With the noticeable rise in the prices of gold and silver, an economic expert warned in an interview with “Lebanon 24” against “the risk of indulging in any trading in gold and silver in Lebanon and exploiting the existing price changes, as this process will be a loss-making process.”
The same source indicated the possibility of investing in gold as a “future hedging tool,” but advised avoiding frequent buying and selling of the precious metal, warning that it may lead to unexpected financial losses.
The expert also stressed that global fluctuations are “unmerciful” to speculators and investors, pointing out that the only group that benefits are those that purchased gold at low prices in the past, and are now able to sell it at large profits, taking advantage of the current high prices.
