I swear by a certain proportion of gold in my portfolio. I always have between 10% and 15%. I always withdraw the 5% after a year with tax-free gains. During periods of weakness, I invest 5% again. This way, the portfolio never falls below 10%.
@Thomas_1963 10-15% gold is hardly noticeable in the long term. The overall performance of the portfolio increases by 0% and the drawdown decreases by perhaps 5%. Why the effort?
@Thomas_1963 interesting. Trade Repubblic still automatically charges you the full taxes amount. --- ah I see why, gold is private whereas the "gold certificate" you buy via a broker such as TR is a security -- and does not fall under private Veräußerungsgeschäfte.
