Degussa Achieves Record Results in 2025 and Remarks on Current Market Volatility as Leading Precious Metal Dealer

The sustained strong demand characterized both purchasing and sales and reflected high customer confidence as well as the appreciation for expertise and product quality. Gold savings plans developed particularly attractively, gaining importance especially among young investors.

Despite increased financing costs due to higher base rates, Degussa was able to continue offering attractive conditions and ensuring a stable, successful business.

The current movements in the precious metals markets demonstrate the lively dynamics of a mature and globally connected market. The recent correction in gold and silver resulted from a combination of factors: expectations of a tighter US monetary policy following the potential appointment of Kevin Warsh, a sharply stronger US dollar, technically overstretched markets after new all-time highs, extensive profit-taking, and CME margin increases triggering additional forced sales. Such developments are part of natural market processes, especially after strong upward phases, and underscore the high responsiveness and transparency of international precious metals markets.

Christian Rauch, CEO of Degussa, emphasizes:

"Physical gold is not a short-term speculative asset. It is a means of preserving wealth – and for many people, a central component in long-term wealth preservation and building. While stocks represent participation in entrepreneurial success, gold embodies the preservation of purchasing power over generations. We do not rely on short-term trends. We stand for stability, substance, and responsible action. For Degussa, what matters most is guiding our clients confidently on their path to long-term wealth preservation and building."

With this record result backing it, Degussa continues to advance towards becoming a digitally strong, innovative, and globally oriented enterprise. The successful year of 2025 forms the foundation for sustainable growth and a future where tradition and progress go hand in hand.
