As the European Central Bank raised its interest rate by 50 basis points on July 21 in line with the U.S. Fed and the Bank of England, the price of gold in the London Bullion Market Association fell to USD 1,700 per ounce. Recession danger is rising as more rate increases are anticipated. Changing consumer and equity market conditions are reflected in declining physical and exchange-traded fund demand for gold. Desert Gold Ventures CEO Jared Scharf explains us his view.

    In the current rising inflation, what advantage can Desert Gold Ventures offer its investors and what is the distinguishing factors that separate the company from its peers?

    'Traditionally gold has performed as a hedge against inflation but also as a safe haven during times on extreme market volatility and uncertainty like we are in today. Generally speaking, gold equities like Desert Gold are a proxy to the gold price and react exponentially both to the upside and downside.

    If you think we are at or near a bottom in gold now is the time to seriously look at investments in gold equities. Desert Gold’s stands out from its peers due to our regional SMSZ Project 440km2 land package. From an investment perspective we are trading at a deep discount to our peers from a market/oz gold basis.

    Also, if you look at the way we spend our investors dollars, Desert Gold has by far one of the lowest, if not the lowest, discovery cost per oz gold.'
    Jared Scharf, CEO, Desert Gold Ventures Inc.

    Globex Mining, Barrick Gold, Amazon - Gold miners and data collectors: On the hunt for valuable resources

    Gold has always been a safe haven for minimizing risk in a portfolio. The long-established exploration company Globex Mining boasts over 200 properties with various valuable metals in its portfolio. Recently, Globex acquired additional gold fields through a swap deal. Shareholders benefit from the ingenious strategy of preserving the value of the Company's shares - without dilution. The prospects for top dog Barrick Gold are also excellent. Analysts are also confident about Barrick's growth thanks to increased production and a further rise in the gold price. For Amazon and AWS, however, data is the new gold. Smart developers are the most valuable resource as an investment in the future. With a global AI tour in strategically important countries such as India, Brazil, the UK, and France, the tech giant is attracting talent and promoting developments in artificial intelligence. Who is the best hunter of these three candidates and offers the highest added value for investors?

    Is the Aixtron share about to make its next leap? The shock of the profit warning was digested with a rise of over 10%. Three analysts recommend the share as a "Buy". Desert Gold is also ripe for a new rally. After more than doubling in a short space of time at the beginning of the year, it consolidated textbook style. Will it soon jump to a new yearly high? The Company is certainly not expensive, and experts consider a gold price of USD 3,000 possible. Important drilling results are also on the horizon. TUI is currently performing well operationally. The summer season business is booming, and the bankruptcy of a competitor is providing additional momentum. Nevertheless, the share is trending sideways. Could the purchase of an island be the trigger?

    The stock market keeps rising and rising - this much is revealed by the ever-new highs of prominent indices such as the NASDAQ 100, S&P 500, or the Nikkei index. However, a closer look reveals some inconsistencies. For example, only 6% of all traded stocks are currently reaching new highs, while over 70% of all listed stocks have fallen since the beginning of the year. In short, global liquidity is aggregated in just a few blockbuster stocks, with the rest being left behind. Such bubbles already occurred in 1999, 2007, and 2015, followed by a 25% to 50% correction. When exactly this will happen, no one knows, but the party is likely to continue for a while due to high liquidity. Gold and silver are in the process of forming interesting breakout formations. Now is the time to pick the cherries!
