A liter of beer costs up to €15.80 this year, around a third more than in 2019. This is not surprising, given that food prices have risen by around 32 percent since 2019. However, gold investors should not be discouraged by the high price. This is because the price of gold has risen by around 30 percent since 2024. For one ounce of gold, Oktoberfest visitors can get 186 liters of beer this year, which is 38 liters more than last year. The only years when one ounce of gold bought more beer were 1980 (227 liters) and 1981. Comparing 2023 with 2025, one ounce of gold is worth 67 liters more. Just like food, if you don't count beer, beer prices in euros have also risen significantly. Although less beer is being drunk, sales of non-alcoholic beer have almost doubled in the last decade. Equally encouraging for gold investors is the development of the price of the iPhone compared to the price of gold. Compared to the price of gold, the iPhone is becoming increasingly affordable. The current iPhone 17 Pro Max requires "only" 0.47 ounces of gold. In 2022, an iPhone buyer still had to pay 0.87 ounces of gold.

An ounce of gold now costs just under $3,825, another jump in price, breaking the important $3,800 per ounce mark. This means that the precious metal has risen in price by around 45 percent since the beginning of the year. Geopolitical crises and risks are continuing to drive investors toward gold, as are the purchasing desires of central banks and a possible conflict between the US president and the US Federal Reserve. Mining companies with gold in the ground are also delighted.
