Gold has long been revered across civilizations as a symbol of opulence and a reliable store of wealth. In uncertain economic climates, investors often turn to gold as a safe haven, which historically holds its value and even appreciates when other assets plummet. The allure of gold is not merely in its luster but in its ability to act as a hedge against inflation and currency devaluation.
