In the year 2024, gold and silver performed well in the financial market. During this time, gold and silver have given better returns than many other investment options including Sensex, government bonds. On one hand, there is a war between ukraine and Russia, there is also a fierce battle between iran and Israel, inflation is skyrocketing, in such a situation, people invested heavily in gold and silver as a safe investment option. Last year, gold has given a return of up to 27 percent in the financial market.
Investment in gold and silver will also benefit this year
Now talking about the year 2025, experts have suggested that if you want better returns, then you will have to invest more in gold and silver this year compared to last year. Investors who have the ability to take some risk should invest 50 percent of their total amount in large cap and the remaining 35 percent in gold and 15 percent in silver. This will not sink the money and their hope of getting a fixed return will also remain.
Expectation of higher returns on gold remains
Speaking to business Standard about this, Apoorv Sheth of Samco Securities said, given the war-like atmosphere in the world at the moment, it is wise for investors to invest more in gold in 2025 because despite all the fluctuations, its value remains intact, it is an incredible store of value. Apart from this, many central banks of the world are also storing gold in their reserves, due to which there is hope of higher returns on it in the coming times. According to a report, central banks together have bought more than 500 tonnes of gold in the year 2024.
