Gold investment cost is low, and a small amount of money can be traded. In the process of gold investment, gold is mainly traded through leverage, that is to say, you can choose appropriate funds to flow into gold investment, and the other part of the funds can be reserved for yourself to reduce investment risks. Gold investment is relatively stable than funds, and the investment fund market is prone to losses. Once you can't make up your position in time, you are likely to face the risk of liquidation, which means that once the loss may be wiped out, gold investment will be different. Judging from the trend of gold from last year to the present, it took nearly half a year from the highest 1.860 USD to 1.760 USD, and the decline was less than 10%. If we use funds, we can often hear some figures that have fallen a lot, often falling that much overnight. In other words, gold investment can give you enough time to react, but the fund can make you unprepared. Even if gold falls, it won't make you lose everything, but the fund can.
Gold has the function of preserving value, and will not depreciate as badly as real estate, cars, antiques and jewelry. Gold can be made into ornaments or collected. Generally speaking, the risk of gold is small. The risks of funds vary according to the types of funds. Assuming that it is a stock fund or a hybrid fund, the risk of the fund is greater than that of gold. In terms of risk, gold is less risky and more stable. But the threshold for buying gold is relatively high. Generally, you can't buy it for tens of dollars, but the funding threshold is relatively low. For example, Alipay's monetary fund 1 yuan can be bought, and other funds such as stock funds or hybrid funds can be bought. There is no threshold of 10 yuan. Then compare gold, 1 yuan or 10 yuan went to a gold shop and said that he could not buy gold. On the threshold, the fund has a slight advantage. Another point is that buying and selling gold needs to go to the store for trading, and the fund can be directly traded by mobile phone operation, which is more convenient. So generally speaking, from the perspective of risk, gold is superior to funds, while from the perspective of threshold and convenience, funds have more advantages.
