Abstract
The goal of this diploma thesis is to take an insight into the world of investment during unstable economic times based on the example of the selected country, Germany. The thesis seeks to analyze the performance of five different investment options, real estate, REIT, Stock market, Gold and Bitcoin, and compare them, while identifying the most important macroeconomic factors influencing the value of the investment options. The methodology of the diploma thesis is represented by a time series analysis based on the time period between the first quarter of 2000 and the first quarter of 2023. Additionally, the technique of econometric estimation is applied, where, in total, six models are created. In the end, it is concluded that gold is the most superior investment choice, while the least attractive one is the REIT Index, representing indirect real estate investment due to its relatively unstable nature and unpredictability.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
