious for their volatility. The price patterns and trends vary very much within a relatively short time. It is best to take some time and diligence to learn how to follow the values and market fluctuations.

    Most bank research analyst always advise customer to hold a small portion in gold for the purpose of hedging.


    Last week i asked my HNW friend who is good in FA if he has hold any gold position before. He held physical gold before but the increment was very slow. Slower than a snail 🐌. In the end, he cashed out n breaks even. He told me there is no war in SG. Thus, we dont need gold bar to aid our escape. 🙄


    I always wanted to hold a gold position but i realised $SPDR Gold Shares(GLD)$ is in USD and the movement is very slow. Worse than Reits and UT. 🤦‍♀️


    I think i will be contented with stocks and not BTC. The latter can go in either direction.

  • Gold will go even higher in 2024.

    This is because Gold prices typically go up when there is wars.

    Also Gold perform well during high inflationary periods.

    雖然黃金具有歷史意義,但股票呈現出巨大的增長潛力,從小型企業發展成爲全球性企業。


    由於實物黃金或ETF的永恆品質,許多投資者選擇購買實物黃金或ETF進行對衝。
