1 ounce Royal Canadian Mint fine gold bar, spot plus 2% (no sales tax). 912-00669
Most people consider the price of gold relative to a dollar. A of today (May 6th, 2025) an ounce of gold is worth around $4,700.00 Canadian dollars. Comparing gold to currency is likely an inaccurate measure of what gold is really worth. Currency is continually becoming less valuable because inflation continuously diminishes its buying power. The value of gold should be compared to what it can buy. What we mean but this is how much gold does it take to buy the things you need. That could be a car, a whole lot of groceries, or even a house. Here is something to consider. We all know how expensive a house costs nowadays. A decent starter house in Barrie costs around $700,000.00 today or the equivalent of cost to 150 ounces of gold. 25 years ago that same house cost around $300.00 ounces of gold. House prices have shot up around 500% in 25 years but gold has appreciated close to 1000%. Amazing as it seems, gold would have been a much better investment than real estate. An interesting automotive comparison would be this; a Corvette cost around 140 ounces of gold 25 years ago, today a Corvette costs the same as just 21 ounces of gold. Yes gold has been the place to park some extra cash over the last few decades. Where the price of gold is heading is hard to say for sure but the trend is still very positive for gold.
