This mainly depends on the value and advantages of gold investment. Due to the characteristics of gold itself, no matter how old it is, its texture will not change and its value will last forever. It is precisely because of the high price of gold and its special position in the international financial system that gold has become a good investment target, and gold trading has also become a common investment means all over the world. Specifically, the investment value of gold has its unique advantages in anti-inflation, maintaining and increasing value, fair trading without time limit, and convenient physical delivery. Gold investment can not only create huge investment profit opportunities, but also fight inflation, which is one of its advantages. In recent decades, the currency shrinkage caused by inflation is very serious. When it shrinks to a certain extent, paper money will be like waste paper. The preservation of gold makes it avoid the danger of erosion in inflation. You can imagine the difference between buying a suite ten years ago and buying one now. Similarly, if you choose to buy gold now, gold bars will still have the same purchasing power as they do now when paper money depreciates ten years later. Another advantage of gold investment is that its market has no time limit. Hongkong, London, new york and other markets have formed a 24-hour uninterrupted gold trading market, and investors can enter the market at any time. On the other hand, the world open market of gold is not closed, which makes the investment in the gold market more secure, and there is no need to worry about not being able to enter the market in an emergency. What is more reassuring is that the gold market is very transparent and fair. The stock market in any region may be manipulated artificially, but the gold market is a global capital market, and all central banks are involved. In reality, no consortium has the strength to manipulate the gold market, so there is no need to worry about the so-called shady gold quotation.

In addition, the transfer of property rights of gold is very convenient. Compared with industrial investment, such as real estate, gold investment is easy to transfer without complicated transfer procedures. After buying gold, it can be freely transferred as a gift, without any obstacles similar to the registration system, and it can also be converted into cash at any time.

The major gold trading markets in the world today are London, Zurich, new york, Chicago, Hongkong, Tokyo and Singapore, which have their own characteristics in operation. London is the world gold trading center. In London, gold is priced twice every morning and afternoon. The gold market price of that day was set by the five major gold banks, which has been affecting the transactions between new york and Hongkong. The London gold market has two characteristics. First, the trading system is special, because there is no actual trading place in London, and its trading is completed through an invisible way-the sales contact network of major gold merchants. The second is flexibility. The purity and weight of gold can be selected. If customers demand to sell in distant areas, gold merchants will also quote freight and premium, and can also quote futures prices according to customers' requirements. Zurich gold market is a spot trading center, and its position in the international gold market is second only to London. The gold market in Zurich has no formal organizational structure, but the three major Swiss banks: UBS, Credit Suisse and UBS are responsible for clearing and settlement. The three major banks not only do customer transactions, but also do gold transactions. New york and Chicago gold markets in the United States developed in the mid-1970s. At present, the New York Mercantile Exchange and Chicago Mercantile Exchange (IMM) are not only the gold futures trading centers in the United States, but also the largest gold futures trading centers in the world. The two major exchanges have a great influence on the price of gold in the spot gold market. Hong Kong gold market has a history of more than 90 years, and its formation is marked by the establishment of chinese gold and silver exchange society. As the time difference of Hong Kong gold market just fills the gap between the closing of new york and Chicago and the opening of London, it can connect Asia, Europe and the United States to form a complete world gold market. Its superior geographical conditions have attracted the attention of European gold merchants, and five big gold merchants in London and three big banks in Switzerland have set up branches in Hong Kong. They brought the gold trading activities settled in London to Hong Kong, and gradually formed an invisible local "London gold market", making Hong Kong one of the major gold markets in the world.
