Gold Sales Spike During Crypto Market Crash, Highlighting Inverse Correlation

From Cointelegraph
<hr>
<blockquote>
Daniel Marburger, Director of Europe-based online gold dealer CoinInvest, claimed the company sold about 30 kilograms of gold, worth over $1 mln, in just one day, Jan. 16, in an interview with Bloomberg Wednesday, Jan. 17.

This week has been very volatile for Bitcoin and several industry insiders cited by Bloomberg believe that investors are looking for more stable assets in the meantime. Bitcoin, along with most other cryptocurrencies, experienced a crash of over 40% this Tuesday, Jan. 16 that lasted until Jan. 18, potentially causing a spike in gold investment.

Marburger told Bloomberg that gold coin sales increased fivefold on Jan. 16, the same time cryptocurrencies were crashing.

“[Tuesday] was a hell of a crazy day,” Marburger said, adding that “emails and phones did not stand still with customers asking how they could turn their crypto into gold.”

<hr>

I've been thinking of buying a 1oz gold bar just to have and look at. More of a novelty investment. Does anyone know if there are certain things to look out for? What is an acceptable markup when purchasing physical gold bars? Obviously I'm not going to get spot market pricing at retail but I don't want to get ripped off.

For 1oz gold coin you shouldn’t pay more then $50.00 markup. For 1oz gold bar you can pay as little as $20.00 markup. Sometimes they have a promotion. I recommend United States Gold Bureau. They have free shipping and 100% free insurance for entire order. I definately don’t recommend buying on eBay or pawnshop. I hope this helped.

Excelente, pero confió también que las criptomonedas pronto también comenzaran nuevamente al alza, las mayorías de las criptomonedas tienen un gran futuro, al igual que el oro.

Makes sense right?  The traditional versus the digital economy, a very polarized economy comparison.  Once gold fails which most perceive it to, the golden age of cryptocurrency will be officially bestowed upon us whether we like it or not.

I have bought a lot of silver and some gold coins lately. I mostly buy coins where I like the design, and it is a well known series (for example Lunar series by Pert Mint) with not too high mintage. Not rocket science really. I am actually thinking about buying this one:
https://www.apmex.com/product/160183/2017-barbados-1-oz-gold-trident-bu. 49.99 over spot. Cheaper if you pay with BTC though.

Gold will probably rise further, not only because of an unstable crypto market. The Dollar weakens as well, so many investors will put their money into save heaven gold. 1500 and more will be easily possible when
it breaks above a long term weekly trend: ![image](https://img.esteem.ws/0w68mxuveq.jpg)

That means higher prices for physical gold, too. 
So now would be a good time to get gold in my opinion :)

Its not surprising that gold and Cryptos have inverse correlation. It was much evident when gold sales went down when Cryptos were on a bulls run. 
It also has an inverse correlation with real estate.
