Abstract

The bachelor's thesis examines the development of the value of investment instruments over a ten-year time horizon, from January 2013 to January 2023. The selected investment instruments are gold, Bitcoin, and the S&P 500 index. The first part of this thesis deals with the theoretical concepts related to investment instruments, which are examined in the second part. The second part of the thesis is devoted to the influences, both positive and negative, that affected the value of investment instruments. This thesis also examines the characteristic behavior of these investment instruments during a recession. Additionally, there is a graphical representation that expresses the percentage increase in value over the entire period of examination. All selected investment instruments had a higher value at the end of the examined period than at the beginning of this decade-long period. Bitcoin was the most profitable investment instrument during this period.
