Historical gold return calculator

Review a past gold value without turning it into a forecast.

Only available historical observations are used. Missing days or periods produce a clear message instead of an estimate.

Historical return calculator

What would a past gold position be worth today?

The calculator compares a stored daily observation with the current stored reference price. Missing days are never estimated.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Not investment advice.

Annualised (CAGR)

CAGR is the constant annual rate that would connect the start and end values mathematically. The actual gold price did not move at a constant rate; CAGR is neither interest nor a forecast. Premiums, spread, custody, tax and other costs are excluded.

Data basis: Gold Update daily observations sourced from Gold API. EUR uses ECB reference exchange rates stored for each date via Frankfurter. Missing days are not interpolated.
