His six benchmark reports called "In GOLD we TRUST" drew international coverage on CNBC, Bloomberg, the Wall Street Journal, Economist and the Financial Times. He was awarded "2nd most accurate gold analyst" by Bloomberg in 2011. Stoeferle managed two goldmining-baskets and one basket for silvermining-equities.

In 2013 he became managing director and partner of Incrementum AG, based in the Principality of Liechtenstein. The company focusses on asset management and wealth management and is one hundred percent owned by its partners. He will continue to write the annual “In Gold we Trust” as a senior advisor to Erste Group.

His favourite books are “The World of Yesterday” by Stefan Zweig, “Human Action“, by Ludwig von Mises and „The Raven of Zurich: The Memoirs of Felix Somary“ by Felix Somary. His favourite quote is "Whatever you are, be a good one” (Abraham Lincoln). In his spare time he enjoys spending time with this little daughter as well as playing football, jogging and reading.
