Frequently Asked Questions

Is gold a good 10-year investment from 2024?

Gold has historically delivered positive real returns over 10-year periods approximately 75% of the time. Current structural conditions (high debt, central bank buying, geopolitical fragmentation) have historically been associated with above-average gold performance.

How should I think about gold over a decade?

Over a decade, think of gold as portfolio insurance and a diversifier rather than a growth investment. A 5-15% allocation, regularly rebalanced, has historically improved risk-adjusted returns regardless of gold's specific price trajectory.
