One way of investigating risks you face is to revalue the portfolio on the assumption that there is a small increase in the price of gold from $800 per ounce to $800.10 per ounce. Suppose that the new portfolio value is $116,900. A $0.1 increase in the gold price decreases your portfolio value by $100.
